MEDICA 2012 will see Rigel Medical showcasing its range of advanced medical device performance analysers, electrical safety analysers and vital signs simulators in hall 11C12. Leading the way will be the MULTI-FLO infusion pump analyser, which meets all the IEC 60601-2-24 requirements and can be used for high and low flow, occlusion, back pressure and bolus measurement and features variants of one, two and four independent channels.

A leading film and packaging supplier has made energy savings and been given a new lease of life to plant equipment following a drive and controls upgrade by Optima Control Solutions Ltd (OCS).

Agreement worth minimum of SEK 60 million, including initial development phase worth SEK 45 million

As far back as 1998, Smithstown Light Engineering in Shannon, Co Clare, was in the vanguard of high-speed metalcutting, having installed the 12th machining centre ever built by the German firm, Roeders. The 3-axis, vertical-spindle machine has been in continual operation ever since and its 44,000 rpm spindle is still the fastest in the Irish manufacturer's factory.

The new DMU 80 eVo vertical machining centre from DMG has an overhead gantry supporting the spindle head, resulting in exceptional accessibility to the working area, including from the side, even when an automated workpiece handling system is used. The design also provides a large 800 x 650 x 550 mm working volume in a compact footprint.

At MACH 2012, Dr Masahiko Mori, president of Mori Seiki Co Ltd, welcomed Liam Eley, managing director of Premier Mould Services, as the first UK company to order a MILLTAP 700.

Gears can now be manufactured on Hermle 5-axis machining centres following a tie-up between the German machine tool builder and Dutch software firm, HPG Nederland BV. Hermle’s sole agent in the UK, Geo Kingsbury Machine Tools describes the process, which is ideal for producing small batches of gears and even one-offs in the size range 500 to 1,200 mm diameter.

German machine tool manufacturer, Hermle, has added a new model, the C 60 U, to the upper end of its range of vertical-spindle, 5-axis machining centres. Availability in the UK is through sole agent, Geo Kingsbury Machine Tools, Gosport.

To reduce production costs and increase accuracy when producing complex parts requiring rotational as well as prismatic machining, Hermle introduced at EMO 2011 an 'MT' version of its largest 5-axis machining centre, the C 60 U, capable of turning components in the same clamping. Availability in the UK is through sole agent, Geo Kingsbury Machine Tools.

An energy-efficient, 200-tonne, travelling column machining centre, called PowerForce 8, has been introduced by the German manufacturer, SHW Werkzeugmaschinen, for producing components within a large working volume defined by the user. X-axis travel is modular in one-metre increments from 10 to 50 metres, while the vertical Y-axis can be 7,100 mm or 8,100 mm and the cross Z-axis travel is 2,000 mm.
