ABRASIVE BLENDING WHEEL FINISHES STAINLESS STEEL IN ONE STEP
Rex-Cut Products, Inc. offers a Type 27 blending wheel for the light grinding and blending of small welds on stainless steel cabinets, chassis, furniture, frames, tanks, and vessels. The Rex-Cut® Type 27 Cotton Fiber Blending Wheel is impregnated with aluminum oxide abrasive grains that are pressed and bonded together to reveal fresh abrasives as they work.
ANGLE GRINDER WITH ELECTRONIC SPEED STABILIZATION IDEAL FOR HEAVY OPERATING CONDITIONS
Metabo Corporation offers their ‘Stone Master’ WE14-125VS 5 in angle grinder built with Metabo’s VTC (Vario Tacho Constamatic) electronic speed stabilization, making the grinder ideal for heavy operating conditions such as grinding, cutting and finishing granite, marble or concrete countertops as well as grinding and finishing specialty metals.
GRINDING TECHNOLOGY ACHIEVES SUB-MICRON TOLERANCES AND SURFACE FINISHES OF LESS THAN 1 RA
Oberg Industries offers the world’s most advanced grinding technology with its Molecular Decomposition Process (MDP). Developed for the most efficient removal or cutting of any conductive material, MDP uses an electrochemical action and an abrasive wheel to achieve surface finish of less than 1 RA and precision tolerances held to 0.0002 in – all without generating heat.
ADDING SPEED AND PRODUCTIVITY TO CAM GRINDING
United Grinding?s Cylindrical Group offers this compact and versatile grinding machine with the Speed-Load integrated loading system, which grinds camshafts up to 650 mm in length, and it’s equipped with a swiveling spindle patented by Schaudt, making the CamGrind S well suited to working on concave camshaft shapes.
GEAR GRINDER HELPS WITH LOWERING COSTS WHILE IMPROVING QUALITY
Drake Manufacturing offers its Model GS:G2-LM 200 Linear Motor CNC Worm Grinder equipped with Pneumatic Tailstock and ± 45 deg CNC Wheel Helix. A GS:G2 equipped with Drake?s worm grinding hardware and software lets manufacturers source near net shaped or hobbed gears from low cost suppliers yet still gives them control over the final product.
PNEUMATIC ANGLE GRINDER WITH DUST EXTRACTION IDEAL FOR HEAVY-DUTY GRINDING AND SANDING TASKS
CS Unitec’s L 1506 VV AIR Angle Grinder/Sander is equipped with a built-in vacuum port for dust free operation. When connected to an industrial vacuum such as CS Unitec’s CS 1225 or CS 1500, this feature provides for a cleaner working environment. The L1506 VV AIR is powered with a heavy-duty 1 hp pneumatic motor, making it an optimal choice for use in metal fabrication, construction, shipyards, refineries, power plants and other heavy industries.
GRINDING WHEELS WITH SHARP GRAIN ALLOW FAST, COOL RUNNING
KBC Tools, Inc. offers their CGW Pink Grain Grinding Wheels. They?ve got a sharper grain for rapid stock removal, allowing you to run fast, and run cool. It?s perfect for those times when you need the job done right, and right now. The wheel is ideal for grinding medium- and hard-to-grind high speed steels and cast alloy steels.
RISE OF A TITAN
A snapshot into the business strategy behind Hammersmith Manufacturing?s acquisition of new waterjet technology from Flow International to expand into new markets.
MOVING TOWARDS A BETTER WORKPLACE
Dirk Ott of Thermal Dynamics explains how the new water mist secondary plasma cutting technology for aluminum, stainless steel and other non-ferrous materials saves energy, is more economical and is less hazardous to operate than traditional cutting systems.
HIGH-PRESSURE WATER DEBURRING
Richard Bertsche of Bertsche Engineering Corporation shows why this new cutting technology is gaining wider acceptance in the automotive industry and beyond as a particularly environmentally-friendly process for removing part contaminates, burrs, chips and, at the same time, cleaning the part.
GREEN MACHINING CUTS COSTS AT TRANSMISSION PLANT
This case study from MAG Powertrain explores how nearly-dry MQL (Minimum Quantity Lubrication) sliced seven figures from the initial system cost for unneeded coolant tanks and high-pressure supply systems, reduced operating costs, and improved plant air quality in the Ford Van Dyke Transmission Plant.
SIZE MATTERS: MACHINING WIND TURBINE PARTS
This economical small-footprint HMC from MAG Cincinnati with feed/rotary drive for 360 deg contour machining of complex-geometry parts is ideal for components up to 12 m large used in wind turbines.
