At the GrindTec show in Leipzig, which will be held March 7-10, Vomat, the filter manufacturer from Treuen, will show machine solutions that the company says will meet the high demands of the industry for cost efficiency with simultaneous sustainability aspects.

Researchers find more flexible, lighter downwind blades can handle stronger winds.

For six years, in conjunction with collaborators at University of Virginia, University of Texas at Dallas, ColoradoSchool of Mines and the National Renewable Energy Laboratory, Lucy Pao – the Palmer endowed chair in the department of electrical, computer and energy engineering – and her team have developed the Segmented Ultralight Morphing Rotor, or SUMR, turbine, a two-bladed, downwind rotor to test the performance of this lightweight concept.

Parts cleaning is critical to achieving precision, process reliability and high efficiency in processes and production technologies.

Vomat developed a new air conditioning unit that converts excess energy from production and peripheral machines, such as grinding machines, oil extraction systems and machine pumps, and can then use it to heat or cool the production hall.

As shown at AMB this month, state-of-the-art grinding, measuring and coating technology used to grind precision tools with high accuracy requires that tool manufacturers be technically up to date and optimally coordinate all parameters involved.

Family-owned and -operated since 1968, Brannon Steel built a strong reputation as one of North America's premier suppliers of carbon steel parts-to-print.

Cleaning processes often offer considerable potential for improvement when it comes to making parts cleaning operations more reliable, economical and sustainable. The first step is to carry out a systematic process analysis that also takes a close look at upstream and downstream production steps.

Milwaukee Tool expands their CARRY-ON™ Power Supply solutions to their M18™ System to bring on-demand portable power to any jobsite. The M18™ CARRY-ON™ 3600W/1800W Power Supply provides the most versatile 15A power, with less hassle.

In 2021, Zac Blume, chief technology officer at Inergy, a solar generator manufacturer, was an early adopter of the Bantam Tools Desktop CNC Milling Machine.

Broaching remains a fundamental operation for machine shops.
