<![CDATA[SPIN WELDER SPW06]]> The welder structure is very strong. The motor driving the rotating spindle is a brushless type. The motion of the transducer holder head is achieved with a pneumatic system run by a proportional valve, and on high precision prismatic guides.
One of the most important features of this Spin welder is certainly the cycle control system totally run by a MICROPROCESSOR.
It is possible to weld with time mode, torsion mode or even with distance mode. In this case, the welding height is controlled by encoder with centesimal resolution.
It is very important that the rotating spindle can stop in a precise angular position with an error of +/- 1 degree. Using this feature we can weld parts having a geometric shape with reference angle.
For every cycle phase, descent, welding and solidification, it is possible to program different thrust pressures. With this microprocessor you can store 10 different welding programs.]]>

<![CDATA[Extremes are its strength: Heavy duty rotary encoders with IP69K protection]]> Heavy duty rotary encoders with IP69K protection

Many encoders are pushed to their limits, especially for mobile machines, in heavy industry, for outdoor use or offshore applications. In these instances, an encoder with only offers high accuracy is not enough, because even at -40 or +85C, when exposed to shock and vibration, dirt and moisture, measuring tasks always have to be carried out smoothly and with precision.
Hardly any other sensor is faced with as many different challenges as a rotary encoder used in relentless, heavy duty applications. The fine line between high resolution, functionality and robust housing design has to be achieved. The SIKO WV42HD robust, magnetic, absolute rotary encoder in heavy-duty design has managed to pull off this feat without compromising flexibility, reliability or size.

The reasonably-priced WV42HD heavy-duty rotary encoder is flexible to use. Different interfaces, such as CANopen, SSI or Analog are available. The encoder always takes advantages of the magnetic wear-free measuring principle and battery-free multi-turn technology. The innovative technology is encased in a stainless steel housing of only 42mm diameter, allowing it to be used in applications with limited installation space.

Special design features ensure the high IP69K protection rating throughout a long product life cycle, making the encoder the obvious choice for positioning tasks in mechanically difficult environments.

Combined with robust ball bearings (intermittent shaft load rating 300N, continuous shaft load rating up to 270N), the WV42HD is the perfect choice for reliable measuring under extreme environmental conditions, such as high humidity, fluctuating temperatures and aggressive media (salt spray test according to DIN EN ISO 9227 >240hrs).

This ensures the best possible protection of know-how. Now it really is easy to create significant USPs without external assistance and offer individual solutions based on market standards.


The industrial multitouch operator panel from KEBA
Making injection molding machine operation even easier and more efficient

The industrial 21.5" multitouch operator panel from KEBA makes injection molding system control even easier. Instead of a classic membrane keypad, the full glass front features unique haptic elements in line with the graphical user interface. And it is these haptic elements that make it different to conventional multitouch input devices, enhancing the control system's "easy to use" factor considerably.
The operator feels where his fingers are on the capacitive screen when giving commands, enabling precise finger guidance as with slide controls and membrane keys, without having to keep an eye on the touchscreen the whole time. Therefore the operator can pay more attention to machine processes. The result is even easier and more efficient control.

Precise user guidance increases efficiency and cuts training costs
The KEBA multitouch operator panel enables a further increase in operating efficiency thanks to precise user guidance with software. This means that only specific operating options that make sense in the current situation are offered in each operating step. As a result, the operator has fewer decisions to make from the start and it protects against accidental operator errors. Thanks to the enhanced operating efficiency, increased productivity and less training required, costs can also be effectively reduced.

Perfectly customised to match customer requirements
Perfect customising to the client's application is easy and quick with the KEBA multitouch operator panel. The combination of the freely programmable graphical user interface with software-controlled user guidance and the unique haptic elements provides customising opportunities like never before.

<![CDATA[APEX Peak performance from the market leading hose pump manufacturer]]>
Designed to suit all dosing, metering and transfer applications from 2.8 to 1,200 litre/hour across a broad range of applications, the new APEX pumps are now the first choice for processing plants the worldwide. Unlike other pump types, APEX hose pumps have no expensive wearing components such as seals, valves, membranes, stators, rotors or glands. Subsequently, they are ideally suited for handling difficult fluids abrasive, corrosive, viscous, shear-sensitive, crystallising or even fluids presenting a combination of these properties.

