Permanent Magnetic and Rare Earth Coolant Cleaners
Eriez HydroFlow permanent magnetic and rare earth coolant cleaners are for use with surface grinders, gear grinders, honing and lapping machines, broaches, milling and drilling machines, face grinders, oil reclaiming machines and essentially anywhere else clean coolant is needed.
VLC 200 H Vertical Hobbing Machine
Drivers are already used to the sixth gear, and the development continues. There are plans afoot for an automatic gearbox for a 9-gear transmission system. The reason is obvious, since it allows the car to be driven at optimal speeds for longer intervals and that saves fuel. Together with the continuing pressure to optimize, high volume gear production must become faster and cheaper. The EMAG Group has demonstrated their solution: the VLC 200 H Vertical Hobbing Machine that adds a new dimension to productivity levels.
