Monitoring Control for Advanced Fiber Laser Cutting
The M800 laser control on the Mitsubishi Advanced 800 Series eX-F fiber laser cutting machine from MC Machinery Systems has a processing speed up to 100 m per minute and includes an expanded cutting condition library with even more flexibility for improved hole circularity and process times on small geometrically intensive parts.
Industry 4.0 Machinery for Smart Factory Operations
ToolCell press brakes from LVD Strippit use the Easy-Form Laser adaptive bending system for in-process angle monitoring via laser scanners located on the front and back of the press brake table.
How to Heat Treat D2 and A2 Steel for Precision Metal Stamping Operations
The Model HL7-M24 box furnace from Lucifer Furnaces has chamber dimensions of 12 in H x 18 in W x 24 in D and heats to 2,300 deg F with 15 kW heat supplied through easy to replace, coil-wired heavy duty heating elements in V-grooved radiant panels on sides, back and door of the furnace.
Extend Blanking Line Capabilities with Automated Stacking
Coil-fed laser blanking systems from LaserCoil use end-of-line robotic stackers in either single or dual stations that are side-by-side capable and can reach 120 spm.
How to Improve the One Step Blending and Finishing of Metal
New flap discs from Metabo can grind down weld seams flush without gouging into the base material, including shaping fillet welds and grinding on edge in confined areas.
Accelerated Fabrication of Complex Stamped and Wire Components for Appliances
The 4Slide NC system from Bihler features variable production speeds up to 250 ppm that combine with a standard servo clamp feed or optional endless “caterpillar” feed to reduce manufacturing times by up to 50 percent for a variety of part sizes.
Software Tools Provide Competitive Advantages in Appliance Manufacturing
Software tools from Lantek Systems can maximize the profitability of design, nesting and sheet metal fabrication processes used in building stoves, washers, dishwashers, ovens or other home appliances.
New Catalog of Abrasives that Increase Air Tool Productivity
The abrasives offered in the new, free Abrasive Catalog from Dynabrade compliment their high quality American-made power tools.
Corrosion Protection for Galvanized Steel Used in Appliance Manufacturing
InterCoat ChemGuard from Chemcoaters continues to protect during bending, stamping, welding, post-painting and even shearing of the steel.
Guided Pierce Cylinders for Appliance Manufacturing
These hydraulic cylinders from Coldwater Machine feature an internally self-lubricated, guided rod inside a steel cylinder body that provides stable, non-rotating performance with the ability to reach hydraulic pressure of up to 3,000 psi.
Deep-Box Bending of Sheet Metal Makes Appliance Manufacturing Easier
The X-Press SuperCustom press brake from Gasparini uses 1,300 mm daylight with 900 mm tool adapters to produce very deep boxes up to 600 mm and easy bending of the biggest sheet metal parts.
The World’s Fastest Automated Bending Cell for Appliance Manufacturing
The TruBend Cell 7000 from TRUMPF is comprised of a TruBend 7036 Cell Edition press brake, a BendMaster bending robot, a LoadMaster Bend material handling unit, a pallet system and tracks, all within an enclosure that requires only 69 sq ft of floor space.
