The Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) has arrived on factory floors, and Makino's new ProNetConneX provides the data and connectivity necessary for intelligent factories to rapidly respond to fluctuating market demands. ProNetConneX offers manufacturers a built-in, instant on-ramp to the IIoT, with secure connectivity to leading software management systems via the MTConnect standard.

Okuma says its new GENOS L3000-M one-saddle lathe is strong, fast and ideal for cutting a range of exotic materials with ease. The integral spindle motor provides increased machining capacity and rigid guideways handle powerful cutting capabilities.

OSG offers the new EXOCARB ADF flat drills. Machining a flat hole traditionally required the use of an endmill and a drill. The ADF drill enables one-step drilling to simplify machining time and tool management.

Aerotech's PRO series industrial linear motor and ball-screw positioning stages are available in new sizes and with new features and significantly improved performance. In addition to the performance and feature improvements, two new sizes were added to the PRO-LM (linear motor) series stage line: the PRO115LM and PRO190LM.

Synova and Makino are joining forces to offer the HybridCell, which combines the power of Synova's Laser MicroJet (LMJ) with Makino's leading edge EDM capabilities. It is a fully automated, manufacturing-ready, work cell that can handle a wide range of hole-drilling applications. The HybridCell consist of a MCS 500 cutting system, along with Makino's EDBV EDM hole-drilling machine.

Raptor-ready dovetail blanks from TCI Precision Metals are custom produced to your specifications and are machine-ready—order from one to thousands with quick turnaround. Each Raptor-ready dovetail blank includes a dovetail feature to match your specified fixture model and arrives machine-ready to go from receiving directly into your CNC machining centers.

Weiler Abrasives Group has rebranded its Vortec Pro abrasive flap discs under its Wolverine family of products, and has also reengineered the discs to deliver maximum cut rate and increased life, all at an exceptional value, according to the company.

J.W. Winco Inc. announced it now has available GN 810 "universal fit," stainless steel, vertical-acting toggle clamps with horizontal mounting base. These vertical acting toggle clamps work according to the toggle principle, as the lever and clamping bar move in the same direction.

Comau presents the extension of its small robot family for quick applications in restricted spaces, including handling, assembly and pick and place, by introducing two new robots: Racer5-0.63 and Racer5-0.80. Both are controlled by the R1C 19" rack-mounted controller, which can be integrated into a single cabinet to control an entire line.

Sumitomo Electric Carbide Inc.'s WDX series large-diameter drill line now includes WDX-L coolant-through models. Reducing the cost per part, the WDX-L indexable drill features side port coolant. Because not all spindles are coolant-through, the WDX-L allows for the use of coolant through the side port.

Mitutoyo announces the ABSOLUTE AT1100, the latest generation of assembly-type linear scales that incorporate Mitutoyo's electromagnetic induction technology, which provides resistance against contaminants such as cutting fluids, oil and water. The innovative shape and location of the detector track in the aluminum frame provides a highly effective defense against the contamination of the scale and sensor, even in harsh environments.

In a major enhancement to its line of grinders, Robert Bosch Tool Corp. has rolled out a lineup of small angle grinders that reportedly feature some of the highest power, greatest durability and most safety-focused options in the power tool industry.
