Seeing the Way to the Factory of the Future
Why machine vision is a crucial technology for Industry 4.0.
Random Orbital Sanders for General and Ultra-Fine Sanding
Boasting the best horsepower rating in its class, the ergonomic Dynorbital Extreme Random Orbital Sander from Dynabrade has a tactile soft grip overmold for a comfortable feel and a 12,000 rpm motor for enhanced power.
High Speed Inspection
Here are some of the newest measurement technologies that can help shops reduce their inspection cycle times before, during and between jobs to increase their productivity and add more capacity.
Multi-Touch Operator Panels for Mid-Range and High-End CNC Machining Applications
Next generation Sinumerik blackline panels for the Sinumerik 840D sl control system from Siemens can be used as an operating and programming station for job shop production, aerospace composite machining, power generation, medical part manufacturing, tool- and mold-making and rotary indexing machines.
Fast 5-Axis Scanning on Linear Motor-Driven CMM
Ideal for measuring parts used in automotive, aerospace and medical applications, the Revolution LM linear motor-driven CMM from AIMS Metrology uses a Renishaw REVO 5-axis scanning system to scan five times faster than conventional touch probes with submicron accuracy.
An Alternative to Custom Hard Gaging for Measuring Small Precision Parts
With a stable granite structure and an air bearing motion system, the rugged and industrialized QVI FlexPoint high accuracy flexible gaging system from Optical Gaging Products replaces uses a touch trigger or scanning probe sensors to measure small precision parts and eliminate the investment in custom hard gaging.
Rapid Metal Analysis Reduces Shop Downtime
Ideal for metal fabrication and machining of parts used in the aerospace, automotive, medical, military, scientific and general industrial sectors, the Watson XRF Handheld Metal Analyzer from Tribogenics performs reliable positive materials identification of metal alloys in seconds, with onboard calibration and cloud reporting of results.
High Torque Retention Knobs Increase Productivity, Reduce Downtime
Hansen Engineering uses High Torque Retention Knobs from JM Performance Products to reduce downtime, extend tool life, and increase speed and feed rates in their machining of aerospace components.
Advanced Tool Presetters Reduce Setup Times
Economical Microset UNO and VIO Series tool presetting equipment from Haimer streamlines tool setting processes, reducing setup times by as much as 70 percent to minimize idle time and increase machine utilization.
Innovative Knuckle Form Profile for Fast Slot Milling of Solid Steel
Ideal for milling deep slots and machining delicate components, the five cutting edges of the GARANT MasterSteel SlotMachine solid carbide end mill from Hoffmann Quality Tools produce extremely compact swarf, lower the cutting pressure and obtain higher feed rates with a constant load to achieve 25 percent higher process efficiency than a classic four-edge end mill.
What You Must Know About Die Safety Blocks
They protect anyone working in the die area of a press from a free-falling upper die/slide if a brake or counterbalance fails, a pitman arm or adjusting screw breaks, or hydraulic pressure is suddenly lost. These devices look simple, but many shops struggle with what type of to use, how many to use, and where to put them. Here’s what you need to know.
Polygonal Clamping Technology for High Speed Micro-Machining
TRIBOS-Mini and TRIBOS-RM polygonal clamping systems from SCHUNK are now available for HSK-E 20, HSK-E 25, and HSK-E 32 spindle interfaces for outstanding change and positioning accuracy, maximum precision and superior running smoothness at high speeds.
