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:
Engine-Drive Welder Ideal Fit for Pickup Trucks
The quiet, compact Vantage® 300 from Lincoln Electric provides an EPA Tier 4-compliant, multi-process, industrial, diesel-engine-drive welding solution for construction teams, pipe-rig owners and rental-fleet managers.
WELD CLEANING BRUSH FOR SURFACE PREP, ROOT-PASS AND INTER-PASS CLEANING
The Roughneck 4½ in design from Weiler Corporation results in a 35 percent improvement in cleaning action, up to 20 percent less wire loss and a 50 percent longer brush life than a comparable 4 in stringer bead brush.
Low-Alloy Ccellulosic Electrode for Pipe Welding
Pipeliner Arc 80, a low-alloy stick electrode from Lincoln Electric, is designed for root pass welding up to X80-grade pipe, fill and cap pass welding for X70-grade pipe.
MOTOMAN INTERFACE FOR LINCOLN ELECTRIC POWER WAVE POWER SOURCES
Users can now program weld parameters as work point/trim or amps/volts, along with up to four “Wave Controls” with allowable limits displayed from the process library in the Lincoln power source. Users can also program Lincoln’s Production Monitoring™ process limits and define alarm and fault conditions from the robot’s touch screen pendant display.
ADF WELDING HELMETS WITH SHADE 9-13 PROTECTION
These innovative helmet designs from Honeywell Safety Products combines the safety and performance of auto-darkening filters with superior comfort for increased productivity.
FUME EXTRACTION SYSTEM EXTENDS FUME CAPTURE AREA OVER 3X CONVENTIONAL TECHNOLOGIES
The new FILTAIR® Capture 5 fume extraction system captures fume up to 5 ft away, minimizing the need for welding operators to interact with the extraction arm and increasing arc-on time for greater productivity.
Advanced Control Improves Tube and Bar Fabrication
An advanced, application-specific CNC system from NUM helped machine tool manufacturer Sinico create a fully automated 9-axis rotary transfer cut-off and end-finishing machine for producing volume batches of parts from metal bars and tubes. The high speed of the CNC system drives multi-axis motion control for fast changeovers.
The Next Step in Higher Speed Machining
The new version of the MA-600HII horizontal machining center from Okuma achieves everything from highly accurate, steady machining of mass production to long, continuous die/mold applications. From heavy-duty cutting to fine, precision work, this HMC is available with a variety of spindles to offer performance to suit a multitude of manufacturing requirements.
High Performance Milling for Complex Aerospace Parts
One school of thought believes that high performance milling is a substitute for high speed milling, but the Mikron HPM 1350U features five-axis machining that argues why this may not be the case.
18-ft LED Light Tower with Rotating Base
Heavy equipment OEMs can use the verstile LM-18-4X150RT-RB Telescoping LED Light Mast lighting platform for illuminating large site areas for inspection.
Multi-LED, Broad-Beam UV-A Lamps Are Ideal for NDT Inspection
Each lamp on the lightweight TRITAN™ 365 Series of multi-LED, broad-beam UV-A lamps features three ultra-hi-flux UV-A LEDs for NDT inspection, plus a white light LED that illuminates dark work areas and is perfect for a wide range of NDT applications.
Powerful, Affordable UV-A LED Flashlights Ideal for NDT Inspection
OPTI-LUX™ 365 Series UV-A LED flashlights are perfect for a wide variety of NDT inspection applications.
