Alpha Wire, a leading supplier of advanced solutions and service in wire, cable and tubing, has announced the launch of a new cable line, Pro-Tekt, specifically designed for the needs of the industrial European marketplace.

Mill-Max has developed high density, .050” pitch through-hole and surface mount spring-loaded connectors (SLC) available in single and double-row strip packaging. Each precision-machined spring pin component is plated 20µ” hard gold and assembled in a high temperature thermoplastic insulator suitable for wave and reflow soldering processes. Every Mill-Max SLC is RoHS compliant.

Haydon Kerk Motion Solutions, a premier manufacturer of linear motion products, has released a new version of its popular 36mm G4 linear actuator. This new configuration includes a special adapter plate that allows the smaller 36mm OD unit to replace 42mm and 46mm units in existing applications. Performance of the 36mm G4 linear actuator not only exceeds the performance of comparable size actuators, it approaches the performance of larger 42mm a...

Three innovative tooling attachment systems introduced by the German EWS Group and available in the UK from Corsham based Gewefa UK, offer the potential to significantly enhance the capabilities of existing NC lathes and increase the profitability and scope of the machine shop.

Engineers at the University of Leicester have for the first time created a way of measuring how much force is used during a stabbing using a broken bottle. The advance is expected to have significant implications for legal forensics.

With newly developed cutters and its novel helix milling technique, MAPAL is now able to increase material removal rates in the machining of large diameter bores by up to 40% compared with conventional circular milling cutters. Designed for roughing of bores 150 mm or more in diameter, MAPAL’s new tangential cutters feature economical indexable inserts and provide optimised chip removal to extend tool life.

Secure hole making for smaller diameters in unstable conditions

Sandvik Coromant introduces the CoroDrill 861, a brand new range of solid carbide drills for deep hole drilling applications. Featuring Advanced Chip Management (ACM) flute geometry, the new drills are able to generate small, manageable chips. This, combined with specially designed point geometry to reduce thrust forces and patented double-offset margin geometry, helps provide the high stability necessary for drilling deep holes in the most exped...

Ballbar 20 (V5.09.04) is the current software shipped with all Renishaw’s QC20-W ballbar kits, allowing fast machine tool performance testing and analysis. It is also compatible with QC10 ballbars (when used with suitable PC operating system software) so users can run a single software programme even if they use both QC10 and QC20-W ballbars. This latest version has been enhanced to give even greater flexibility for testing and reporting.

Tyco announced the launch of a new hybrid connector. The Motorman hybrid connector simplifies the connection of power and signal of locally controlled motors. It integrates communication, signal and power transmission within a compact single connector and therefore requires only one cable for connection. The Motorman hybrid connector features two fast Ethernet interfaces providing the full benefits of real-time automation control, while reducing ...
