Solar Manufacturing Inc. relocating
Solar Manufacturing Inc., Souderton, Pa., a manufacturer of advanced industrial vacuum furnaces, is relocating its headquarters to Sellersville.
Generation change at Mapal
Dieter Kress announced during his 75th birthday celebrations that he planned to gradually step down from the day-to-day business.
Safety Suite Software and Specialized Electronic Tags
Honeywell announced a simple cost-effective way for companies to improve productivity and regulatory compliance by connecting their existing inventory of personal protective equipment (PPE) using Honeywell's cloud-based Safety Suite software and specialized electronic tags.
View from Earth will do just fine, thank you
While placing a telescope outside the distortion of Earth's atmosphere may seem like the best way to study the cosmos, CTE Editor Alan Richter holds a different view after the Giant Magellan Telescope Organization Corp. reached out to explain how it's working with Boeing Research & Technology on an Earth-bound telescope that will minimize distortion from the atmosphere.
Collision detection minimizes damage to machine tool, workpiece
Last year, Sandvik Coromant Co. introduced its CoroPlus Collision Detector, which is designed to effectively use data to minimize damage to both a machine tool and a workpiece in the event of a crash.
Thermocouples embedded in coating of cutting insert measures tool/chip temperature
By using thermocouples embedded in a cutting insert's coating, a team of researchers at the University of Wisconsin-Madison successfully overcame the challenge of measuring the tool/chip interface temperature.
Machining parts more efficiently, while increasing part size
END USER: Sonaca Montreal Inc., (450) 434-6114, www.sonacamontreal.com. SOLUTION PROVIDER: Fives Liné Machines Inc., (450) 372-6480, www.fivesgroup.com. CHALLENGE: Machine aerospace parts more efficiently and precisely while increasing part size. SOLUTION: A 5-axis, high-rail vertical gantry mill.
Effectively cleaning parts improves bottom line
Many nonmanufacturing people would be surprised by the amount of resources expended on parts cleaning, but it is a critical aspect of part quality. Failure to maintain a rigorous cleaning program can cause significant issues in complex assemblies.
Advancements in digital vision systems make measuring parts simpler, more repeatable
The biggest benefit a digital vision system provides is the machine's ability to automatically measure parts, whereas the human operator influences a manual analog measurement device, such as an optical comparator.
Inverting the spindle on a vertical turret lathe can make a great lathe even better
Vertical turning lathes have a significant drawback: the chips fall onto the workpiece where they are subject to recutting. By inverting the spindle, chip problems are virtually eliminated.
Maximize preventive maintenance for machine tools
Shutting down a machine tool for just two or three shifts per year for maintenance can make a huge difference in boosting productivity and reducing machine downtime.
Proper way to measure feature concentricity
In a recent blog post, Joshua Jablons, president of Metal Cutting Corp., Cedar Grove, N.J., discussed a topic that leaves many machinists scratching their heads: What is the proper way to measure feature concentricity on a round workpiece?
