Cool combination: Turning Performance
Reduce coolant use by pairing a fluid flow-altering device with a coolant management system.
XPR105MCP Multichannel Pipette Calibration Balance
The results of a single dispense of up to 12 channels are calculated in under one minute. The unique and innovative XPR105MCP tests each pipette channel individually on the same load cell to ensure equal measurement performance. The load cell is protected from any spills to ensure lifelong performance.
Connected workers can improve maintenance quality
Connected worker technology is revolutionizing asset management. Maintenance teams are using various solutions to streamline both routine and complex maintenance tasks.
ONMX Inserts
The latest Pramet range includes three variants of a 16-edged ONMX insert for depths of cut up to 0.157" (4mm). The standard geometries include the F for light operations, M for versatile use, and R for rough cuts in a variety of materials. Additionally, the 8-edged ONMX-W is a specific wiper insert for high-quality surface finish with large cutters and high feed rate.
ModuleWorks 2023.04 Software
Users can choose between the climb or conventional cutting methods and define the contact point between the tool and the workpiece, e.g. in the middle of the flute. This is relevant for non-ball cutters like chamfer mills where careful control over the cutting conditions creates chamfered edges with a high quality finish.
HALCON Version 23.05
With HALCON 23.05, it is now possible to further optimize the underlying deep learning networks, which are already pre-trained on industry-related images, for the user's own application. This allows even more robust recognition rates for Deep OCR applications as well as an even more reliable detection of suitable gripping surfaces for applications using 3D Gripping Point Detection technology. In addition, there are many other helpful improvements, such as the fact that external code can now be integrated into HALCON more easily.
Two-Press Production Cell
The two-press production cell uses a centralized control station which sets the operating parameters of both presses and controls the action sequences of both FANUC robots. All equipment in the cell is automatically updated with new process parameters when changing between products. n
GF divisions schedule grand opening of facility in Mexico
GF Machining Solutions and GF Piping Systems broke ground on their Apodaca, Mexico, joint headquarters late in 2019. Construction of the 75,000-square-foot facility is now complete, and company leaders are hosting a grand opening celebration May 3.
Toolpaths for Powder-Bed-Fusion (PBF)
Integrated into the Rafinex solution, the ModuleWorks software generates highly automated, collision-free toolpaths for PBF. The workflow enables users to quickly program resilient, high-performance parts for production where expert knowledge of the manufacturing process is not required. The pre-defined parameters assist engineers in optimising the workpiece geometry for the PBF process to generate a toolpath and NC code that automatically minimises material waste.
Composites manufacturing with advanced programming strategies
Advanced programming strategies and simulation can lead to the production of better composite parts, according to CGTech.
