Advanced manufacturing is a key economic driver for northeast Ohio
Advanced manufacturing is a significant driver of the northeast Ohio economy and has been a key factor in the region's recovery from the recessions of the early 2000s and 2008. However, growth in employment in the sector has fallen behind increases in gross regional product, and efforts to address this challenge will require an increase in the area's skilled workforce.
NIMS and Festo Didactic to develop Industry 4.0 skills standards
The National Institute for Metalworking Skills (NIMS), in partnership with Festo Didactic, will establish industry-recognized skills standards and ultimately credentials for jobs related to Industry 4.0. In light of the significant trend in digitalization of manufacturing through technology advancements such as Industrial Internet of Things (IoT), training in these skills is vitally needed now.
Linking two roll lathes doubles capacity without increasing personnel costs
Heinrich Georg Maschinenfabrik has received an order from Vítkovické Slévárny spol. s r.o. for the supply of a roll lathe, the third lathe so far supplied by GEORG to the Czech roll manufacturer. The new machine will be linked with one of the existing lathes.
Vigilant and SafeSite Low Profile/Top Conduit LED Linear Fixtures
Dialight launched its new line of Vigilant and SafeSite Low Profile/Top Conduit LED Linear fixtures, now offering an industry-leading 10-year warranty for reliable, long-life performance with triple the lifespan of conventional T-5 fluorescents even in the harshest conditions, including upstream and downstream oil and gas, petrochemical and heavy manufacturing applications.
Automated Part Clamping
When an equipment manufacturer wanted to automate part clamping for a high-volume casting to be machined in a robot attended machining cell they turned to Kurt Workholding custom engineers for support. After reviewing the initial machining cell and part requirements, Kurt engineers drew upon past workholding experience and designs along with some new developing ideas in air powering workholding systems.
Multi Mini Rhinobar Hydrodynamic Bar Feeder
Lexair Inc. is offering the Multi Mini Rhinobar, a hydrodynamic bar feeder for use with Swiss-style CNC screw machines that features a three feed tube cartridge instead of the traditional single feed tube. The Multi Mini makes multiple stock diameter indexing simple and fast by combining three feed tubes inside a single aluminum barrel.
1/8 NPT Small Internal Mix Spray Nozzles
EXAIR's new 1/8 NPT small internal mix spray nozzles atomize fluids up to 42 gallons per hour. Internal mix atomizing nozzles mix the liquid and air inside the cap and produce the finest atomization. Internal mix nozzles can be used on liquids with a viscosity up to 300 centipoise.
Manufacturing is finally entering a new era
Manufacturing is in the midst of a period of unprecedented change as we transition from the industrial age to the information age. The manufacturers that will prove best able to capture value amid this transition will be those that can best manage complexity and embrace flexibility. A new layer of manufacturing software has emerged to answer this call.
Casting a wide net to attract manufacturing talent
The light is a little too dim for Carolyn Lee, executive director of the Manufacturing Institute at the National Association of Manufacturers. She wants the industry to shine a brighter light on itself and attract the recognition it deserves.
Grinding Machines Integrate Eroding and/or Grinding Capabilities
Based on a highly efficient and productive two-in-one concept, Walter Helitronic Vision Diamond 400 L, Helitronic Power Diamond 400 and Helitronic Diamond Evolution tool grinding machines, from United Grinding North America Inc., integrate both eroding and/or grinding capabilities into single grinding machine platforms.
Integrated Machine Analytics (IMA) Mobile App
Mitsubishi Electric Automation Inc. announces the release of the Integrated Machine Analytics (IMA) mobile app, which allows users to monitor their CNC machines through MTConnect, an open standard that allows universal connectivity. The app is designed for Mitsubishi Electric machines, but will work for any MTConnect-compliant CNC.
Optimization for hire
Mike Gampetro has a great job. As a CNC programmer for the Proposal Engineering Dept. at Ingersoll Cutting Tools, Rockford, Illinois, he spends his days improving customers' machining processes. It could be an Inconel part where Gampetro suggests ways to increase tool life, or it could be a long-runner where every second of cycle time counts.
