The Hoffmann Group has introduced a new module for its GARANT Xpent 5-axis vice to the market. This new center jaw, which can be optionally fitted to the base rail, has now made it possible to clamp two workpieces with just one vice, and to process these in a single operation.

The GPL-V (shaft) and GPL-H (hollow) are the company's lowest backlash (≤ 0.1 arc minute) planetary gearboxes for horizontal and vertical robotic applications. A patented design guarantees that the backlash will not increase over the life time of the gearbox.

DEWALT announces the expansion of its Metal Tool Storage line, including top chests, workbenches, and rolling cabinets ranging from 26-to 52-inches wide as well as 18-inches to 21-inches deep for ample storage solutions. Each is made in the USA with global materials.

The new Cincinnati HMC 800 is a high-performance HMC solution for demanding aerospace, oil and gas, and other industrial hard metal manufacturing applications that require precision machining. The Cincinnati HMC 800 combines high spindle torque and power with superior dynamic machine stiffness, plus, the dual ball screws provide exceptional feed rates: 45m/min, and acc/dec rates of 0.5G.

Today, parts cleaning mostly means to fulfill defined cleanliness specifications. In order to clean as economically as possible, the potential of the cleaning system needs to be fully exploited. This is often prevented by the cleaning container. With the MEFO-BOX system, Metallform has developed a solution whose well thought-out design offers key advantages.

Dry ice cleaning is an innovative cleaning technology that can save both time and money in nearly any manufacturing environment. It is similar to other types of media blasting, but the Cold Jet systems use recycled CO2 in the form of dry ice to clean and prepare surfaces.

KeyedIn announced the latest release of its cloud-based Manufacturing ERP solution and also reported it is migrating its hosting infrastructure to Microsoft Azure. KeyedIn Manufacturing for Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP), focused on delivering increased functionality for custom, make-to-order manufacturers, now allows them to further streamline key front-office manufacturing management processes.

The Surface Treatment global business unit of the Coatings division of BASF, operating under the Chemetall brand, advances the standards with two new products, Tech Cool 35058 and Tech Cool 35037. These metalworking coolants join the innovative and award-winning Tech Cool line of metalworking fluids for metal fabricators.

Thomson Industries Inc. has expanded its line of stepper motor linear actuators with models featuring built-in antirotational guidance. The new motorized lead screw actuator (MLA) product saves designers of high-precision, shorter-stroke applications the cost, time and maintenance worries related to designing and building externally guided systems themselves.

Dialight announced the launch of a new 597 SMD series of LED indicators. The four new indicators offer tighter intensity binning, reduced light bleed, and electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection for high-performance electronics, networking and control panel applications.

Mencom 1 1/8" MIN size III series circular connectors have been redesigned to deliver better connectivity and stability in harsh factory environments.

Harvey Performance Co. announces the release of Machining Advisor Pro (MAP), a tool designed to quickly, seamlessly and accurately deliver recommended running parameters to machinists using Helical Solutions endmills. This web-based tool works within the capability of a machinists' machine, tool and setup to offer tailored, specific speeds and feed parameters.
