Bosch Rexroth has expanded its range of standardized self-contained actuators by adding the CytroMotion system solution. With the help of the new compact actuator, linear movements involving forces of up to 110 kN can be achieved in a range of machines and systems in smaller spaces, more efficiently and more sustainably. These benefits can be seen over the entire life cycle.
In order to remain competitive in the global market, optimisation potentials within the process chain must be consistently utilised. There are also growing requirements with regard to process and machine safety, which pose new challenges for every company.
Global engineering technologies company, Renishaw, has collaborated with Wales-based bespoke bike manufacturer Atherton Bikes, to help develop its in-house additive manufacturing (AM) processes and develop more durable, World-cup winning bikes.
Groove milling, parting off and gear cutting: these are just three processes that the circular interpolation milling system from Paul Horn GmbH accomplishes productively.
Vitesco Technologies uses state-of-the-art green lasers from TRUMPF for energy-saving welding of copper. Due to electrification in the drive, copper welding is currently a key manufacturing process. Green laser systems are energy-efficient and also reduce manufacturing effort. Copper welding with green lasers is already being used in a current electronics series project for the BMW group.
The transformation of mobility is in full swing. However, it’s clear that motors with turbocharger will continue to be built for some time. Therefore, the machining business continues to strive for tool solutions with higher cutting values, longer tool life and thus lower costs per part. MAPAL has expanded its portfolio for turbocharger housing in order to make the entire machining process even more productive.
Tungaloy continuously expands the advantages of its AddMeisterDrill exchangeable-head drill solution into a smaller diameter range. Ten new DMC precision drill heads have been added to the line for diameters ranging from 4.0 mm (.157″) to 4.9 mm (.192″), expanding the entire range from 4.0 mm (.157″) up to 5.9 mm (.232″).
