Tiger AO Cups, Cones and Plugs
The Type 11 cup wheels for grinders are precision balanced to ensure smooth, vibration-free operation and reduce operator fatigue, while wearing at the appropriate level to maximize grind rates. Designed for ID cleaning, hole-edge beveling, smoothing weld seams, bevel grinding, transitioning and grinding in hard-to-reach areas, the Tiger AO cones and plugs for die grinders feature an open-face design that provides an aggressive cut rate right out of the box.
S70 Gen.2
While retaining its user-friendliness, the latest version of Inspekto's flagship edge device offers new and improved characteristics. The first is the possibility to deploy the system in an even higher number of use cases.
BP Chuck
Ideal for CNC lathe applications, BP's large through hole provides tremendous flexibility for virtually any application where a standard chuck is used including: O.D. and I.D. clamping, bar stock clamping and shaft clamping.
PS9xxx Buffer and Redundancy Modules
The PS90xx buffer modules prevent disturbances caused by voltage dips and fluctuations in the electrical grid or by peak loads, so that the power supply units and connected loads can operate reliably and without failure. The PS94xx redundancy modules create a redundant fail-safe supply network.
AP 600, AP 400 and AP 250
Most importantly, they are punching square, rectangular and round openings not only in control cabinet doors and housings, but also in mounting plates, terminal boxes, cable ducts or cable routing plates. The three variants AP 600, AP 400 and AP 250 are suitable for processing switch cabinets or switch cabinet doors with a throat depth up to 600 mm, 400 mm, or 250 mm.
2021.04 CAD/CAM Software Components
Users can now define a fixed contact point on the tool that enables the cone and cylinder to be used for deburring. This makes deburring an attractive option for chamfering because the cone and cylinder leave no imprint of the tool's profile. To ensure a uniform chamfer, the tool is not tilted.
AOV, MFT-R, and PCFC Units
The AOV orbital sander tool is specially designed for grinding and polishing workpiece surfaces. The pneumatic unit is driven by a vane motor and achieves rotational speeds of 10,000 RPM. The MFT-R is the ideal solution for manufacturers who require a particularly flexible and robust polishing spindle for polishing and brushing of workpieces with axial compliance.
VpCI-148 Grease Resistant Paper
VpCI-148 Paper also presents positive environmental aspects and a worker friendly profile. As paper, it is sourced from renewable materials, whereas common VCI plastics are sourced from fossil fuels. Furthermore, it uses a water-based coating for grease resistance, rather than the wax or poly coatings typically used for barrier papers.
MC377 Advance and MD377 Supreme
The MC377 Advance, with protective chamfer, corner radii, and center cutting edge, can be used for chrome-nickel and steel materials, as well as titanium. The MD377 Supreme is a solid carbide milling cutter with a corner radius and central internal coolant engineered for titanium machining.
Renishaw supplies Davis Tech with hi-tech equipment
For more than 30 years, Davis Tech trained thousands of students for a career in industry. With new equipment from Renishaw. the students will have access to advanced metrology equipment.
Eldorado M75-48-R1
The Eldorado reaming machine has only a single spindle and requires manual loading of the barrels and reamer tooling. This makes the Eldorado machine smaller and less expensive, which makes it perfect for low-volume barrel manufacturers.
SW BIG CAPTO Rough Boring Head
The SW BIG CAPTO Rough Boring Head makes it possible to perform rough and finish boring processes seamlessly with the finishing heads it has offered for years. BIG KAISER currently offers the widest range of rotating BIG CAPTO tooling of any provider.
