The Latest Updates in Technology
For more than a decade, we at Fabricating & Metalworking Online have carried stories on the latest machines and equipment to hit the market. Take a look at our latest updates, go back in our archives to see what we’ve written about in the past.
Filter by Process Zone:
Hard-Fine Machining of Small to Medium-Sized Lots
The UGrind machine from DVS Universal Grinding reduces the time and effort spent on set-up and preparation, on customized programming for different parts of various sizes, weights and geometries, and on clamping, continual measuring and repeated feeding until the final dimensions are achieved.
Easily Capture Dust and Fumes in Light Production Welding Applications
The Zephyr III Portable Dust Collector from Camfil APC is perfect for capturing airborne particles at their source, including welding/soldering fumes, grinding dusts and dry dusts in facilities that perform maintenance welding or intermittent production welding.
Keeping Tube and Pipe Joints Clean When Welding
Huntingdon Fusion Techniques HFT can remove air from the vicinity of a weld inside and outside simultaneously by using a Weld Trailing Shield on the outside and an Inflatable Pipe Purging System on the inside.
How to Tailor Pulsed TIG Welding to Thin Material and Stainless Steel Pipe
The Renegade ET 300iP DC TIG/Stick inverter from ESAB features controls for pulsed TIG welding that can improve weld puddle control, control the weld bead profile, reduce heat input and increase travel speeds on stainless steel pipe used in food, process piping and mechanical contracting applications.
No More Depression at the End of a Laser Weld
SmartRamp technology from Prima Power Laserdyne provides consistent endpoint control during laser welding, eliminating areas where potential weld failure can occur to produce uniform weld penetration along the entire length of the weld.
World’s First Collaborative Spool Welding Robot
Novarc’s Spool Welding Robot is a semi-automated robotic system for pipe welding, small pressure vessel manufacturing and other 1G welding applications.
Advanced Waveform System Addresses Thin-Gauge Steel Welding
The new AC STT waveform from Lincoln Electric provides a complete system for welding thin sheet metal from 24 ga and up, while accommodating for poor fit-up and gap conditions.
Oven for Baking Radiator Cores
The 750 deg F gas-fired No. 1046 cabinet oven from Grieve provides 800,000 Btu/hr installed in a modulating natural gas burner and 12,500 CFM vertical upward airflow to the workload.
How to Maneuver Your Part Without an Overhead Crane or Brute Force
Gone are the days of using an overhead crane or brute force to maneuver parts around. The heavy duty Powered Manipulator from Bluco is a specialized modular fixturing system that raises, lowers, rotates or tilts your workpiece into any position to a comfortable working height.
Workholding Systems for Part-Specific Automotive Machining
Cutting-edge chucks and custom fixtures from Kitagawa North-Tech are engineered, modified and/or customized to solve part specific machining for a myriad of automotive applications.
Turn Every Design into a Successful 3D Print
Sunata software from Atlas 3D works seamlessly with direct metal laser sintering printers, eliminating the expensive and time-consuming simulation process that plagues 3D design engineers.
Laser Cutting of Polished Stainless, Aluminum, Brass and Copper at Full Power
Job shops and OEMs can cut even the most reflective “red” metals using CL 900 series fiber laser cutting systems from Cincinnati Incorporated that use 8 kW nLIGHT alta fiber lasers with proprietary back reflection technology.
