Special robotics in industrial production

The short-term peak power required to start a motor or a capacitive load is many times higher than the rated power.

Today more than ever, companies need to reconcile economy and ecology. In order to stay ahead of the game, planning and processing must be even more comprehensively networked in S&OP.

Blum-Novotest is presenting FormControl X for process-reliable automation at AMB. The new software is a solution for machining centers with which more knowledge can be gained by continuously measuring workpieces during the machining process.

Handling and automation play an important role in the modernization of the industry. In an interview with Daniel Schilling, Dr. Kurt Schmalz explains the most important trends and technologies for the coming years.

Innovations in pipe connection technology and linear technology will take center stage at Motek this year. The new products that RK Rose+Krieger will be presenting in Stuttgart include articulated joints for the industrial staircase and working platform system (ITAS), an anti-rotation device for system superstructures, a multi-axis modular system for gantry constructions and the RK MonoLine Z80 linear axis in a corrosion-resistant design.

There will be plenty of new products on the Teamtec stand at AMB, for example the powerful Axile G6 high-speed machining center, which is celebrating its premiere in Germany. In addition, the new BMX45 turning center from Biglia for the complete machining of complex bar parts with 45 mm bar capacity.

Competition is part and parcel of a trade fair like AMB: exhibitors come to the fair with the latest innovations and brand-new products in order to stay ahead in the race to win over customers.

At AMB, Schunk will be demonstrating how metalworking processes can be made more efficient, flexible and sustainable. With the new KRP3 centric clamp, the stationary Tandem3 modular system now has a further component for flexible workpiece clamping.

AMB will once again take place in Stuttgart from September 13 to 17, 2022. INDUSTRIAL Production editor-in-chief Daniel Schilling spoke to trade fair director Gunnar Mey about the innovations, highlights and trends at the trade fair for machine tools and precision tools.

Okuma Germany announces new products for its first trade fair appearance in direct sales for Germany: In addition to the LU3000EX, Okuma will be showing the LB3000 lathe, which offers a high degree of automation in conjunction with the Armroid articulated arm robot.
