Microfinish attachments for turning, grinding and milling machines: Value-for-money surface superfinishing

In virtually all technical fields, the requirements placed on the quality of individual components are increasing. As a result of this, surface-improving and geometry-improving superfinishing techniques are becoming more important. Today, even smaller suppliers must be capable of working to the finest tolerances in dimensional accuracy. The German machine manufacturer Thielenhaus Microfinish presents a range of attachments for base machines for these applications and for small batch sizes. With these solutions, the advantages of the Microfinish technique can also be enjoyed using conventional turning, grinding and milling machines, meaning that the surface, roughness, waviness and contact ratio of the components being worked on can be improved in a reliable manner.  (más…)

Light construction in wind energy technology Innovation impulses at "EXPERIENCE COMPOSITES – powered by JEC Group"

The giant CFRP rotor blade of a wind turbine located in front of the Messe Augsburg premises is already being touted as one of the trade fair highlights of this year. «EXPERIENCE COMPOSITES – powered by JEC group» is dedicating a separate showcase to the area of fibre composite applications in wind power generation. The wind power industry is a growing market for composite materials. Indeed, light construction and fibre composite technologies make wind energy systems even more future-proof and efficient, thus helping to reduce energy costs. Between 21st to 23rd September, clusters, companies, universities and research establishments will be presenting current projects and innovations to an industry audience from around the world. The joint project organised by Messe Augsburg, Carbon Composites e.V. and JEC Group has already gathered together a great international composites fan community even before the premiere. (más…)

Clever changing system - triple cutting edged Tritan-Drill as replaceable head system

Replaceable head systems in the machining industry are the first choice when it comes to meeting the demands of rising raw material prices, resource efficiency and streamlining of stocks. Reason enough to further develop the triple cutting edged Tritan-Drill with which MAPAL has defined a new standard in drilling as a replaceable head variant, and to bring the first standard triple cutting edged replaceable head drill to the market.

On the TTD-Tritan-Drill, tool head and tool holder are joined by a Hirth serrations. This connection is particularly stable so that all the benefits and the performance level of the solid carbide equivalent are fully retained with the replaceable head variant. It can be used reliably and stably even in difficult drilling situations, such as with inclined bore entrance or in cross bores. The tool is perfectly centred via its pronounced drill tip and ensures very good connection – and that at lower costs, because with the new replaceable head system, the use of costly carbide is limited to the tool head. Lower costs are thus guaranteed even with large diameters.

The stability of the connection derives among other things from the triple cutting possibility that is predestined for a replaceable head system. The three cutting edges ensure a homogeneous load on the connection so that the forces occurring during machining are transmitted uniformly to the steel tool holder. In addition the connection guarantees optimum torque transmission with at the same time high changing and radial run-out accuracy.

The Tritan-Drill as replaceable head variant TTD will be presented at the AMB 2016 in Stuttgart and will be available as a universal variant for the machining of steel in the diameter range from 12 to 32 mm.

Regardless of whether it's Popeye or Olive Oyl turning the screw

A revolution in process safety – Why hand tool manufacturer Wiha believes that torque tools are so important in modern industry

During shift changes in industrial, machining production “Skilled worker A” is replaced by “Skilled worker B” in a brief, yet precise and seamless handover. The same task, the same level of knowledge – the process runs smoothly and safely. Nevertheless, at least when it comes to setting up the machine, replacing and tightening the interchangeable bit, differences arise. One fastens the screw tighter, the other a little looser … or to put it bluntly, depending on what they had for breakfast, the same worker can be Popeye one day and Olive Oyl the next. Potential consequences range from damage to expensive tools to complete machine failure in the worst case. Only torque tools can guarantee the quality and processes in the long term. Wiha rises to this challenge with a wide torque assortment, and offers advice and recommendations based on deep-rooted, sound experience. (más…)
