Industry 4.0 Gas Management Offers Big Savings

The EWR 2 / EWR 2 Net Gas Management System from ABICOR BINZEL can connect to any local area network to perform data logging of gas usage for manufacturers over any period of time, have its parameters adjusted remotely, and use a single software program to access and monitor gas usage for any number of system units.
Achieve Exact Gas Mixtures in Automotive, Shipbuilding or Steel Fabrication

Suitable for two, three or more industrial gases and nearly all flow rates, advanced gas mixers from Witt use mechanical or electronic mixing valves for precise welding, cutting and melting results and easy, reliable control via intranet, internet or mobile devices.
Precision Bending with Automated Setup for High Productivity

Equipped with a ToolMaster for automatic tool changes in seconds, the extremely quiet TruBend Series 5000 from TRUMPF combines high axis speeds and acceleration rates with innovative operating aids for precise angles with unparalleled productivity.
Hybrid Press Brake Reduces the Cost of Forming Difficult Part Shapes

This quiet running 150 ton hybrid press brake from Cincinnati Incorporated uses bend simulation software with 3D part views, interlocked frame members, programmable ram tilt and an exclusive six-axis linear motor backgage to provide the productivity and versatility needed for demanding fabrication jobs.
Automatic Tool Changing Press Brake with Extended Tooling Capacity

To efficiently bend small batch, high-mix parts, including complex layouts, with high accuracy in minimal changeover time, the versatile ToolCell XT automatic tool changing press brake from LVD Strippit holds 50 percent more tooling to handle varying material types, organize tooling by material type, and easily switch between stainless steel and mild steel applications.
Convection Ovens for Small Medical Parts

Model 42-B18 convection ovens from Lucifer Furnaces heat uniformly to 1,200 deg F with recirculating air flow from a rear-mounted heavy duty fan that directs air along side wall heating elements then through the working zone.
Clear Out Coolant, Chips and Light Oils from Small Machined Holes

The Soft Grip Back Blow Safety Air Gun from EXAIR uses the smallest back blow nozzle available to deliver a blast of air to effectively blow debris and liquids from inside small pipe or hose diameters, channels, bores, holes, internal threads and other internal part features.
Ultrafast Automated Bending Cell

With an average cycle time of four seconds per bend, the robotic TruBend Cell 7000 from TRUMPF delivers automated bending of small parts twice as fast as conventional bending cells.
Robotic Electric Press Brake Cell

For fully automated bending of small to medium-sized parts in varying batch sizes, at bending speeds up to 1 in/sec, the Dyna-Cell robotic bending cell from LVD Strippit integrates a high-speed five-axis electric press brake with a robot for unmanned operation for up to eight hours.
Robotic Mobile Bending Cell

The automated Mobile Bending Cell from Bystronic can process large lots, or bend small lots or individual parts manually when necessary. Just plug in and start bending.
Fast and Easy Robot Cell Configuration and Deployment

Application Builder from Universal Robots walks users through the entire process of building a successful machine tending, assembly or packaging application with step-by-step guidance on end effectors, programming, machine interfaces and more that is optimized for throughput and cost.
Robotic Air-Cooled MIG Guns

TOUGH GUN TA3 Robotic Air-Cooled MIG Guns from Tregaskiss now include configurations for additional through-arm style FANUC, KUKA and Yaskawa Motoman robots.
