Universal Robots announces the immediate availability of the UR16e, which boasts a 16 kg (35 lbs.) payload capability. The new UR16e combines the high payload with a reach of 900 mm and pose repeatability of +/- 0.05 mm, making it suitable for automating tasks such as heavy-duty material handling, heavy-part handling, palletizing and machine tending. With UR16e, Universal Robots is introducing the highest payload and best pose repeatability in this reach class.

No. 841 is a 650° F (343° C) universal oven from Grieve, currently used for a variety of heat treatments at the customer's facility. Workspace dimensions of this oven measure 36" W x 36" D x 36" H. 9 KW are installed in Incoloy sheathed tubular heating elements, while a 600-cfm, 1/2-hp recirculating blower provides universal airflow to the workload.

The latest fiber laser part marking solutions from Dapra Marking Systems offer fast cycle times and precise, repeatable, non-contact marking of metals (hardened and stainless steel, anodized aluminum, copper, precious metals), plastics and more. New 200i Series systems feature a compact marking cabinet (18" wide x 20" deep x 17" high) that is ideal for shops that need to mark nameplates and smaller parts for identification and traceability.

The new Star NXT linear CNC tool and cutter grinding machine sharpens both straight and spiral gash hob designs up to 8" OD x 10" OAL.

Walter has introduced the M4130, a shoulder milling cutter that reduces costs through its ability to use Walter's universal M4000 system inserts in a variety of different applications. It's soft cutting action makes the M4130 shoulder milling cutter ideal for roughing operations involving steel, cast iron, stainless steels and materials with difficult cutting properties.

Sawing PVC piping has never been made more easier, thanks to the new PVC Handsaw from BAHCO.

Wildeck Inc. announces the launch of a new pick module impact gate, the Finger Gate. This durable steel gate easily integrates into any facility and provides a strong, protective barrier at elevated work levels, helping facilities achieve their automation goals.

Dialight launched a new series of heavy-duty panel mount indicators designed for rugged environment applications, such as power, status or warning indication in manufacturing, construction, mining and oil and gas equipment.

Mitutoyo America Corp. announces the release of the QM-Height series high-performance height gauge to its small tools line. The QM-Height is used to measure height, height difference (step), inside/outside widths, inside/outside diameters, circle pitch, free-form surface maximum/minimum heights and height difference by scanning measurement. It features an accuracy of ±(2.4+2.1L/600) μm, and a built-in pneumatic flotation system enables smooth movement over a surface plate.n

A drill, a milling cutter, an ultimate machining strategy with perfectly tuned parameters; this is needed, when machining medical screws made from titanium or stainless steels. Mikron Tool developed a turnkey solution, which simultaneously does the machining of hex lobular bone screws (better known as Torx) 50% faster, guaranteeing also a high degree of precision of the profile and achieving nearly burr-free results.

Open Mind has added to the hyperMILL CAD/CAM suite: One of the world's leading CAD/CAM solutions for satisfying the requirements of industrial 3D printing processes has been further complemented by hyperMILL ADDITIVE Manufacturing. As a universal software solution, hyperMILL – together with this option will provide efficient hybrid processing with simultaneous additive and subtractive processing on one single machine.

The Optimizer, an optional module in the hyperMILL VIRTUAL Machining simulation solution from Open Mind, enables users to improve NC programs based on the kinematics of the individual machine. The machining process is simulated by using a digital twin. This enables the users to overcome the complexity associated with alternative setup and orientation options in 5-axis machining.
