Precise small grinders for coarse and fine grinding

Atlas Copco Tools has revised its small grinder series. The tools in the LSF 29 series, which are suitable for processing both coarse and fine surfaces, have vibration values below the EU directive limit.

Cleanliness during sanding

Extraction of hazardous substance dusts

Cleanliness in the workplace is not just for technical reasons. Processing options must also comply with health aspects and regulations. The CD Dust Remover extraction system from Pferd collects the dust where it is generated when sanding hazardous materials.

EMO 2019

Steels, standard elements and production technologies

At EMO 2019, Meusburger will inform its visitors about the selection of materials and standard elements especially for jig and fixture construction. Samples of the manufacturing technologies offered by the company will also be on display.

Diamond mounted points

Tools for machining gray and ductile cast iron

There are established solutions for machining gray and ductile cast iron - diamond mounted points increasingly represent functional and economical alternatives, also in automated applications.

Grinders

Crankshaft machining with Junker and Zema

In a joint project between Junker and Zema, crankshafts are machined on machines from both companies. The Jucrank 6S 10-10 machines the crankshafts in the first step, then the grinding process continues on the Numerika G 1500 Plus.

Surface treatment

Automatic grinding with feel

Automation is also finding its way into the surface treatment of large areas. Ferrobotics has developed the Active Orbital Kit 601 to meet the special challenges of large-area sanding and polishing processes.

Robotics

Far-reaching arms

Fanuc has added two new robots to its model range. The new additions are the M-20iD/25 handling robot and the ARC Mate 120iD welding version. Compared to their predecessors, both are characterized by higher axis speeds and a large working range.

Flap disc

More power for grinding

Thanks to the patented precision-formed abrasive grain, the new 3M flap disc 769F has a longer service life and faster stock removal than conventional zirconia alumina discs, according to the company.

Eroding of PCD tools

Eroding with disk or wire

PCD tools are often used for machining high-performance materials and are characterized by long tool life and precise cutting. However, their manufacture poses a number of challenges.