Offering the best performance available on the market for pressures up to 8 bar, along with reliable and stable flow up 1200 l/h (with 20mm diameter hose), makes APEX first choice for ongoing, precise dosing. This is boosted by a new generation of long-lasting hoses that also supports repeatable accuracy when dosing additives, while continuous pump speeds up to 100 rpm provide a wider capacity range in comparison with alternative hose pumps.

Users of the APEX pumps benefit from extremely low maintenance requirements, giving extended uptime and therefore process continuity. With cast aluminium housing providing superior heat dissipation, robust direct-coupled technology and precision machined hose elements, APEX provides decreased cost of ownership, reduced operating costs and low inventory stocking.

Among the many benefits of the new pumps is ease of scalability. While APEX offers optimum performance for low flow transfer applications, should process requirements change, easy upgrades are achievable without having to buy a new pump. This is because APEX models are three pumps in one, with a single pump body adjustable for three hose sizes (10, 15 and 20mm) when production volumes rise. Such scalability to higher flows provides future-proofing that cannot be matched by competitor pumps.


The all-round performance of APEX models means they are suited to applications ranging from lime dosing and slurry transfer, through to handling food and beverage products. Along with a two-year warranty, customers purchase safe in the knowledge that APEX pumps are manufactured by Bredel, the worlds largest manufacturer of hose pumps with more than 100,000 models in operation around the globe.]]>

<![CDATA[Lightweight Crane Systems]]>
All of the crane systems from Schmalz are based around an aluminum profile, which is available in five sizes and in lengths of up to 8,000 mm. It is used for both the crane runways and the crane girders. Despite the compact dimensions and light weight, it is extremely resilient to bending and torsion. The strongest profile can hold loads of up to 950 kg. Another component is the transport trolley, which is equipped with special low-friction rollers. It holds cable balancers, vacuum tube lifters, or hoists such as chain hoists and easily moves them in the crane rail. The complete system also includes a cable trolley to attach the power supply (electricity, compressed air, or vacuum), end stops to limit and set the travel area, as well as sealing plates and mounting elements. The cranes are installed in a ceiling or portal construction using rigid or height-adjustable suspension elements.


What are the resulting configuration options? The modular component system lets you design it as a single-beam, double-beam or monorail crane system. If needed, several crane girders can be used within one crane system. You can use rail connectors to extend crane runways and expand your working area as needed. For example, several vacuum tube lifters can be used in a connected crane system to cover larger shipping and picking areas. Because of their low moving mass, all crane systems are extremely easy to move, brake and position irrespective of the configuration and the load-bearing device being used.

Modular component systems allow for flexible configuration

The SRA system offers various solutions for individual requirements, such as confined space conditions. Low ceiling heights can be compensated by mounting the crane girder at the height of the crane runways. You can use a telescopic jib to bypass interference contours, which can be caused by ceiling beams or pillars. You can also use a conductor line for the power supply. The Schmalz Conductor Line SCL provides electricity to all of the devices that are carried along with the crane, such as a chain hoist or vacuum lifting device. In contrast to systems that are powered by a trailing cable, there is no need for a cable storage device or troublesome cable loops.]]>

<![CDATA[Block and Plate Bandsawing Machines for Longitudinal Cuts. ]]> These machines utilize the longitudinal cutting method. Under this design principle, the saw unit moves with pretensioned side-mounted rollers on precisely machined rails. The workpiece is locked on the saw table. This reduces the machine footprint by approx. 50%, resulting in lower space costs. This principle is perfectly suited to trim plate layers and to perform notching cuts. With the use of bi-metal or carbide tipped saw blades, all material qualities -from aluminium to difficult to cut materials- can be handled with superior cutting performance. Whether heavy weights or large dimensions, the machines provide excellent handling and a high degree of automation. All operating elements are located on the moving operating panel. This ensures a safe view of the workpiece and saw blade as well as perfect control of the work process.
The KASTO block bandsaws have proven applications in steel mills and steel service centres - as well as in the tool and die industry.]]>

<![CDATA[Delivery reliability with abas ERP]]>
Karlsruhe, Germany, Mai 15, 2012 The office furniture manufacturer, Hammerbacher GmbH, has connected its businesses in Neumarkt (Germany) and Pukanec (Slovakia) using abas ERP Multisite and VPN. Each location has entirely different requirements of abas Business Software.

