Losing my religion, part two
A blade and knife manufacturer for the lumber industry suggested that it might have to close its plant in Michigan. The largest nail producer in the U.S. has laid off 60 workers and warns that it may be forced to move its factory to Mexico.
By the numbers: The global state of labor in manufacturing
Regardless of which area of the world you're in, lack of labor is a pervasive problem that has the potential to cripple the global economy. Fortunately, automation in many forms can help bridge the gap and fill holes on the factory floor, doing jobs that humans just don't want—and can afford to turn down.
A60 and AG60 Inserts
Walter has introduced the new A60 and AG60 inserts for small to medium pitch threads. Just like the existing MX geometries (CF5 and GD8 for grooving and parting, RF5 for grooving and copy turning), the new MX geometries A60/AG60 provide long tool life, fine surface quality and process reliability. The inserts have four cutting edges.
The role of smart sensors in manufacturing
Sensors have played a role in manufacturing for years, but until recently they have been largely constrained by issues such as system noise, signal attenuation, and response dynamics.Today, integration of local computing power and the internet of things has transformed ordinary sensors into smart sensors, enabling them to carry out complex calculations on measured data locally within a sensor module.
TVM20 and TVM35 Field of View Video Measurement Systems
Vision Engineering has announced the general availability of its brand new class of TVM Field of View (FOV) video measurement systems. TVM combines a small footprint, with larger system performance and ease of use. Time-saving instant FOV measurements and a moving stage allow larger components to be measured quickly and easily.
Shuttle XP Vertical Lift Module Equipped With Access Ready Lights
The Kardex Remstar Shuttle XP Vertical Lift Module (VLM) can now be equipped with Access Ready Light technology to improve picking productivity and accuracy. This new light tool now available helps operators visualize when the tray is in the access opening and ready for picking or putting.
MERCURIT, HERMESIT Grinding Belts and microlite polishing discs
Pneumatic and hydraulic cylinders are omnipresent. Whether as compressed air cylinders on boot lids, on a lifting platform in the workshop or in highly complex machines that make modern construction projects possible. The following applies to all of them: They have high demands with regard to low-wear movement and a long service life.
Instant Polish and Ultimate Shine Flap Discs
Walter Surface Technologies released two choices for polishing and finishing projects: Instant Polish for fast, single-step finishes and Ultimate Shine for superior mirror finishes.
