Harrington Hoists Inc. has introduced its RCB Ex-certified spark-resistant hand chain hoists and RPT/RGT manual push and geared trolleys. These products are manufactured with materials that will reduce risk of sparks produced by impact or friction in heavy-duty industrial applications.

Harman Corp. announces the availability of low-cost dip molding for custom shipped caps, plugs or handgrip applications. Harman offers in-house design and tooling capabilities and can provide prototypes within 7 working days. Tooling costs for dip molding are 1/10th the price of injection molding, according to the company.

Schaffner EMC presents PQS3, an update to their acclaimed Power Quality Simulation tool that allows planners, consultants and application engineers to accurately model and simulate low-voltage, 3-phase network topologies. With this online tool, users can simulate complex power networks and receive rapid answers to challenging power quality issues.

In 1978, LACH DIAMANT discovered the use of spark erosion as a means of forming polycrystalline cutting materials and allowing for the production of rotating PCD tools, e. g. step drills and profile tools. Since then, PCD diamond tools have established themselves in metal, wood and plastic industries all over the world.

Walter has launched a major extension of its turning geometry program with new products that bring Walter precision and reliability to a range of new applications. Extensions include the FM4 positive inserts.

Machinery + Planning Inc. offers the vertical MTTF-C 30 C-frame Machine from Maplan. A 300kN version is added to the 200kN machine. A further extension with 400kN and 500kN clamping force is coming soon.

Machinery + Planning Inc. off the fully hydraulic Maplan MTF 1500/250 from the new MTF-range. As a vertical beam injection molding machine, it brings the topics of user-friendliness and ergonomics to the forefront, according to the company.

Machinery + Planning Inc. offers an optimised 3,000kN MHF 700D/300 horizontal injection molding machine, which is ideal for economical production of seals and O-rings, for example. Thanks to its extreme opening width with extended tie-bars, hydraulic nozzle lifting (Maplan Duale) with variable nozzle immersion depths and an extremely short nozzle, the machine provides extremely high flexibility and compatibility when using very different tool concepts, regardless of whether the tools are thick, flat, large or small.

HEIDENHAIN offers the new QUADRA-CHEK 3000 evaluation electronics system for high-precision measuring machines. With its sleek industrial design, is right at home on the shop floor or in clean room environments.

The latest version of Siemens' NX software (NX 11) reportedly delivers a breakthrough in digital product development with Convergent Modeling, a new modeling paradigm that simplifies the ability to work with geometry consisting of a combination of facets, surfaces and solids, without the need for time-consuming data conversion. Convergent Modeling will help engineers optimize part design for 3D printing, speed up the overall design process and make reverse engineering a far more common and efficient practice in product design.

All Sensors Corp. has announced a brand new low pressure sensor, the DLHR series. This new devices series reportedly offers design engineers superior performance over lower pressure ranges of 0.5 to 60 inH2O, compared to the DLH. The DLHR series provides higher resolution than any other fully compensated low-pressure sensor on the market, according to the company.

Okuma's new V920EX one-saddle, vertical lathe features a powerful turning spindle and a large work envelope, making it ideal for cutting a variety of large, heavy parts. The V920EX boasts a work envelope with a maximum turning diameter of 36.22" and 33.86" of swing over the saddle enabling it to accommodate large, odd–shaped workpieces.