The logistics center in Neumarkt stocks about 60,000 office furniture components which are delivered within brief timeframes. A service cockpit created in abas ERP provides support: with the click of a button all sales order information appears and actions, such as ordering spare parts or a credit note, can be triggered. The furniture factory in Slovakia, on the other hand, produces many variants and has to ensure quick delivery of the entire product line, while making sure batch sizes never become too small. The operating language and integrated financial accounting in Pukanec is Slovak.

Order today, move in the day after tomorrow
Speed is important in the highly competitive office furniture market and is a primary reason for Hammerbacher's success. Hammerbacher's main customers are mail-order companies and internet shops. The logistics center in Neumarkt maintains 60,000 office furniture components in stock, 92 percent of which can be delivered within 2 days after the order has been received. This guarantees a consistent readiness to deliver.

Reducing dependencies
Before a standard solution was implemented Hammerbacher was using a customized software solution. "Our old system was perfectly tailored to our needs in Neumarkt," says Bernhard Hammerbacher who, together with his sister Ursula Hammerbacher, has been
managing the company since 1994. He remembers, "At some point we had to look for a new standard ERP software to meet our growing needs." One reason for this decision was that Hammerbacher was depending largely on the old individual system.

With versions in compact open design (FN5040) and a housed variant (FN5045 IP20), Schaffner's sinusoidal filters provide user-friendly solutions for protecting motors in controlled drive systems against high voltage edges with large dv/dt-values and over-voltages. They smooth the pulse-width modulated output voltage of controlled drive units and provide the motor with a clean sinusoidal voltage with low harmonic content.

The sinusoidal filters of the FN5040 and FN5045 series with a nominal current of up to 260A have received the UL-label cURus. The UL seal of approval stands for high safety requirements in accordance with the detailed standards of the American market. They reach far beyond the minimum safety requirements of IEC standards and are therefore internationally accepted.

The sinusoidal filters FN5040/45, products of the Schaffner Group, the worlds leader in the field of electromagnetic compatibility and power quality, stand out in particular due to their compact overall size, easy installation and convenient connectivity options. As a result, they are ideal for use in standard HVAC applications. Wherever pumps with controlled motors are running, fans with long motor cables are operated or several motors controlled together with one frequency converter, they provide optimal motor protection.

The sinusoidal filter FN5040/45 is the first to have its minimum required pulse frequency of 2kHz, 3kHz or 4kHz adapted to the standard pulse frequencies of the frequency inverter and therefore it is no longer necessary to oversize the inverter.]]>

<![CDATA[Pfeiffer Vacuum introduces the first vacuum leak detector with quartz window technology]]>

Compact vacuum leak detector with quartz window sensor to locate and measure small leakages
Reliable operation at high working pressure
Low maintenance costs and high cost efficiency

Asslar, Germany, May 11, 2012. With the MiniTest 300, Pfeiffer Vacuum introduces the first vacuum leak detector with quartz window technology. What makes this device extraordinary is that the helium is not detected as it usually is with a mass spectrometer but with a quartz window sensor. Weighing only 5 kg, the MiniTest 300 is excellently suited for mobile leak detection and is therefore the ideal companion for service calls on site. In combination with the wireless remote control operation of the RC 500 WL, even large facilities and systems can be tested for leakages by just one person.

The MiniTest 300 operates at a working pressure of up to 200 mbar, without requiring additional pressure reduction. In comparison to a traditional leak detector with a mass spectrometer as a helium sensor (working pressure approx. 20 mbar), this is a significant advantage with respect to labor costs, materials used, and cost intensity. The maintenance costs are also lower than for traditional leak detectors, as the MiniTest is a helium partial pressure measuring device which requires no internal pumping system.

The detection limit of 5x10-7 mbar l/s (with a pumping speed of 1 l/s of the system pump) enables its use for leak detection in many industrial applications, such as coating and vacuum systems as well as for vacuum furnaces.

