Linear-Position Sensor supports Ethernet POWERLINK
MTS announces completion of its R-Series Ethernet POWERLINK sensor for use in dynamic control applications with short cycle times. This product adds to the MTS portfolio of absolute, non-contact linear-positions sensors for real-time feedback that also includes EtherCAT interface. A resolution of 1 micron is possible for lengths from 25 mm to 20,000 mm. Position and velocity measurements can be provided for up to four locations on the sensor to e...
Irish Manufacturer Expands High-speed Machining With 5-axis Acquisitions
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.
Uprated conversational control cuts cycle times by a third
Two Hurco VMX30t vertical machining centres (VMCs) have been added to the subcontract machine shop of Schivo Group in Waterford, on the south coast of Ireland. Compared with a VMX42 installed in 2004, the latest machines are 50 per cent more productive, due entirely to the increased functionality of Hurco's conversational programming software, WinMax, incorporated into the control systems.
New Range Of Fume Extraction Cabinets From Flextraction
Flextraction Ltd has launched a brand new range of Fume Extraction Cabinets (FEC) for use by companies, where operatives are exposed to low dust emissions and small quantities of solvents, paints and chemicals used in their product manufacturing processes. They can also be used to perform weighing operations.
LARGE 5-AXIS MACHINING CENTRE HAS TURNING CAPABILITY AT ANY TABLE ANGLE
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.
BEI Kimco Solves Demanding Application Requirements for High Performance Motor Capable of Speeds to 70Krpm
BEI Kimco Magnetics recently developed a BLDC motor to meet the challenging high speed requirements for a Turbomolecular Vacuum Pump application. The Turbomolecular pump is widely used in the semiconductor device manufacturing process, which requires highly compressed gases for chemical deposition and implantation. The pump design incorporates the specially designed BEI motor driven turbine rotor, which is capable of operating speeds of up to 7...
