Okuma showcases new standard in 5-axis machining
Take a look at the GENOS M460V-5AX with one of Okuma's machining center product specialists. This 5-axis vertical machining center is specifically designed to manufacture high-precision parts.
653 and 654 Series Snap-In Panel Mount Indicators
Dialight announced the launch of two new snap-in panel mount indicators for application in mounting holes over one-half inch. The new 653 and 654 Series, for 0.57" (14.7mm) and 0.657" (16.7mm) mounting holes, are our first snap-in panel mount LED indicators for mounting holes exceeding one-half inch, filling a gap in the industry for applications in process machinery, warning light panels and other indoor and enclosed applications. Both products are available in red, green, yellow and blue.
ETEL TMB+ Torque Motor
To greatly simplify the implementation of liquid cooling with torque motors and ease the mounting into direct-drive machine applications, ETEL announces that its TMB+ torque motor can now be ordered with a closed cooling jacket pre-built around it.

Custom Deep-Hole Drilling Modules
Investments in conventional deep-hole drilling machines can be very expensive. SOMEX, a member of the Suhner Group, offers custom deep-hole drilling solutions capable of drilling up to 12mm diameters and as deep as 100 times the diameter. These modules can be integrated directly into transfer machines, special-purpose machines or conventional machines such turning machines. The potential for cost savings is substantial.
Consumable Kits for XPR X-Definition Plasma Systems
Hypertherm is shipping consumable kits for its XPR X-Definition Plasma systems. These new consumable starter kits are available with or without a torch for mild steel and nonferrous cutting applications. The kits include a variety of consumables to allow for cutting at different amperages, using all of the gas process types supported by the XPR170 and XPR300 systems.
E2.1 Series Chain
A new energy chain from igus in small and medium sizes is quieter, stronger and dramatically reduces assembly time. The new E2.1 series chain saves users 50 percent on installation time, and adapts to the requirements of the machine. The chain offers long service life and silent operation, and in the future, users will be able to choose the ideal energy chain or the correct energy tube for reliable cable guidance for over 850 different variants.
Automating a CNC lathe has become a lot easier
With easier programming and simpler tooling, Lathes are, for the most, part robot-ready
High-Load Ball Screws
Thomson Industries Inc. has introduced a ball screw with more than twice the load capacity of a standard ball screw. The redesigned ball screws handle more than double the load capacity or provide 10 times the service life compared to standard ball screws at equivalent performance points – along with Thomson's characteristic German-engineered precision, high reliability and exemplary stiffness.
