Aerotech’s XC4 PWM digital drive is a single-axis motor drive designed for brushless DC, brush DC, voice coil and stepper motors at up to 340 VDC operating voltage and 30 A peak current. All versions are compatible with the Automation 3200 motion platform utilizing the HyperWire motion bus.

Columbus McKinnon Corp. offers NEC-approved, Class I, Division 2 explosion-protected STAHL CraneSystems brand SH Ex wire rope hoists to its advanced hoist product portfolio. The STAHL CraneSystems SH Ex wire rope hoist is available in five frame sizes with 26-load capacity variants from 1,000 lbs. to 30 tons in deck mount, monorail trolley, and double girder trolley models for use with standard, customized or special crane applications.

Hoffmann Group USA announced that it has expanded its GARANT MasterSteel and HOLEX ProSteel solid-carbide drill ranges to include imperial sizes, thereby further extending its lead over the competition when it comes to machining technology.

Many versions of heat exchangers are used in different industries. After all, they help to make heat generated usable for other processes. In the case of recuperators, two liquid or gaseous media with different temperatures are pumped into separate circuits. A heat exchange takes place without mixing the media. Recuperators include bundle heat exchangers, which are usually made of metal and consist of a tube bundle that conducts a medium and an orifice baffle with a front tube plate through which a second medium flows.

Exact Metrology announces the availability of its Artec LEO 3D scanner, which offers onboard automatic processing with an integrated touch panel viewer. This frees users from being tied to a computer for data capture.

BOLD Laser Automation Inc. announces the introduction of its precision Whisker Series Micro-wire Handling Components for guiding wire sizes from 35 (0.0056” in diameter) to 50 (0.001” in diameter) gauge.

Kyocera Precision Tools' roughing endmills feature a multiple-edge design and internal coolant that make it the ideal tool for deep slotting (DOC = 2 times diameter) stainless steel and titanium alloys. The unique flutes are designed with serrated, round cutting edges to enhance chip flow.

Shops that struggle to machine microsized workpiece surfaces can now impart superior surface finishes and enhance accuracy and precision with the new Seco Tools JM100 Mini endmills. In micromachining operations with zero visibility of workpiece and cutting tool, the JM100 Mini delivers long tool life, stability and guaranteed surface quality thanks to its extremely precise geometries, virtually zero runout, advanced coatings and tight radius tolerances.

Hexagon’s Manufacturing Intelligence division launched a new laser tracker line, the Leica Absolute Tracker ATS600. This new product introduces a new concept in metrology-grade laser trackers, with targetless 3D scanning possible for the first time directly from the laser tracker. The ATS600 can scan a surface with metrological accuracy from a distance of up to 40 meters with no need for targets, sprays, reflectors or probes.

To greatly simplify the implementation of liquid cooling with torque motors and ease the mounting into direct-drive machine applications, ETEL announces that its TMB+ torque motor can now be ordered with a closed cooling jacket pre-built around it.

Nord Modules announced its entry into the U.S. market with a new series of flexible material-moving modules that efficiently connect production lines and internal logistics using autonomous mobile robots (AMR). The safe, ready-to-use and industrial-quality modules enhance automated heavy-payload transportation between production lines and storage systems and increase the flexibility of production lines by enabling companies to easily use the same AMR for multiple tasks.

Marposs offers the Grindline laser measuring system for on-line gauging of parts produced by centerless grinding machines such as pins, shock rods, steering racks or other parts needing a single- or multiple-diameter check. These systems prevent machining of out-of-tolerance pieces to reduce scrap, save time and help companies achieve zero-defect production.
