Booth 5452: Originally developed to detect excessive vibration levels on bar feeders, the new DTect-IT monitoring system from Caron Engineering is a Windows application that runs stand-alone or can be programmed to communicate with the CNC control to effectively detect vibration irregularities anywhere on a CNC machine tool or fixture. It can also monitor small amounts of force or anything with a 0 to 10 VDC signal through connection of an analog sensor.

Versatile Machine Monitoring Automates and Increases Machine Tool Productivity
The new DTect-IT monitoring system and other advanced technologies from Caron Engineering optimize the cutting process, reduce cycle time, allow unattended operation, provide machine process diagnostics and eliminate operator data entry errors.

Toolroom Lathe for Modeling and Prototypes
Ideal for modeling and prototype shops, TML-5C toolroom lathes from Babin Machine Tool feature a proven Hardinge HLV-H style dovetail bedpate and high precision direct drive spindle to 3,500 rpm, an English/Metric gearbox and optional 5 hp spindle.

High Productivity CAD/CAM Software
To optimize workflow, users of VERICUT V8 CAD/CAM software from CGTech can quickly access only the menu choices and functionality they need at the time with minimal mouse clicks.

Scalable End-to-End ERP Grows with the Business
In the cloud or on premises, next-generation Epicor ERP leverages Microsoft technology for greater access by the mobile-first workforce to Web services, industry-specific ERP software applications and an embedded social media framework.

Comprehensive ERP Software for Small to Mid-Sized Shops
The JobBOSS 12.0 system has been rebuilt for more rapid, incremental enhancements, including over 1.2 million lines of code that have been updated in the core platform to ensure users have the most flexible ERP shop management software now and in the future.

Connecting Machines, Connecting People: Re-Connecting Meaning with Work
FreePoint tools connect any machine to the cloud simply and cost effectively, regardless of machine type, brand or age, and without any modification to the machine, the control, the processes or IT system – often for less than $1,000 and one hour installation time.

Ultra-Precision, High Performance EDM Operations
The CUT E 350 wire EDM from GF Machining Solutions can reduce cutting times up to 18 percent, and their FORM 20 die-sinking EDM can accommodate automation for unmanned production and lights-out operations.

Incorrect Traceability Can Cost Millions
Ideal for harsh environments, Technifor All-in-One lasers from Gravotech offer complete marking accuracy and dependability when traceability matters.

Versatile Redesigned 5-Axis Gundrilling Machine for Complex Hole Patterns
Ideal for drilling complex hole patterns in heat exchangers, manifolds and molds, the rugged DeHoff 2072TC gundrilling machine from Kays Engineering can also perform secondary milling and tapping operations.
