At EMO 2021, HEIDENHAIN will be entering a new chapter in shopfloor-centered manufacturing with the new TNC7. This standard-setting CNC control supports users from initial design to final machining, from one-off jobs to serial production, and from simple slots to complex contours.
At EMO Milano 2021, GF Machining Solutions presents the DMP Flex 350 metal 3D printer, suitable for 24/7 part production. With a maximum part build size of 275 mm x 275 mm x 380 mm (10.83" x 10.83" x 14.96"), the DMP Flex 350 enables more efficient production of dense, pure metal parts and includes improved gas flow technology for uniform part quality across the entire build area.
As a company that has roots that date back to 1889, The Saw Centre and its growth trajectory really took off when the company was bought by a father and son partnership in the late 60’s. The company has grown exponentially since then and it now employs more than 30 staff in a 20,000sq/ft purpose built facility.
A 3-axis, 40-taper, vertical-spindle machining centre (VMC) has been introduced by Hurco, the VM ONE, to address a need especially among subcontractors for an entry-level machine that is super-compact. It is capable of producing prismatic parts weighing up to 1,500 kg within a working envelope of 660 x 406 x 356 mm.
A Spanish manufacturer of high-quality stainless steel pressfittings has automated the forming and the in-line quality control of bent tubes made from stainless steel. Laser vision-based bin-picking, automated inspection and clever co-operation of two different types of Stäubli robots (six-axis and scara) are among the technologies used.
Outstanding design that combines aesthetics and function has been confirmed three times for the SM6020 flow sensor: After the product already received the German Design Award in February 2021, ifm is now also pleased to have received the Red Dot Award and the iF Design Award.
The Swabian sharpening specialist VOLLMER is celebrating a global premiere at EMO 2021 in Milan: The machine manufacturer is presenting its new VGrind 360S grinding machine for the first time, which can be used to automate the efficient machining of carbide tools such as drills, milling cutters or reamers. The machine is a further development of the VGrind 340S with a higher torque and more flexible automation options. Thanks to optimised linear induction motors, a plate heat exchanger and, for the first time ever, spindle indexing, the VGrind 360S will be especially beneficial for tool manufacturers developing and producing cutting tools for the automotive, toolmaking, medical engineering or aerospace sectors, to name just a few.
Speed up your tube laser business with the new ByTube Star 130, the high-end tube laser cutter from Bystronic with the most functions. Precision, user-friendliness, and a fully automatic setup with open profiles and ellipses lead to greater flexibility and quality in production.
