IIoT connection of spindles
At EMO, GMN will be showcasing an enhanced version of its IDEA-4S embedded system for IIoT connection and digitization of spindles and motors.

High-speed spindle in handbag format
At Weiss, the focus is on the new 1.5 kilogram micro-mill spindle, which rotates at up to 60,000 revolutions per minute.
To ensure the reliability and longevity of a machine tool spindle and the high quality of the machined parts, the spindle must be properly balanced. Operational balancing is an inexpensive and easy-to-use method.

SKF and Fanuc offer a software platform for the automated detection of condition anomalies in machine tools that can predict the condition of spindles based on vibration, temperature, speed and process data.
In order to be able to reproduce all processing steps of complex workpieces with standard motor spindles, several machines are often required. As a result, time and accuracy are lost due to time-consuming reclamping. A spindle row turret offers a more flexible solution for multi-spindle parallel machining of complex workpieces.

Weiss Spindeltechnologie has developed the Spindle Monitor, a software tool that can be activated as an optional addition to the Siemens Mindsphere application "Manage MyMachines".

Hedelius is equipping its Tiltenta T7-2600 with a new rotary table. At EMO Hannover, the machining center will be on show for the first time with a torque drive with a speed of up to 50 rpm.
GMN spindle ball bearings are now also available in the high-precision accuracy classes P4+ and UP+. The new P4+ class is gradually replacing the previous DIN P4 and ABEC 7 accuracy classes, while the new "ultra precision" UP+ premium accuracy class is also available.
For decades, ball screws have been the preferred machine element in machine tools for moving slides precisely and quickly. However, if they have to be replaced at the end of their service life, long delivery times often result in high downtime costs for the machine concerned.

With the ceramic Dyna Contact taper gauge from Big Kaiser, the machine spindle taper can be quickly checked for damage and incorrect angles.
