Carr Lane Roemheld offers a wide range of hydraulic work supports that automatically adjust to the workpiece height, then lock securely to become fixed rests. Available in spring-advanced, fluid-advanced and air-advanced types, these work supports are extremely compact, starting at just 1" diameter, with maximum pressures up to 7,500 psi.
The Studer S121 radius internal cylindrical grinding machine from United Grinding North America Inc. has a swing diameter of 250mm (9.84") and can grind a maximum part length, including the clamping device, of 300mm (11.81"). The workpiece weight capacity, including the clamping device, is 100 kg (220.5 lbs.).
LA-MAN Corp. offers the AMD-035 SuperStar membrane dryer that provides ultraclean and ultradry compressed air specifically designed with the automotive industry in mind. This unique membrane dryer can be used where refrigerated dryers may be too large or electricity is not available or desirable.
Jaw force gages from Dillon Manufacturing Inc. allow users to accurately measure the force applied to each chuck jaw independently, so problems can be diagnosed and corrected before a failure occurs. The reading in pounds of chucking force per jaw is the holding force available for that specific jaw.
Optimal use of installation space, light weight and high stability—these are just some of the benefits of the E4.1L energy chain from igus, which is now available in new heights and widths from stock. Compared to the E4.1, weight can be reduced by 30 percent, with this light version, meaning that the chain is well suited to highly dynamic applications.
J.W. Winco Inc. offers GN 253 vibration/shock absorption mounts in inch and metric sizes. These RoHS-compliant mounts are also known as shock absorbing mounts, vibration mounts, antivibration mounts, vibration bobbins or rubber bumpers.
DoALL has added two larger capacity dual-column, semiautomatic bandsaws to its Continental series product line. The DoALL DC-1100SA offers semiautomatic capacities on rectangles at 43.3″x43.3″ (1,100mm x 1,100mm) and the DC-1700SA (pictured) boasts a rectangle capacity of 67″x51.2″ (1,700mm x 1,300mm).
Alfa Tools introduces tungsten carbide-tipped hole cutters for cutting many different types of materials, including construction steel plate, stainless steel, iron, aluminum, copper, cast iron, fiberglass and plastics.
Solvadis GmbH offers high-quality cleaning solutions for the surface technology segment. The product range comprises both pure solvents and mixtures, such as nonchlorinated hydrocarbons, modified alcohols and aqueous cleaning agents, for a range of applications.
The standard Turbo-Clean system is ecologically and economically highly efficient, regaining 95 percent of production oils before cleaning the parts. All cleaning machines are designed to run in automated production lines, minimizing disposal, regaining production oil and avoiding internal transport.
For best results in the machining of multiple material layers, cutting parameters must be applied for each different material. The new L-MAX, a portable drilling unit from SOMEX, a member of the SUHNER group of companies, can perform all of these functions in automatic mode.
Dialight launched enterprise software called DACS, the Dialight Architecture Control System, control platform that allows for commissioning, grouping and scheduling of the lights and sensors to control, monitor and manage lighting at the fixture, zone, facility and enterprise-wide level with a simple and secure dashboard interface. The system pairs with the company’s new automated demand response system (ADR) and wireless daylight harvesting sensors.
Northfield Precision Instrument Corp. introduces its new safety air reservoir tank. Its purpose is to feed an air chuck with a reserved air supply should you encounter a loss of shop air. This system can keep a chuck in the clamped position for up to 20 minutes, depending on conditions.
