Intelligent Laser Machining Made Accessible to Smaller Manufacturers
GFH partnered with neoLASE to develop the “Smart Modular All-in-One Robust Laser Machining Tool” – SMAART, a fully automated laser machining system that can switch to various process steps, creating efficiencies that have previously been prohibitively expensive. The system, applied to workpiece machining in this story, doesn’t require operators to have deep, specialized laser knowledge.
Small-Footprint Electric Press Brake
With its 25-inch bending length and 30-inch table length, MC Machinery Systems’ 28-ton BB306 press brake fits just about any facility. AC servomotor and ball screw drive ensure high-speed productivity and repeatability.
40-Ton Electric Press Brake
LVD Strippit expands its Dyna-Press Series with the 40/15 Pro. The 40-ton press brake can be combined with an industrial robot to create an automatic Dyna-Cell bending cell.
Compact Automation Solution Extends Press Brake Scope and Precision
Bystronic’s Xpert 150-ton-to-320-ton press brakes automatically swap tools using a space-saving integrated tool changer. Users won’t bend a part using the wrong tool and tools aren’t incorrectly inserted into the machine’s upper or lower beam.
Press Brake with Modular Power Package
Available in three models with capacities ranging from 110 tons to 350 tons and numerous options, Bystronic’s Xpert Pro press brake offers a solution for virtually any sheet metal processing application.
Sapphire Lenses Protect Sensors Used In Robotics
Second only to diamond in harness, Meller Optics’ lenses are impervious to water, most acids and chemicals, abrasion caused by fast moving particulates, temperatures to 1,000°C, and pressures to 10,000 psi.
Dual-Purpose Handheld Resistance Weld Checker
Amada Miyachi America’s compact MM-410A supports process development and production applications for resistance welding technologies including AC, DC inverter, AC inverter, transistor, and capacitive discharge. Data storage is available using an onboard flash drive.
Bimetal Reciprocating Saw Blades Triple Cutting Performance
Featuring a reinforced shank that helps resist breakage, 3X Power blades from L.S. Starrett cut metal and other materials more efficiently. A version with heat-treated teeth set at a super-aggressive pitch cuts fast in applications such as demolition and emergency vehicle extrication.
Automatic Tool Changer for Dual-Drive Press Brakes
The automatic tool changer (ATC) for the BH series of dual-drive press brakes from MC Machinery Systems is designed for high-mix, low-volume environments by allowing for the greatest tooling variation on the market and facilitating operation by employees of all skill levels.
Robotic Bending Cell Available with In-Process Adaptive System
LVD Strippit’s Dyna-Cell with Easy-Form Laser in-process adaptive bending system and programming wizard ensure the desired angle from the first bending operation. Together, the features facilitate automated bending at speeds up to 1 inch (25 mm) per second.
3D Metal Printer Is 40% Faster Than Predecessor
The DMP Flex 350 from GF Machining Solutions is the successor to 3D Systems’ ProX DMP 320 3D metal printer. Consistent repeatability is achieved with its pure, low-oxygen environment during printing.
Maximum Precision in the Powder Bed
DMG MORI expands its selective laser melting (SLM) machine lineup with the Lasertec 12 SLM and Lasertec 30 SLM. Both machines feature the rePLUG module, which enhances safety and enables powder to be changed within two hours.
