Choosing cutting media for mass finishing
When mass finishing—finishing many parts simultaneously—in a vibratory finishing system, the tendency is to use ceramic or plastic preformed cutting media, said Steven Schneider, technical sales manager at surface finishing company Kramer Industries Inc., Piscataway, N.J. Ceramic tumbling media are made with abrasive filler, much like a grinding wheel.
Automated deburring lab at Matrix Design
For our February issue's Industry Briefs department, I'm writing an article about the Deburring Application Laboratory at Matrix Design LLC. The company designs, builds and installs robotic automation systems for deburring parts, as well as machine tending and material handling.
Surviving the Spare Parts Crisis: Maintenance Storeroom & Inventory Control
The maintenance spare parts business is in turmoil. There have been fundamental changes in the sale, distribution and storage of spare parts needed to maintain machinery and other physical assets. The key to uptime in manufacturing is managing risk, and "Surviving the Spare Parts Crisis: Maintenance Storeroom and Inventory Control" by Joel Levitt describes how to evaluate risk in the inventory.
6 x 12 Bench Surface Grinder
Suitable for small shops, Palmgren's 6 x 12 bench surface grinder is an economical option because it has many of the same features found on larger units. The grinder's Meehanite cast iron construction reduces vibrations while maintaining rigidity and accuracy.
Series 300 Electronic Weld Head
Amada Miyachi America Inc. announces that its state-of-the-art Series 300 electronic weld head offers the precisely controlled weld force profile suitable for miniature parts welding. Originally released more than 20 years ago, there are more than 1,000 Series 300 electronic weld heads in use all over the world, with more than half going into operation in the last decade.
Softwall Clean Rooms
Softwall clean rooms from HEMCO Corp. are designed to meet ISO 5 – ISO 8 requirements and feature a flexible design that allows them to locate over and around equipment, with the option of being mobile with casters. The structural framework is of aircraft anodized aluminum with clear vinyl curtains around the unit.
Precise Shot Peening Machine
Guyson completed a precise shot peening machine for a customer in the automotive/marine industry. This small footprint machine is equipped with a spiral separator (media shape separator) to ensure that the S-70 Mil Spec media is correct spec shape to guarantee the intensity that is required to adhere to AMS-2431/ 2E.
AC8000P Series Grades for Steel Turning
New from Sumitomo Electric Carbide Inc., AC8000P Series Grades for steel turning features advanced Absotech Platinum CVD Coating for a longer tool life and an overall cost reduction in steel cutting. For exceptional performance, the AC8000P series consists of this patented CVD coating, a new surface layer and a smooth surface treatment from the crystal orientation process.
100-Watt Fiber Laser FOBA Y.1000
The new 100-Watt fiber laser FOBA Y.1000 operates up to 40 percent faster than common 50-Watt lasers and allows for marking substrates that are usually difficult to mark with other models. It applies robust marks on heavy wear products to ensure abrasion-proof legibility.
Why coding will be the next generation’s manufacturing
While manufacturing jobs dominated in the 20th century, many believe that coding will have a similar impact during the 21st century. "I think we've lost the ability to make things," said Adam Enbar, co-founder of Flatiron School, on Fox Business' "Wall Street Week." "Americans love to build and create and make things.
Tensile Testing Service
In a continuing quest to enhance customer service, Solar Atmospheres of Western PA has expanded its wings by adding another type of mechanical testing to its repertoire: tensile testing. Tensile tests are essential in determining and understanding the ultimate strengths of materials.
Machine Enclosures
Machine enclosures from Hennig Inc. are designed to protect operators from injury and valuable machinery from the environment. The company's engineers work closely with customers so that their enclosure fits all the requirements for an application (i.e, ventilation, power inlets, conveyor openings).
