When an equipment manufacturer wanted to automate part clamping for a high-volume casting to be machined in a robot attended machining cell they turned to Kurt Workholding custom engineers for support. After reviewing the initial machining cell and part requirements, Kurt engineers drew upon past workholding experience and designs along with some new developing ideas in air powering workholding systems.

Lexair Inc. is offering the Multi Mini Rhinobar, a hydrodynamic bar feeder for use with Swiss-style CNC screw machines that features a three feed tube cartridge instead of the traditional single feed tube. The Multi Mini makes multiple stock diameter indexing simple and fast by combining three feed tubes inside a single aluminum barrel.

EXAIR's new 1/8 NPT small internal mix spray nozzles atomize fluids up to 42 gallons per hour. Internal mix atomizing nozzles mix the liquid and air inside the cap and produce the finest atomization. Internal mix nozzles can be used on liquids with a viscosity up to 300 centipoise.

Mitsubishi Electric Automation Inc. announces the release of the Integrated Machine Analytics (IMA) mobile app, which allows users to monitor their CNC machines through MTConnect, an open standard that allows universal connectivity. The app is designed for Mitsubishi Electric machines, but will work for any MTConnect-compliant CNC.

Based on a highly efficient and productive two-in-one concept, Walter Helitronic Vision Diamond 400 L, Helitronic Power Diamond 400 and Helitronic Diamond Evolution tool grinding machines, from United Grinding North America Inc., integrate both eroding and/or grinding capabilities into single grinding machine platforms. From a production standpoint, the two-in-one concept lets users completely erode tools (PCD) and completely grind tools (carbide) using the same machine to eliminate the time-consuming task of moving workpieces to a second machine.

Star SU LLC is pleased to announce it has expanded its comprehensive gear manufacturing product offering to include a line of horizontal hobbing and gear shaping machines available in the North American market.

The new Eriez NanoRanch A.I. (Artificial Intelligence) Sorter uses vision to identify and sort a vast and customizable range of nonferrous materials, providing greater than 95 percent accuracy when the machine is trained with samples.n
