Each of the OB7’s joints can rotate 360 degrees in both directions. The cobot can sense collisions at every joint, a function that triggers a safe stop. The OB7 can also be stopped with an operator’s hand and restarted with a tap on one of its joints. When running at collaborative speeds, guarding is not required. For high speed operations, a laser safety scanner is available.

The company’s Tiger system has firmly established itself as the gold standard for cutting tool insert finishing, with installations in many of the world’s leading cutting tool insert manufacturers. The system can be configured to process inserts for all essential pre-coating, edge honing or post-coating operations.

The MV 600H’s compact design, high-end features, expansive workpiece envelope, and powerful torque work in harmony to create an all-purpose machine tool that can handle any job, any material, for any industry. Its ready-made versatility positions owners to accept a wider range of jobs across a wider customer base with consistent machining experiences.

With a wide variety of modules, ATRO gives users the power to create almost any custom robot design within the rated payloads for their application – from a simple single-axis rotary indexing table application and delta kinematics up to multi-axis articulated robots. Expansive configurations with as many as 16 robotic arms are possible.

The QV Pro Series features newly developed StrobeSnap vision measuring function that speeds up run time by approximately 35 to 45 percent regardless of measurement position or continuity while achieving higher throughput and high-precision measurements. Auto focus on the QV Pro Series is about 39 percent faster than previous models, which were already fastest in their class, without loss of accuracy.

The PermaClean Filtration System eliminates sludge build up by adding optional agitation to the coolant collection tank. FlexForce is a high-pressure coolant system that dramatically outperforms ordinary flood systems. Will-fill combines automatic volume measurement and metalworking fluid analysis with faultless filling, permanent conditioning and timely reporting to provide worry-free coolant care.

Bosch Rexroth has expanded its range of standardized self-contained actuators by adding the CytroMotion system solution. With the help of the new compact actuator, linear movements involving forces of up to 110 kN can be achieved in a range of machines and systems in smaller spaces, more efficiently and more sustainably.

WIDIATM has added an AL Geometry to its ISO Turning portfolio, strengthening its broad offering of affordable tooling solutions for small to medium sized machine shops, machining aluminum and non-ferrous materials. The AL Geometry insert is offered in two grades for increased machining versatility: an uncoated microfine carbide WU10HT grade and the PVD AlTiN coated grade, WU05PT.

Scytec Consulting Incorporated is proud to announce a partnership with CGTech and the integration of DataXchange into the Digital Twin standard VERICUT. This is an incredible offering for the manufacturing industry at large by making CGTech VERICUT infinitely more valuable by adding a robust machine monitoring solution via CGTech’s new module called CNC Machine Connect in the launch of VERICUT 9.3 to enhance the quality of the simulation.

Energy management software will be one of IMCO Software’s feature products at IMTS Trade Show in September. Energy consumption and costs are receiving attention in the economy and with new manufacturing software by IMCO Software. 

SPECTRO Analytical Instruments has introduced the SPECTROMAXx LMX10 ARC/SPARK OES analyzer for fast, accurate, advanced elemental analysis in metal producing and fabricating plants, and iron and non-ferrous foundries.

GibbsCAM will showcase its latest Simply Powerful CAM software at IMTS 2022 in September. GibbsCAM product experts will be in booth #338880 to highlight the powerful new features of version 2023, which is due to be released just weeks after the show.

Magid’s Flex Series expands with a new palm coating that delivers superior wet and dry grip.

Milwaukee Tool expands their CARRY-ON™ Power Supply solutions to their M18™ System to bring on-demand portable power to any jobsite. The M18™ CARRY-ON™ 3600W/1800W Power Supply provides the most versatile 15A power, with less hassle.  

Wooster Products’ FLEXMASTER® Safety Renovation Treads offer an easily applied anti-slip surface to interior or exterior stairs. An extruded aluminum base is covered with Flex-Tred® anti-slip tape which provides a much higher coefficient of friction, whether wet or dry, significantly reducing the risk of slips or falls.

Tungaloy continuously expands the advantages of its AddMeisterDrill exchangeable-head drill solution into a smaller diameter range. Ten new DMC precision drill heads have been added to the line for diameters ranging from 4.0 mm (.157″) to 4.9 mm (.192″), expanding the entire range from 4.0 mm (.157″) up to 5.9 mm (.232″).

The new medium duty range of ball transfer units is manufactured by a machine cutting process that retains strength and rigidity, enabling the units to transport higher weight loads. Versions include a carbon steel and zinc plated body with a Steel 9Cr18Mo ball, and the units can also operate in climates from -20°C to +60°C. A model with a 304 stainless steel body and ball also adds protection in moisture-prone environments or when facing exposure to more aggressive chemicals.

With the TC630 Supreme, users can benefit from a range of advantages. A high level of process reliability for unstable machining operations, for example on lathes with driven tools or for long overhangs. Areas of application include medical engineering, precision engineering, the aerospace sector as well as electronics and general metalworking.

Built upon the ModuleWorks toolpath calculation and simulation technology and integrated directly into the CNC, ModuleWorks NGSP brings the graphic touchscreen environment of automated programming to the shopfloor, enabling machine tool operators to quickly build, simulate and run NC programs without in-depth knowledge of G-code programming. Because it is embedded in the control, NGSP has access to the tool library and physical parameters of the individual machine tool.

FL Series markers can be mounted in open Class 4 workstations or Class 1 safety enclosures, with a programmable Z-axis, optional rotary D-axis, and integrated barcode reading and verifying technology. They are designed for easy integration into robotic cells, production lines, and other highly engineered solutions to support modern manufacturing environments.
