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:
Speed Made Easy by Advanced Consumables
These advanced consumables from Tweco provide a quick change tip, smoother arc characteristics, reduced weld spatter and also make it easier for the operator to control the arc.
Hardfacing, Hardbanding Wires for Oil & Gas Exploration
These wires from Stoody have been designed specifically to meet challenges of erosion, corrosion and the needs of the oil and natural gas industries.
Heavy Cutting Integrated Automated Plasma System
With more arc starts per set, HeavyCut Technology from Victor Thermal Dynamics extends consumables life and reduces cutting cost by up to 16 percent.
Digital Auto-Darkening Welding Helmets
These advanced helmets from Miller Electric use digital controls that make it easier for the welder to adjust shade, delay and sensitivity, even when wearing gloves. The headgear increases comfort, is substantially easier to adjust to personal preferences and withstands the rigors of daily use.
Redefining Multiprocess Welders
Until the development of the newest generation of “3-in-1” inverter-based MIG-Stick-TIG welding systems, fabricators had to compromise on one or more aspects of their operation. Not anymore. Tom Wermert of Victor Technologies explains why.
Work Table Handles Demanding Work Environments
The flexible Mobile Work Table XL from Ohio Laser can be used for everything from moving supplies and equipment to rebuilding parts and assemblies.
Rotabroach® Fusion™ Annular Cutters Increase Holemaking Productivity
The patented Fusion™ groove innovation shanks from Hougen Manufacturing are ideal for magnetic drills with one-touch tool-less arbors used by machine shops, fabricators, erection and installation crews, and maintenance personnel.
New High Production Twin-Spindle Honing Machine
With specialized fixturing, tooling, abrasives and cutting fluids, the new OTW Twin-Spindle 5000 honing machine from Ohio Tool Works is a turnkey solution for high volume pump barrel production and other oil and gas honing applications.
Extended Horizontal Machining Capabilities
The a51nx and a61nx horizontal machining centers from Makino offer larger work envelopes and next-generation productivity, accuracy and reliability.
Modular Slide Assemblies Handle Demanding Applications
This modular slide assembly program from Suhner integrates high rigidity with a variety of optional slide assembly features and accessories for demanding applications in precision and quality.
Spindle Systems Handle Bulky, Large, Long, Odd Shaped Parts
These modular units from Suhner can be positioned in any direction around the work piece. In most cases, all operations can be performed in one cycle, thus reducing the machining overall cycle time to a minimum.
Material Measurement Equipment with L3 Material Testing Software
These advanced systems from The L.S. Starrett Company are ideal for tensile, compression, flexural, cyclic and shear testing, including constant load hold testing, and more.
