High-speed roller cam rotary table from Haas

Adding a 4th-axis rotary table to a machining center is a proven way to boost productivity, reduce setups, and increase accuracy on multi-op parts. Adding a fast rotary table to a fast machine creates a high-speed package that slashes cycles times even further. The HRC210 from Haas Automation is a high-speed, cam-driven rotary table that provides cutting and indexing speeds up to 830 degrees/second.

Metal on metal Author: Alan Richter, Editor Published: March 2013 A pump on a waterjet machine generates the high-pressure water needed for cutting by taking low-pressure water into a cylinder, compressing the water with a plunger and then pushing the high-pressure water out of the cylinder. During a pressure cycle of intake, compression and expulsion, high-pressure components and polymer seals see the water pressure jump from two-digit inlet pressures to outlet pressures in the tens of thousands of psi.

X-ray specs Author: Alan Richter, Editor Published: February 2013 X-ray scanning a part with internal features is useful because it creates 2-D images of those features in a nondestructive manner. Industrial computed-tomography, or industrial CT scanning, which is based on X-ray scanning technology, takes it a step further by providing a complete 3-D view for internal and external analysis.
