With the aim of creating a more intuitive, easier and faster way to control industrial robots, Comau releases PickAPP, an Android application to perform "pick and place" operations in a completely new way.

Kurt's new pneumatic zero-point clamping system runs on existing shop air readily available in every machine shop. The Kurt DockLock Airline system is a high precision system, which can reduce setup time over 90 percent by rapid change-out of large and small machine fixtures.

The latest version of WorkPLAN ERP, from Vero Software, has been developed for the specific requirements of production management, in terms of mobility and rapidity from the design phase of a project, right through to delivery of the end product.

The new Version 7 of the LaserNet 200 comprehensive particle analyzer series from Spectro Scientific provides extensive analysis of particles in lubricating and hydraulic fluids. Compared to earlier releases, the new series increases particle counting range up to 10 million particles/ml without dilution, and includes a new set of ferrous particle measurements that gives users new insights into the progress of machine wear.

Move a sump cleaner safely through plant between collection, treatment or disposal with CB6 walk/ride transport base from CECOR. Sump cleaner is mounted on a battery-powered pallet truck with stand-on platform for easy driving.

No. 1002 is an electrically heated, 500º F (~260º C) cabinet oven from Grieve, currently used for various test procedures in the customer's laboratory. Work space dimensions measure 20"W x 20"D x 20"H. 8KW are installed in Incoloy sheathed tubular elements to heat the unit, while a 400-cfm, 1/3-hp recirculating blower provides horizontal airflow across the load.

Siemens offers a new version of its Safety Integrated (SI) function for Sinumerik 840D sI in the form of its Safety Integrated plus — software for integrated control solutions. Previously, completely separate programs had to be written for the NC Kernel (NCK) and PLC. Now, this will only be necessary for the PLC.

The Sinumerik Operate user interface has been further developed to enable even more easily manageable and intuitive operation of machine tools. This gives machine tool builders the opportunity to develop their own individual design in keeping with their corporate identity, lending machine tools a contemporary, distinctive look.

The KL-200 double-cut shears from Kett Tool cut cold-rolled steel, stainless steel, plastic and Formica without warping or bending the finished piece. The result is less wasted material, and a savings of time and money for manufacturers and contractors.

EXAIR's 1/2 NPT internal mix 360 degree hollow circular pattern atomizing spray nozzle atomizes fluid and sprays away from the nozzle in all directions, up to 13 feet in diameter. These nozzles are ideal where a liquid application is needed in a broad area, such as dust suppression, humidification and cooling.

Beckhoff announced the new EL922x EtherCAT Terminal series, which directly integrates electronic overcurrent protection to safeguard 24 V DC system components in the EtherCAT I/O system. In comparison with currently available protection devices, costs and space requirements in control cabinets can be reduced without having to use conventional, inflexible stand-alone systems.

The newly-released version of WorkNC from Vero Software introduces two important new tools to the portfolio: a direct modelling CAD system and a Robot Module, making offline programming of robots easy, even for inexperienced users. Described as "the right CAD for CAM," WorkNC Designer is a powerful new application focusing on the specific needs of machinist programmers, enabling users to create designs or modify existing geometry from third-party CAD systems.