The device is equipped with two different leak detection functions. An existing leak is located as quickly as possible when in search mode, the qualitative leak detection mode. If, in addition to the localization, the size value of the leak is also needed, the measuring mode - the quantitative leak detection mode - must be used. All measurement data can be saved in the device's remote-control system and stored on a USB stick for further use.]]>

<![CDATA[Small Yet Large]]>
In many industries, the parts being inspected are no bigger than a hand, e.g. a mobile phone case or dentures. The O-INSPECT 322 is now available for the measurement of these parts. The measu- ring range is somewhat smaller (300 x 200 x 200) mm, but the system is also more affordable compared to other O-INSPECT machines. "This machine is an ideal addition to our existing portfolio and further expands our range of appli- cations," says Dr. Dietrich Imkamp, who is in charge of Visual Systems & CT at Carl Zeiss Industrial Metrology. Compared to pure optical measuring systems, O-INSPECT 322 has a competitive price and comes standard with contact sensors and ZEISS scanning. The optical and contact sensors are built in: easy-to-use CALYPSO 3D CAD software merges the measured data.

3D measurements and scans with minimal probing forces

Where other machines can only offer single-point scanning and thus relatively high probing forces,
O-INSPECT 322 from Carl Zeiss IMT offers scanning as a standard feature, in which the VAST XXT probe enables precision probing with forces in the millinewton range. Therefore, true 3D measurements that permit form and position statements are possible. This is a key benefit for users because most precision parts or plastic workpieces are three dimensional.

Telecentric optics are very elaborate and therefore not used on most optical measuring machines. Unlike the central perspective principle, the distance to the object is irrelevant in telecentrics: test objects in the camera image can always be measured with the right imaging scale. O-INSPECT 322 comes standard with the 12x telecentric zoom lens from Carl Zeiss Microscopy, which compensates for these deviations with an additional zoom range.

Precision even in challenging production environments

O-INSPECT 322 also works reliably under varying ambient temperatures. Where other machines need climate-controlled measuring labs, O-INSPECT delivers reliable measuring results at a wide range of temperatures and can also be deployed on the shop floor. Other configurations will be available in the future, which will tolerate temperatures up to 26 or 30 degrees Celsius thanks to TVA (Temperature Variable Accuracy). The operator always knows the tolerance range to be expected of the measured values. O-INSPECT 322 is therefore ideal for locations with difficult climate conditions.]]>

Gdynia as investment location for new plant of Rolls-Royce

Rolls-Royce Marine Poland is a part of the Rolls-Royce activity in the maritime industry. In 2011 a modern Rolls-Royce Marine Service Workshop was built in Gdynia (Poland, north of Gdansk). The task for this Workshop is to service a wide range of Rolls-Royce equipment and supply new products to neighbouring countries. It is not by accident that Gdynia, located on the Baltic coast, has been chosen as a place of investment, as it has won the ranking of the most attractive cities for business investments according to the Forbes magazine (in the category of 150,000 to 300,000 citizens).

In Gdynia Rolls-Royce had rented a coastal area of 6,700 m2 for 30 years and placed their service workshop measuring 2,000 m2 there. The value of the investment is estimated at 5 million EURO. The internal transport assuring material flow in the workshop was planned in detail and entrusted to ABUS devices erected by ABUS Crane Systems Polska (www.abuscranes.pl), the Polish daughter company of the German crane manufacturer ABUS Kransysteme GmbH.



The ABUS material handling solution

The Rolls-Royce Marine Service Workshop has been supplied with two overhead cranes and one free standing pillar jib crane. Heavy tasks are performed by a double girder ZLK travelling crane with a span of 18.2 m. There are two electric wire rope hoists working on that crane. The one with a load capacity of 30 tons is supported by the second with 15 tons load capacity. The hoists are controlled by a tandem radio remote control system and are equipped with LED indicators displaying the weight of the current load. Crane travelling and trolley travelling are controlled by frequency converters allowing sensitive movement with adjustable acceleration. The main ZLK crane is accompanied by a single girder ELV crane with a span of 5 m erected on a separate free standing steel structure. An electric chain hoist GM6 with a load capacity of 2 tons is working on that crane.

