Report details striking range of developments in additive manufacturing
Wohlers Associates Inc. announced the publication of Wohlers Report 2019, the 24th annual installment of its industry-leading report on additive manufacturing (AM) and 3D printing. The worldwide study provides the "pulse" of the industry by reporting on growth, development and the future of AM materials, applications, systems, services, design, software, patents, startups, standards, investment and research.
Metalworking inspired by the stars
Recently, even astrophysicists have started taking an interest in EMO Hannover. Garching, Germany-based Dr. Theo Steininger and Dr. Maksim Greiner, former PhD students at the Max Planck Institute for Astrophysics in Garching, have developed artificial intelligence software that makes use of the latest statistical analysis methods developed for astrophysics.
SPTM EXJ Thread Mill
Scientific Cutting Tools offers the new SPTM EXJ thread mill. The SPTM EXJ is an economical tool engineered for cutting external UNJ threads. It features a single thread profile that is ideal for keeping side-cutting pressure low.
High-Performance Helical Chamfer Mills
Scientific Cutting Tools Inc. announces a new line of high-performance helical chamfer mills. The helical cutters are significantly freer cutting and impart a smoother finish than the standard straight-flute alternatives. The variable-helical flute design provides high sheer, reduced side cutting pressure and improved chip evacuation, thus achieving extremely high performance.
Coated HSS cutting tools account for 70 percent of overall sales
According to a new study, sales of high-speed steel (HSS) tools in 2019 are estimated at nearly 218,000 thousand units, projected to register a Y-o-Y growth at 4.8 percent over 2018. HSS tools sales have witnessed sheer proliferation, despite intense competition from solid-carbide tools, as these are best suited for shop production environments, wherein tool cost and versatility are of paramount importance.
SCANtek 5 Coordinate Measuring Machine
LK Metrology Inc. has introduced a new ALTERA coordinate measuring machine called the SCANtek 5, which is coupled with Renishaw's REVO-2 scanning system and multiple-sensor technology to offer manufacturers a 5-axis solution for inspecting dimensional accuracy and surface finish of components.
DX6 CrossOver Hydraulic Vise
The Kurt newly designed rotary table workholding system is designed using the Kurt DX6 CrossOver hydraulic vise with a trunnion mounted onto a 4-axis rotary table. The system uses double-acting hydraulics, which is desirable for automated part loading and unloading via a robotic system. Additionally, the system can be used for manual part loading and unloading.
VLM Synchronous Servomotor Series
Kollmorgen has launched the VLM servomotor series to fill the gap between stepper and high-performance servo motors. The new VLM series synchronous servomotors offer OEMs, machine builders and end users, an excellent price-performance proposition in the torque range of 0.5 to 4.5 Nm continuous and 16 Nm peak, with speeds of up to 6,000 rpm.
GP42 and GP56 Planetary Gearboxes
For applications that require a high torque, Nanotec offers new planetary gearboxes in two sizes and many reductions: the GP42 gearbox is designed for all motors with NEMA 17-flange, as well as the DF45 external rotor motors from Nanotec. The GP56 gearbox can be combined with all brushless DC and stepper motors in sizes NEMA 23 and 24 (56/60 mm).
Model ZDM-3 Vertical Displacement Microscope
Titan Tool Supply Inc. announces the introduction of its Model ZDM-3 vertical displacement microscope to measure minute variations in height. The Z-axis electronic depth measuring microscope features a built-in LED co-axial illuminator to allow the user to focus on the top or bottom of the part being inspected.
Smart Hemmer Symmetrical Roller Hemmer
Comau is taking a quantum step forward in digital-enabled solutions for lightweight vehicle manufacturing with its new robotic roller hemming process. Fast, flexible and precise, Smart Hemmer is a compact, symmetrical roller hemmer able to hem any complex joint.
µCMM Optical Coordinate Measuring System
So far, geometries such as the bore holes of injection valves in the automotive industry, for example, could hardly be measured optically. Lateral probing of components with vertical surfaces was limited to tactile measuring systems, CT solutions or complex special solutions. This changes with a new function of the optical coordinate measuring system µCMM from Bruker Alicona.
