Michigan Metrology to host surface metrology & tribology course
Livonia-based Michigan Metrology will host a short course on surface metrology and tribology on May 9-10. Dr. Don Cohen, an expert on surface roughness and its effects, will lead the course. Topics to be covered include instruments for measuring texture, surface texture parameters, wear, friction, sealing, data analysis and more.
Manufacturers to Ohio: Jobs are Coming
Ohio is soon to benefit from new job-creating investments by a number of major manufacturers. The Dayton Business Journal reports that companies including General Motors, Navistar International and Whirlpool have announced projects that will add to the 885,539 manufacturing jobs the Buckeye State currently boasts.
Lever-Type Dial Test Indicators
Mitutoyo America Corp. announces the release of lever-type dial test indicators with increased durability, sensitivity and readability. A wide array of styli and ruby tips allows for probing of many applications. Stylus length is marked on the dial face to assist customers when ordering replacement styli.
GN 303 and GN 303.1 Zinc Die Cast Adjustable Levers
J.W. Winco Inc. offers GN 303 (with steel components) and GN 303.1 (with stainless steel components) zinc die cast adjustable levers with push-button, threaded-stud type. The adjustable hand levers with push button, which are RoHS compliant, have proven to be ideal wherever parts have to be clamped in a confined space or in a particular lever position.
PlasticMetal Two-Component Repair Technology
Stronghold Coatings introduces PlasticMetal, a two-component repair technology that can be mixed in various ratios for small and medium repairs to many types of metal. Unlike pre-mixed polymers, which have a set viscosity, this resin and powdered metal system can be mixed in small quantities in thicknesses to suit particular application requirements.
ECA 4000 Ring Encoder
HEIDENHAIN updates its kit angle encoder line by modifying the ECA 4000 ring encoder to be able to survive and provide angular motion feedback within various machine types using a vacuum environment. Now able to handle a vacuum environment down to 10-7 mbar, the ECA 4000V encoder series has had a number of technical updates to accommodate high resolution and accuracy inside the vacuum chamber.
Force Gauge
American Workholding Inc. offers Force Gauge, an effective, lightweight, mostly hand-held, direct-reading gauge. It gives an operator, setup man or quality control individual an instant and accurate reading of actual lbs/tonnage force data for many shop floor situations.
Yaw-Tilt Rotary System
IntelLiDrives Inc. offers the yaw-tilt rotary system. The integrated 2-axis rotary assembly provides high-speed micromachining capabilities for complex 3D part geometries and for general testing, purpose pointing, scanning and tracking applications for small optics, antennae and other sensors.
µV5 (micro V5) Micro Milling Machine
Mitsubishi Heavy Industries Machine Tool Co. Ltd. has developed the "µV5" (micro V5) micro milling machine, the latest in its µV (micro V) series. The µV5 has a bigger working surface table and wider process stroke than the current µV1, allowing for high-efficiency machining with micrometer-level (1/1,000 mm) precision for large products or those that require fine milling using small diameter tools, such as molds for car optical components.
Alphacam 2017 R1 CAM Software
The latest edition of Alphacam, from Vero Software has new features ranging across the modules, making it easier to use and improve productivity.
Leveraging the right tools makes the difference
Running a small to medium-sized machine shop business presents many challenges. Alliance Broach & Tool, East China, Mich., has been in the business of building its operations and client base for more than 35 years; the company knows about some of these challenges. In spite of a tough economic climate, however, Alliance continues to significantly grow.
Cut & Form Solid-Carbide Endmills
Emuge Corp. has introduced Cut & Form solid-carbide finishing endmills that feature a patented tool geometry that performs two functions: cutting and polishing in one operation, generating significant manufacturing time and cost savings.
