ProNetConneX
The Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) has arrived on factory floors, and Makino's new ProNetConneX provides the data and connectivity necessary for intelligent factories to rapidly respond to fluctuating market demands. ProNetConneX offers manufacturers a built-in, instant on-ramp to the IIoT, with secure connectivity to leading software management systems via the MTConnect standard.
Flexible Printed Circuits
Fast response, high bandwidth and force, and virtually unlimited resolution make piezoelectric transducers invaluable to modern high tech applications including flow measurement, distance gauging, bio-medical dispensing and aerosol generation, as well as metrology, semiconductor testing, and aerospace technology. PI offers value-added piezo components by adhering flexible printed circuits for easy application integration.
Hybrid Hole Drilling Machine
Synova and Makino are joining forces to offer the HybridCell, which combines the power of Synova's Laser MicroJet (LMJ) with Makino's leading edge EDM capabilities. It is a fully automated, manufacturing-ready, work cell that can handle a wide range of hole-drilling applications. The HybridCell consist of a MCS 500 cutting system, along with Makino's EDBV EDM hole-drilling machine.
Machining Center May Hold Key To Connecticut’s Aerospace Future
"The 30-foot-by-35-foot pit in a concrete floor is empty, shiny and immaculate as it awaits the arrival of a massive machine for use by Connecticut manufacturers to cut, shape and do a range of other tasks with composite materials," writes Stephen Singer in the Hartford Courant.
Small Angle Grinders
In a major enhancement to its line of grinders, Robert Bosch Tool Corp. has rolled out a lineup of small angle grinders that reportedly feature some of the highest power, greatest durability and most safety-focused options in the power tool industry.
ABSOLUTE AT1100 Assembly-type Linear Scales
Mitutoyo announces the ABSOLUTE AT1100, the latest generation of assembly-type linear scales that incorporate Mitutoyo's electromagnetic induction technology, which provides resistance against contaminants such as cutting fluids, oil and water. The innovative shape and location of the detector track in the aluminum frame provides a highly effective defense against the contamination of the scale and sensor, even in harsh environments.
WDX Series Large-Diameter Drill Line
Sumitomo Electric Carbide Inc.'s WDX series large-diameter drill line now includes WDX-L coolant-through models. Reducing the cost per part, the WDX-L indexable drill features side port coolant. Because not all spindles are coolant-through, the WDX-L allows for the use of coolant through the side port.
Racer5-0.63 and Racer5-0.80 Robots
Comau presents the extension of its small robot family for quick applications in restricted spaces, including handling, assembly and pick and place, by introducing two new robots: Racer5-0.63 and Racer5-0.80. Both are controlled by the R1C 19" rack-mounted controller, which can be integrated into a single cabinet to control an entire line.
GN 810 Stainless Steel, Vertical-Acting Toggle Clamps
J.W. Winco Inc. announced it now has available GN 810 "universal fit," stainless steel, vertical-acting toggle clamps with horizontal mounting base. These vertical acting toggle clamps work according to the toggle principle, as the lever and clamping bar move in the same direction.
Wolverine Abrasive Flap Discs
Weiler Abrasives Group has rebranded its Vortec Pro abrasive flap discs under its Wolverine family of products, and has also reengineered the discs to deliver maximum cut rate and increased life, all at an exceptional value, according to the company.
Raptor-Ready Dovetail Blanks
Raptor-ready dovetail blanks from TCI Precision Metals are custom produced to your specifications and are machine-ready—order from one to thousands with quick turnaround. Each Raptor-ready dovetail blank includes a dovetail feature to match your specified fixture model and arrives machine-ready to go from receiving directly into your CNC machining centers.
China won’t own next-gen manufacturing
With rising salaries, labor unrest, environmental devastation and intellectual property theft, China is no longer an attractive place for Western companies to move their manufacturing, writes Vivek Wadhwa. "Technology has also eliminated the labor cost advantage. [China] built its dominance in manufacturing by offering massive subsidies, cheap labor, and lax regulations.
