Product News

Ransohoff, a division of the Cleaning Technologies Group LLC, has introduced a new modular automated cleaning system. The RBS Modular System is an automated immersion cleaning system that can be expanded as needed to meet your process requirements.

Backed by decades of nanopositioning experience, PI delivers motion control solutions for optimizing manufacturing process and quality control, speeding up data and information transmission, and developing better medical diagnostics and therapies.

The L.S. Starrett Co., a global manufacturer of precision measuring tools and gages, metrology systems and more, has introduced a custom designed and manufactured Chordal Height Gage (a.k.a. DO Gage) to be used for measuring the opening heights of turbine vanes at specific locations to verify that an aircraft engine will get proper air flow.

The saw features an advanced gear box design utilizing taper roller bearings, hardened and ground steel gears with a high-quality bronze worm gear in an oil bath. Secure clamping of the workpiece optimizes its accuracy. The saw delivers burr-free straight or angle cuts.

Custom PCD and carbide cutting-tool maker West Ohio Tool continues to exceed customer expectations with a recent expansion to its product and service offerings. For those manufacturers machining ferrous metals, hardened steels and superalloys, the company now offers CBN-tipped tools that boost cutting efficiency and provide extended tool life.

Magid has taken coreless cut protection to the next level with DX+ Technology®.

The addition of touchscreen technology to the unit’s control boxes will enhance communication with the machine operators.  With a simple “touch”, operators will be able to display many of the machine functions in real time.

The new blisk module provides parameters and settings for creating very smooth toolpaths for multiblade machining. Smooth toolpaths ensure consistent acceleration and, therefore, shorter cycle times. The new option for the flatland cycle enables operators to machine flat undercut areas using slot milling tools.

Walter's new copy turning system for internal machining boosts tool life, cuts tooling costs, and can increase indexing accuracy by 50%.

For proper material preparation The KBC Pneumatic Hand Chamfering Tool allows you to remove burrs easily and quickly to create a uniform edge with repeatable accuracy up to almost 1mm depth, prepare metal for welding jobs and clean them up after, and a host of other needs in the machine shop or on site.  The bearing runs along the edge of the surface while two carbide inserts chamfer the edge for smooth results.  (Replacement standard triangular tip carbide inserts, TCMT-09T3, are available.)

Squich HNM (High Number of Mating) inserts are designed to maximize ease of use while minimizing maintenance downtime. These rectangular inserts feature special contacts with galvanic high-performance gold plating and lubrication, which allow up to 10,000 mechanical mating cycles when installed in compatible HNM enclosures. In addition, the Squich spring clamp technology with actuator buttons provides not only fast & reliable wiring but also high resistance to vibration from industrial applications.

Product details that provide reliability, long-life and ease of operation include: User-friendly touch screen HMI that makes it easy for operators to change temperature settings and monitor all activities. High efficiency scroll compressor that reduces vibrations for smoother, quieter operation.

KCK20B and KCKP10 are suitable for wet or dry cuts. These include rotor hubs used in windmills, pump housings, steering knuckles and gear housings for heavy equipment, and automotive components like crankshafts and cylinder heads. While KCK20B delivers higher productivity in roughing and semi-finishing operations, KCKP10 is applicable for finishing operations, but also works exceptionally well when profiling and copy milling cast iron and steels up to 45HRC.

The FPC 8 is controlled by Fastems’ Version 8 Manufacturing Management Software (MMS) which offers a new single-view user interface with drag-and-drop production orders, EasyRoute feature for bringing new workpieces into production in under 60 seconds, and an advanced automatic Order Generator for recurring orders or maintaining a certain stock level.

The special profile of EMUGE SELF-LOCK threads allows an even distribution of stress over the entire thread length, eliminating slippage. Compared with standard threads, EMUGE SELF-LOCK internal threads show constant, maximum holding power under dynamic stress. Functions remain in good operation even with repeated loosening and re-tightening of the thread connection. The locking effect is caused by the ramp-shaped surface integrated into the thread profile,

The LaserSmart 510 Femto with its innovative and powerful femto-second laser source provides unlimited machining possibilities. This laser source has a femto-second pulse width which is 1,000 shorter than a pico laser. It is built on the success of the Rollomatic LaserSmart® series of machines. This revolutionary process allows users to achieve the results that set new standards in ultra-hard material machining.

This simplified process focuses on the fundamentals every new ERP user needs to know to get started. No customization, no advanced functionality – just the basic, core processes that facilitate a smooth transition from the company’s previous business management system to Global Shop Solutions. New customers that don’t meet the requirements and prefer to launch their ERP system with more capabilities can opt for Global Shop Solutions’ standard implementation process. These implementations require more preparation and often include advanced functionality and customizations, which can take additional time and resources for a successful Go Live.

Whether for downstream processes or to ensure the lasting and reliable function of a product, rising requirements for particulate and filmic-chemical component cleanliness are increasingly causing cleaning tasks to be shifted to clean environments.

Eriez Round Spout Separators are available with manual easy-to-clean or automatic easy-to-clean functionality.  The manual easy-to-clean design provides for a push/pull operation to strip accumulated tramp metal from the grates without physically handling the magnet. The automatic easy-to-clean version uses a set of pneumatic cylinders to automatically clean the magnetic grates at the touch of a pushbutton or timer control.

9D LADAR’s accurate data collection of production measurements represent the next generation dimensional inspection solution. 9D LADAR captures both dimensional and surface geometry data targeted at automotive, aerospace, and transportation manufacturing industries.
