Elysium will release software for multiple-CAD to/from QIF for translation and validation between users. The added capability will be part of the new release of ASFALIS software planned for early 2020.

Mencom's new LP1-E45UM-5 low-profile Panel interface connector has combined two of the most common and versatile components utilized by today's integrators, machine builders and panel shops. The new innovative design frees up valuable DIN rail space by moving the reliable, robust and cost-effective unmanaged Ethernet switch to the side of the cabinet.

Tool-Flo presents FloCut, a multifunctional system for both external and internal applications. Its unique locking system yields increased stability, critical for side turning applications.

Kurt gaging systems can provide 100% production inspection with fast cycle time and are critical to manufacturers of machined components. The gaging system is fully automated and capable of measuring a series of features for two machining operations.

Tungaloy is introducing ReamMeister, an interchangeable head reamer system. ReamMeister is a high precision, interchangeable head reaming system capable of reaming holes in an H7 diameter tolerance range. The ReamMeister tools meet the requirements of high accuracy reaming because the head geometry's diameter and runout accuracy is strictly controlled when being finished by precise grinding and the taper-and-face contact connection guarantees high concentricity within very close limits.

Carr Lane Manufacturing Co.'s pivoting edge clamp is well suited for holding large castings and other tall workpieces, and converts easily from manual to hydraulic operation, making it versatile and flexible. The pivoting jaw exerts clamping force forward and downward at the same time.

THK America Inc.'s new Roller LM Guide Type HRX is designed to meet the demands of a variety of applications and environments. The Type HRX boasts a duplex face-to-face structure (DF Structure) and a full roller design for resilient performance in even harsh settings.

Absolute Machine Tools partner PCI SCEMM (a Tongtai company) has introduced the e-Spindle, a new electro-spindle that integrates sensors and actuators to monitor cutting processes and adjust parameters to optimize tool life and workpiece quality.n

Blue Photon Technology & Workholding Systems LLC's workholding products are a manufacturer's solution to hold parts for tight-tolerance machining and inspection. Complex-shaped, hard-to-hold parts and delicate materials like ceramic and laminated composites are well suited to the technology, which supplies up to 605 lbs. of tensile holding power per patented gripper.

How can we make an outstanding product even better? By meeting the needs of Industry 4.0 – not in the future, but now. With the Power Clamp Comfort i4.0 shrink-fit system, Haimer is setting new standards regarding digital connectivity and communication of tools and machines for the new world of manufacturing.

PFERD has introduced VICTOGRAIN, a new high-performance abrasive grain whose design features make it one of the most effective abrasives in the world. Its precision-formed abrasive grain triangles are identical in shape and size. Their cutting edges are applied to the workpiece at the optimal angle so that each individual grain needs little energy to penetrate the workpiece.
