TRD Family of Vertical Machining Centers
FlexDrill CNC introduces the TRD family of vertical machining centers, which drills, mills, taps and bevels large or long parts in a single setup. Alternately, the long open bed, coupled with the movable safety light curtain, allows multiple setups, so that while the TRD is machining one part, another is being loaded (or offloaded).
Microteq Microfinsher CNC Finishing System
A single-station CNC microfinishing system processes a family of 68 aerospace control surface actuation shafts to better than 0.1 Ra, while creating a functional surface for the component. Other tribological surface parameters are used for this post-grinding application on HVOC (tungsten carbide) coated steel shafts.
Handte Oil Expert Mist Collector
Collecting mist from lubricant oils used to cool machining processes is critical to protect workers' health and meet OSHA requirements. The Handte Oil Expert from Camfil APC helps facility operators reduce exhaust emissions to meet the current OSHA 5.0 mg/m3 exposure limit for oil mist.