The trio of ABUS devices is completed by a pillar jib crane type VS with a jib length of 5 m and a load capacity of 3.2 tons. The rated slewing range of the jib crane is n x 360˚ (infinite rotation in both directions).



The modern Rolls-Royce Marine Service Workshop employs dozens of highly qualified engineers from the maritime industry and is aiming to cooperate with many counterparties in Poland and in countries bordering the Baltic Sea.]]>

<![CDATA[Non-Contacting Hollow-Shaft 360 Rotary Position Sensor]]>
Key features include through hole sensing where the shaft passes directly through the sensor, high accuracy absolute position feedback over 360, and a true non-contacting sensing element. The new sensor incorporates a proprietary ring magnet with hall chip for the sensor element. This combination does not rely on gears or other rotating parts, maximizing robustness and sensing accuracy. The proprietary design provides a streamlined sensor with only one moving part along with electronics designed for harsh environments. The result is a cost-effective product in an extremely small package.

Measuring just 9.8mm thick with a body diameter of 37mm and 50.0mm mounting hole spacing, engineers can now integrate a fully featured rotary sensor directly on their existing shafts without the packaging issues that typically accompany encoders or other through shaft sensing devices. The exceptionally low profile fits easily in places that were previously too narrow for pre-packaged rotary sensors. The standard model features a 14.05mm diameter double flatted shaft design. Custom rotor configurations are available from PIHER to adapt existing OEM shafts to the standard PST-360 Sensor.

The PST-360 utilities a patented Hall effect technology to enable true non-contacting through-hole shaft sensing with only one moving part the proprietary ring magnet. This design is extremely robust with fully encapsulated electronics surrounding the durable ring magnet. Unlike optical encoders it has no sensitivity to dust or dirt and can tolerant high vibration cycles as the ring magnet never comes into contact with the sensing electronics. The device is a true absolute sensor providing high accuracy position feedback at power on.

With its integrated redundancy, the new sensor is ideally suited for use in a wide range of off-highway, construction, agriculture equipment steer-by-wire applications. It can be easily adapted to fit marine outboard steering and throttle control, sport and exercise equipment, wind indicators, automation equipment and medical devices. A wide range of popular mating connectors is available as optional features.]]>

<![CDATA[DANA uses ACI reciprocating nozzle dryer for improved drive shaft painting preparation ]]> Drive shafts and components passing through the drying process undergo a wash-down process in preparation for painting. However, as a result of complex and irregular shapes there are catchment areas where water can often be trapped..
Previously, the drying process involved the products travelling through an oven and then passing between static air-knives located immediately before the paint application chamber. These static air-knives were mounted upon rigid frames that required positioning according to the different sizes and shapes of the various products, which range from 300mm to 2.5m in length and 50 to 130mm in diameter.
The new blower-powered drying system, designed and supplied by Air Control Industries of Axminster, comprises two opposing banks of reciprocating air-delivery nozzles, mounted vertically at the entry point into the oven. The nozzles sweep up and down to deliver a moving volume of high velocity air, to ensure effective surface drying, while at the same time creating turbulence to dislodge water trapped in obscured recesses, including blind holes.
The installed drying unit, an ACI RN15, has 15 nozzles on both sides with each set of nozzles motor driven in unison, with a reciprocating vertical movement. ACI are able to manufacture RN3, 3 nozzle assembly up to an RN15, 15 nozzle assembly.
The nozzles are flexible, can be supplied in various lengths, permitting products to brush against them without risk of damage.
Both sets of nozzles are fed by a common 37kW blower, an ACI APF direct-driven 2-pole EV, which is housed in an acoustic enclosure.
The new system works really well, said Nigel Atterbury, Quality Manager at the Dana Wellingborough plant. It can cope with all our products without adjustment and saves time and cost by avoiding manual finishing and use of a compressor.
Between 600 and 700 drive shafts are produced daily during a single 8hr shift. The drive shafts are employed on commercial vehicles, off-road vehicles and for industrial applications.]]>

<![CDATA[Making light work of heavy-duty machining]]> What do these branches of the industry have in common when viewed in the context of heavy-duty machining requirements? Whether we are talking planetary gear carriers for wind turbines, brake discs for commercial vehicles, or railway wheels, the demands made on the different production planners are very similar. Component quality must pass the severest tests, as all these parts will be exposed to extreme stresses when in service.

