Protecting man, woman and machine
CNC machine tool owners with a healthy concern for their employees are advised to enclose their machines in protective structures.
Protect proprietary company information: People & Companies
Complying with sensitive information requests may be necessary in some circumstances, but it's possible to provide too much information, which might expose proprietary processes and technology and put a company at a competitive disadvantage.
Big market for colossal parts
In his March 2018 Lead Angle column, CTE Editor Alan Richter takes notice of developments in large-part machining and previews an upcoming shop profile about Coldwater Machine Co.'s expertise in producing short runs of fairly massive components.
Shop grinds out niche and soars beyond the competition
Many manufacturers in the aerospace industry depend on high-precision, complex specialized cutting tools and want them as quickly as possible. However, not all tool grinding shops can meet that challenge. Almar Tools Inc., Camas, Wash., is one that can.
Nanodiamond-Enhanced Filaments for 3D Printing
Finnish nanodiamond manufacturer Carbodeon and Dutch 3D printing specialist Tiamet 3D have announced nanodiamond-enhanced filaments for 3D printing. The Carbodeon/Tiamet 3D filaments are based on a jointly patented technology, which significantly improves the mechanical and thermal properties of 3D printed items.
WCK10 Ceramic Cutting Grade
The new WCK10 ceramic cutting grade from Walter is optimized for roughing gray cast iron at high cutting speeds, with either continuous or interrupted cutting. The inserts deliver improved productivity, process reliability and longer tool life due to their new Si3N4 wear-resistant ceramic cutting material.
CP6x00 Control Panels and Panel PCs
Beckhoff Automation announced the release of new CP6x00 control panels and panel PCs with 10.1-inch widescreen displays. The expanded line of entry-level panels from Beckhoff, first launched with 7-inch displays, has been expanded by three new cabinet-mounted devices, each with a 10.1-inch widescreen display.
Brankamp CMS-02 System for Collision Monitoring
Marposs Corp. has announced the availability of its new Brankamp CMS-02 stand-alone system for collision monitoring and crash damage mitigation in machine tools. The system employs a ceramic strain sensor to detect irregularities in the production process by measuring elastic deformation in the range of 0.1 microns, and both slow and dynamically increasing forces which have damage potential.

Losing my religion
There's a Sands Casino where the Bethlehem Steel Corp. once stood. The casino was completed in 2009, just 8 years after the 100-year-old steel company filed bankruptcy. Ironically, the biggest obstacle facing the casino's developer was a shortage of structural steel.
Feeling queasy about automation?
Not only is automation continuing to displace workers at manufacturing companies, the thought of being ousted by a robot is making some workers at those plants feel sick. That's according to a study by three Ball State University researchers and a Villanova University professor.
Cloud-based Remote Support Platform
Kardex Remstar is launching a new cloud-based Remote Support platform, which focuses on continuously monitoring the status of a customer's installed systems and remotely maintaining them when necessary. This new digital solution for condition monitoring and maintenance of automated storage systems will reportedly enable customers to use their machines at maximum efficiency.
