The new range, which now embraces all of the company’s innovative milling solutions, also includes established products that are already setting the highest standards for performance and econ...

As part of its CoroPak 10.2 programme of new product introductions, cutting tool and tooling systems specialist Sandvik Coromant is launching a brand new light cutting geometry for its CoroMill® 790 indexable insert end milling cutter. Designed specifically to get the best from cutting aluminium components, the new geometry is expected to appeal to manufacturers operating within the aerospace industry.

Ultra-bend, insensitive fibre standard contact (SC) / angled physical contact (APC) indoor- and outdoor-rated cable solutions are six times more flexible than conventional optical cable

Machine tool builders are demanding ever shorter mounting and commissioning times for the electrical equipment on their machines. Particularly for safety-related machines and systems, they need position encoders that deliver safe, redundant position values over a fast serial interface to a dual-channel control. These topics are among the focal points of HEIDENHAIN, the control and encoder specialists from Traunreut, Germany, at this year’s EMO....

Not all time-of-flight measurements are the same. On the basis of pulse ranging technology (PRT) developed by Pepperl+Fuchs, a new, innovative laser scanner has been produced that impressively demonstrates the advantages of this technology. To this end, further highly interesting innovations have been incorporated in the development of this device in addition to the use of PRT.

Wear protection is one of the key technologies in helping operators meet the requirements for reliable, efficient operation of equipment in the power generation industry. However, the process involves much more than the application of hard metal deposits onto process equipment using traditional welding methods.
