Lotus Cars Ltd. launches its most accurate sports car ever
Lotus Cars Ltd. is known for the design and manufacture of high-performance cars born out of legendary success on the racetrack. Its latest sports car, the Emira, is by far the most accurate model ever built by Lotus thanks to the use of a 5-axis HC-90TR twin-arm coordinate measuring machine from LK Metrology.
Optimal cleanliness leads to the next optimal step
Parts cleaning is critical to achieving precision, process reliability and high efficiency in processes and production technologies.
2500 Ton Compression Molding Press
This 2500 Ton Press is part of a seven-press order which is currently being built in their main facility. The press also features an innovative mold transfer system which significantly improves the ergonomic and safety dynamics for operators, and reduces the press idle time between cycles.
NextMeasure 3D
Using NextMeasure is easy. Once the software is downloaded, anyone on the team is able point and click to take the required measurements. Because the solution is universal and works with all major sensors and portable measurement devices, upgrading and evaluating equipment is straightforward; multiple platforms can be evaluated from a single user environment.
Solvents for parts made of different materials
The production of high-precision parts with complex interior geometries requires top quality along the entire production chain. In order to be optimally prepared for future cleanliness requirements, a Swedish manufacturer replaced one of its existing solvent cleaning systems. They chose an Ecoclean EcoCcompact fitted with Ultrasonics PLUS, to mention only one of the system's features.
Vapor
The VAPOR platform has unique elements in body design and TRI-X2 insert geometry for higher metal removal rates and extended tool life. VAPOR is ideal for extreme machining with modern machine tool technology.
BallFinishNose
BallFinishNose is an effective tool in finishing and semi-finishing, particularly on geometric surfaces and complex 3D contours common to die-mold or aerospace applications. The insert features a unique asymmetric shape. This design allows users to use the same side of the insert always facing the same direction when set in the tool body, providing the tool with high repeatable accuracy and reliability, surface quality and predictable tool life.
Post-processing AM parts with wet blasting
Additive manufacturing is not perfect, and one area where significant issues reside is in the surface finish of AM parts as they come out of the build chamber or off the build plate.
2900 and W2900 Indicators
Starrett 2900 Series Indicators are equipped with RS232 output and compatible with 2900 SCM, SCU and SCKB cables, while Starrett W2900 Series Indicators, which have all the same features and capabilities of the 2900 series, are fully wireless and equipped to send data for SPC analysis at the push of a button with no cables required. Both the 2900 and W2900 series are available in ½ ", 1", 2" ranges and new 4" range models, inch-metric models in 1/2", 1", 2" (12 mm, 25 mm and 50 mm) and metric only models in 12 mm, 25 mm and 50 mm ranges.
Series 800 and 1200 Custom Setup Stations
Available in diameters of 800 mm and 1200 mm (custom sizes per application requirements), the Series 800 offers a maximum swing of 1100 mm and max weight of 1500 kg for the fixture plate and components. The Series 1200 features a maximum swing of 1700 mm and weight of 2000 kg. Both models feature an RPM of 0 to 3 and are available in voltages of 220, 240, 380 and 480.
Explorer CNC Milling Machine
This small machine weighs 42 pounds and ships in a Pelican case for ease of storage, transportation and portability. It can run off a regular electrical plug, battery or generator — for use at home, in the office, in the classroom, garage or workshop and even on the road (or camping on a mountaintop).
Helping electric vehicle manufacturers compete
Power skiving is the fastest-growing method of gear machining.
