Special EMO: Manufacturer, reports, information at INDUSTRIAL Production

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.

Ball screws

Cooled nut improves the precision of machine tools

Kammerer Gewindetechnik will be presenting ball screws with cooled nuts for use in machine tools at EMO. The cooled nut allows easier cooling of the ball screw. This improves the accuracy and service life of the ball screws and enables higher speeds and precision.

Tool for workshop control

Innovations in software solution for order planning

At EMO, HSi will be presenting innovations in the HSauftrag order planning software solution, among other things. This concerns, for example, the automatic rescheduling of all dispatched orders after deadline changes.

Cushioning in the tool shank

Better surface quality thanks to vibration damping

In order to minimize vibrations during machining, Mapal has developed a system for vibration damping in the tool shank. It is adapted to the rigidity of all common machine types and can be used for machining different materials.

EMO 2019

Monitoring system for spindle bearings

A new sensor system from Schaeffler for measuring overloads on machine tool spindles reduces machine downtimes and enables higher machine utilization.

Ball screws

New gradients allow the drivetrain to be optimized

Four new sizes for the most common ball screw drives: Designers can fine-tune drives and linear technology for high dynamics more precisely than before.

Machine tool industry

Control providers support Umati

The Umati standard interface is now also supported by B&R Automation and Mitsubishi Electric. The new support means that it is well on the way to becoming a cross-manufacturer interface for data readout.

EMO Hannover 2019

Frank Barthelmä on the trends in toolmaking

When it comes to lightweight construction in particular, going it alone with materials is a thing of the past. Intelligent hybrid construction is in demand - for example with layers of plastic, aluminum or steel. But how can hybrid components be processed whose properties change with each material layer?

EMO Hannover 2019

EMO Hannover showcases Industrial IoT

Tool manufacturers and their users are now talking about digital twins, the cloud and big data analytics as a matter of course. This is all happening under the umbrella of the "Industrial Internet of Things IIoT" - one of the key themes of EMO Hannover 2019.
