Workcred releases manufacturing credentials report
To help strengthen the quality, value and effectiveness of manufacturing credentials in the U.S., Workcred, an American National Standards Institute (ANSI) affiliate, has released a report funded by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Hollings Manufacturing Extension Partnership (MEP) examining how credentials are currently used in hiring and retention practices, and how credentialing can be improved to advance the manufacturing industry.
Metal Tool Storage Line
DEWALT announces the expansion of its Metal Tool Storage line, including top chests, workbenches, and rolling cabinets ranging from 26-to 52-inches wide as well as 18-inches to 21-inches deep for ample storage solutions. Each is made in the USA with global materials.
GPL-V and GPL-H Planetary Gearboxes
The GPL-V (shaft) and GPL-H (hollow) are the company's lowest backlash (≤ 0.1 arc minute) planetary gearboxes for horizontal and vertical robotic applications. A patented design guarantees that the backlash will not increase over the life time of the gearbox.
Game shop takes 3D printing, laser cutting into “infinite realm”
A game and hobby shop in Girard, Ohio, has taken 3D printing and laser cutting into an "infinite realm." The business, Infinite Realms, started with three men making pieces like rock formations, oil pits and satellites, which were sold online.
Proven ROI in the tracking of tools, production tooling and fixtures
For a business owner or manager it's a frustrating and difficult task to track, manage and keep records on the hand-held tools, production tooling and fixtures, dies and castings that are the lifeblood of your operation. Each category of tool has specific tracking and accounting issues that when addressed have been proven to show a significant return on investment.
MEFO-BOX System
Today, parts cleaning mostly means to fulfill defined cleanliness specifications. In order to clean as economically as possible, the potential of the cleaning system needs to be fully exploited. This is often prevented by the cleaning container. With the MEFO-BOX system, Metallform has developed a solution whose well thought-out design offers key advantages.
Cincinnati HMC 800
The new Cincinnati HMC 800 is a high-performance HMC solution for demanding aerospace, oil and gas, and other industrial hard metal manufacturing applications that require precision machining. The Cincinnati HMC 800 combines high spindle torque and power with superior dynamic machine stiffness, plus, the dual ball screws provide exceptional feed rates: 45m/min, and acc/dec rates of 0.5G.
Automation for high-mix CNC manufacturing: What are my options?
When I'm visiting CNC operations around the country, shop managers often start our conversations like this, "Labor is killing us. We can't find enough good operators and we're losing some of our experienced operators to competitors. What are my options?" The manager often goes on to describe operational issues related to labor that are typical in high-mix CNC manufacturing.
Tech Cool 35058 and Tech Cool 35037 Metalworking Fluids
The Surface Treatment global business unit of the Coatings division of BASF, operating under the Chemetall brand, advances the standards with two new products, Tech Cool 35058 and Tech Cool 35037. These metalworking coolants join the innovative and award-winning Tech Cool line of metalworking fluids for metal fabricators.
Dry Ice Cleaning Systems
Dry ice cleaning is an innovative cleaning technology that can save both time and money in nearly any manufacturing environment. It is similar to other types of media blasting, but the Cold Jet systems use recycled CO2 in the form of dry ice to clean and prepare surfaces.
597 SMD Series of LED Indicators
Dialight announced the launch of a new 597 SMD series of LED indicators. The four new indicators offer tighter intensity binning, reduced light bleed, and electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection for high-performance electronics, networking and control panel applications.
Expanded Line of Stepper Motor Linear Actuators
Thomson Industries Inc. has expanded its line of stepper motor linear actuators with models featuring built-in antirotational guidance. The new motorized lead screw actuator (MLA) product saves designers of high-precision, shorter-stroke applications the cost, time and maintenance worries related to designing and building externally guided systems themselves.
