Filter by Process Zone:
COMPLETE MACHINING OF COMPLEX PARTS IN ONE SETUP
The compact DZ 12K S Magnum 5-axis double-spindle machining center from Chiron America uses a 2-axis tilt rotary table for milling and turning complex workpieces in one set-up to reduce total machining time and lower costs per piece with less floor space and personnel requirements.
PRECISION STAMPING COMBINED WITH SERVO PRESS TECHNOLOGY
ULX-D precision servo press series from AIDA-America are the first presses to be more accurate than the die, providing the ability to produce even higher accuracies in products formed via ironing, flattening, or bulging processes that are easily influenced by changes in forming speeds.
GENERAL PURPOSE DOUBLE SWING BAND SAW
The semi-automatic DS-20 Double Swing 20 in horizontal band saw from Scotchman Industries uses a quick-slide vise to swing 45 deg right or 60 deg left, with a capacity at 90 deg is 14 in high x 20 in wide, at 45 deg is 14 in high x 14 in wide, and at 60 deg is 14 in high x 10 in wide.
Fast and Flexible Turret Press
The new generation of the TruPunch 5000 from Trumpf processes a maximum sheet thickness of 0.3 in by operating about 10 percent faster than its predecessor, with 1400 spm for medium format and 1200 spm for large format, or 200 more strokes without using more energy.
PLASMA AND OXYFUEL CUTTING OVER LARGE WORK AREAS
The rugged Sabre DXG Heavy Duty Cutting Machine from ESAB Cutting Systems is equipped to cut carbon steel up to 3 in thick or stainless steel and aluminum up to 6 in thick using up to eight stations, including two plasma stations for cutting/marking with the same torch.
Filtration System for Weld Fume Control
The Circulator™ from Lincoln Electric is a supplement to an existing source extraction system that is ideal for small shops that have overhead cranes, large amounts of infrastructure, or other obstructions for ductwork and offers an economical alternative to a push-pull system.
MAGNETIC QUICK DIE CHANGE SYSTEMS
Hilma introduces a magnetic quick die change system that clamps existing dies without retooling with an evenly distributed clamping force that reduces tool wear.
SELF-SHIELDED FLUX-CORED GUN WITHSTANDS ABUSE, INCREASES COMFORT
Ideal for demanding and harsh construction, shipbuilding and heavy manufacturing applications, the Dura-Flux™ gun from Bernard can be configured with multiple cable lengths, necks, contact tip insulators and direct plugs to meet the needs of nearly any flux-cored application.
MIG GUN FOR NON-INDUSTRIAL WELDERS
Perfect for farm, garage, hobby/DIY, artistic metal working, small job shops, maintenance and repair applications, these durable Tweco Weldskill MIG guns from Thermadyne® Industries use a patent-pending design that provides light-duty welders with attractive value pricing.
PLASMA TORCHES ARE MORE HEAT RESISTANT, WITHSTAND GREATER IMPACT
Duramax™ retrofit plasma torches from Hypertherm can withstand impacts five times greater than the previous generation of torches and are more heat resistant so they can easily conquer the most demanding job in robotic and pipe-cutting applications.
ADVANCED PROCESS WIRE FEEDER FOR ALUMINUM FABRICATION
Ideal for aluminum fabrication, high-alloy construction, shipbuilding and pipeline welding, the compact Power Feed® 25M wire feeder from Lincoln Electric is push-pull capable for premium aluminum wire feeding with a push-pull gun.
COMPACT CONSTRUCTION WIRE FEEDERS
Ideal for ironworking, fabrication, shipyards, rental companies, pipeline and construction, the LN-25 Pipe and LN-25 Ironworker® wire feeders from Lincoln Electric are simple to operate, reliable and easy to service.