Machining workpieces of up to 1.5 metric tons in weight

Many companies use complex, interlinked, multi-stage processes to machine large workpieces. The VLC production centres from EMAG, however, rely on a totally different approach. Not only do the machines load themselves with the help of a pick-up spindle but the machining area accommodates all necessary machining processes turning, drilling, milling, grinding, gear hobbing on the same machine, and in a single setup. To achieve this, the production centre is equipped with automatic turning tool receptor, milling spindle and tool changer. The single setup ensures a high degree of dimensional accuracy and a constantly maintained, excellent surface finish.

The advantages of vertical machining

At the top of EMAGs range of heavy-duty machining centres is the VLC 1200, presently the worlds largest pick-up machine. It handles workpieces of up to 1,200 mm diameter and 1,500 kg in weight. Despite having to handle these enormous components, the production centre displays the same qualities as all the vertical pick-up machines from EMAG. To be able to explain the success the VLC machines are enjoying in heavy-duty machining circles it is important to have a closer look at the basic construction of this machine series. The spindle carrying the workpiece is positioned vertically above the tool, which allows the chips to fall unhindered into a conveyor located below, from where they are transported out of the machining area. This prevents the hot chips from heating up the workpieces and contaminating the workspindle. This is a great advantage especially in a lightly-manned, fully automated, heavy-duty machining environment.]]>

<![CDATA[The technology OutDry selected by GASTON MILLE!]]> For some trades, working continuously in contact with water like roadmen for the roadway cleaning, sewermen, market gardener, building workers is a real constraint. Work with a permeable shoe, makes heavy, brings about tiredness, skin problems, discomfort OutDry technology to manufacture safety shoes is the evident and simple solution to remove those constraints. Thats why GASTON MILLE has chosen this technology OutDry on some of the models used by workers who are in intensive and permanent contact with water.

WATERPROOF MEMBRANE OUTDRY
EXTREME WATERPROOFNESS / The waterproof and breathable OutDry membrane system moves the waterproof barrier from the internal lining to the external upper. As a result, the water stays on the outer surface of the shoe and feet remain perfectly dry.
LIGHTER ALL DAY / Water cannot penetrate inside the upper and stagnate between the upper and the lining, which is the case with a classical membrane; you no longer need to carry this excess weight around your feet. Moreover, shoes with an OutDry membrane dry much faster.
SUPERIOR BREATHABILITY and UNMATCHED COMFORT / The complete absence of any seam-sealing tape, enables the system to exploit 100% of the waterproof barrier surfaces water vapour permeability, thus increasing overall shoe breathability. The OutDry system creates a larger volume of dry air between the foot and the waterproof barrier; this dramatically reduces the risk of condensation from excessive perspiration and helps to maintain a stable skin temperature of the foot.
ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY / Actually, OutDry membrane is absolutely Teflon Free, made by a very thin polyurethane layer (less than 20 micrometer) combined with a very light polyester knitted protective fabric. These products are known to be absolutely non toxic and its production process not dangerous.

<![CDATA[Explosion-proved absolute hollow shaft angular position transmitter]]> In order to avoid serious damage to people, assets and the environment, most states have protective regulations, laws, decrees and standards. Explosion protection has thus developed to a high safety level worldwide.

Camille Bauer AG has extended its product portfolio in angular position instrumentation by the new absolute hollow shaft angular position transmitter KINAX HW730-Ex with explosion protection to ATEX or IECEx. Its robust design for outdoor use is captivating and particulary suited to applications in rough environments up to Ex zone 1 (gas) or Zone 21 (dust). The classifications according to ATEX "II 2 G Ex ia IIC T4 Gb", "II 2 D Ex ia IIIC T80C Db" and "II 2 D Ex tb IIIC T80C Db" or IECEx "Ex ia IIC T4 Gb" "Ex ia IIIC T80C Db" and "Ex tb IIIC T80C Db" he is ideally suited for many applications.
The electronics are based on a tried and tested capacitive measuring principle thus allowing an analogue output of 420mA in 2-wire technology with very low internal consumption. The required measuring range (span) and the direction of rotation are very easily programmed on site via a key and a switch.
