Hexagon Absolute Arm highlights
When you need to capture complete measurement data on a machined part, noncontact 3D laser scanning is available to provide "The Whole Picture," which is the title of our cover story in the June 2023 issue of Cutting Tool Engineering magazine.
Nikon Metrology L100 Scanner highlights
When you need to capture complete measurement data on a machined part, noncontact 3D laser scanning is available to provide "The Whole Picture," which is the title of our cover story in the June 2023 issue of Cutting Tool Engineering magazine. Presented here is a video supplement covering the highlights of the Nikon Metrology L100 laser scanner.
Robotics Results: 36% Increased Productivity
For the 16th episode of CTE's Robotics Results video series, Fusion | RoboJob-USA President Craig Zoberis filmed an automation setup that helped a shop increase productivity by 36% using a RoboJob-USA Mill-Assist Essential with a Haas Automation Inc. VF-2SS.
3D manufacturing capabilities create tooling opportunities
Additive manufacturing, or 3D printing, allows Seco Tools to create products that would otherwise be difficult or impossible to manufacture. The advantages include shorter lead times, improved tool life and increased sustainability.
How AIMS improves safety for tool manufacturers
The tool manufacturing industry is embracing automation solutions at an unprecedented pace. This is a worldwide trend driven by several factors, and manufacturers need to be more flexible and responsive than ever before.
SINAMICS S200
Easy setup is assured with the electronic type plate on the 1FL2 motor and one-button tunning in the S200 drive. The integrated brake resistor and integrated holding brake control add to the functions in the S200 servo-drive. High durability is designed in with the coated circuit boards (3C2) in the S200 and IP65 motors with metal connection solution.
SINAMICS S210
SINAMICS S210 offers DC link coupling on 3-phase units for increased power efficiency on multi-axis applications. Corresponding SIMOTICS highly efficient synchronous motors feature high-resolution 22- or 26-bit absolute encoders, single or multi-turn. One-cable connectivity is standard and all motors and feature IP64, IP65, IP67 or IP69X protection.
SIMATIC S7-1500 PLC
The virtual PLC software can be easily downloaded and integrated directly into an IT environment. This ease-of-use gives operators the possibility of decoupling hardware and software requirements completely. The software will run on computers with Industrial Edge Run Time in the factory while the hardware remains directly on the shopfloor.
Reamer Reconditioning Service
Diatool does not limit the times a reamer can be reconditioned, providing an even longer service life of the reamer with no compromise in tool life or cutting quality. Offering standard deliveries of 4-6 weeks and cost savings of 40 percent over new, Diatool's Reamer Reconditioning Service is ideal for machining operations struggling with long lead-times or non-responsive tooling vendors.
SINUMERIK ONE
The CNCs are integrated in the digital twin of SINUMERIK ONE (Run MyVirtual Machine), so that the appearance and operation correspond to the real control in every respect. In addition, the digital twin has been equipped with new features that simplify engineering and work preparation.
SINAMICS G220
SINAMICS G220 is the first drive to join the Siemens Xcelerator portfolio, the Siemens-wide business platform for digital transformation. SINAMICS G220 drives are an integral part of the TIA Portal and feature a digital twin in Startdrive, the drives commissioning tool from Siemens.
Locera Software
The cloud-native software analyzes and visualizes dynamic data, processes events, and can be addressed directly from local MES (Manufacturing Execution System) or ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) systems via API or webhooks. The intelligence acquired based upon position data provides the user with a comprehensive overview of asset tracking, material flow, order information or possible problem areas.
