Bar feeder manufacturer LNS has just unveiled a device specifically designed for the watch market. The aim? To provide a reliable device of the same quality as the famous Tryton, well-known by specialists working with small diameters, but whose capacity has been limited to 7 mm. The result? The Tryton Watch Industry 107. Interview at Orvin with Gilbert Lile, CEO Europe, and Samuel Ventron, Product Department Manager.
The driving force behind this new product is a large group of watchmakers, keen to order more than 100 devices with a maximum capacity of 7 mm. Mr Ventron explains: "To meet this customer’s requirements, capacities of 8 to 12 mm were clearly not required." Mr Lile adds: "Thanks to the technical modifications made and to the limitation of functionalities, the Tryton Watch Industry is offered at a price which is more than 12% lower." For this customer, that works out as almost 15 machines equipped for the same investment as the standard Tryton.
Easy transition Over the years, the LNS Tryton bar feeder has become a benchmark for working with small diameter bars and functionalities have been regularly added. Its level of performance and quality is widely recognised and the company set itself the goal of retaining all its benefits whilst reducing the resources needed for its acquisition. Mr Lile explains: "The difference was made by reducing the number of options and functionalities, however, the performances required by our customers have been retained." Mr Ventron adds: "How the product is used is identical to the traditional Tryton; the control is the same." This means no training is needed.

The requirements for high-pressure CLs have steadily increased in recent years. They are an integral part of modern wet cutting processes. New placement options for the peripherals are sought, including integrated ones. But are they always a good idea? And is a high-pressure filtration solution possible that can solve the space-performance dilemma? More production space for more lathes means more potential for sales – provided the order situation is given. So why sacrifice more valuable (…)
MAPAL offers various UNIBASE dispensing systems for optimum storage and management of tools, components and accessories, which can be individually networked with one another according to a modular principle. These systems are often situated in a central location in the manufacturing. In order to store and manage frequently required consumables in a decentralised and space-saving manner, MAPAL has developed the new, cost-effective UNIBASE-S single automatic dispenser. This can be connected to (…)
How does this sound to you machinists? A tried and tested yet innovative and sustainable solution on your sliding headstock automatic lathes that achieves maximum efficiency through high pressure quickly and smoothly – without having to re-train your employees or adjust your processes every time?

Whether they are multi-ton steel beams or pins barely visible to the naked eye, magnetized parts can be the grain of sand in the gear and paralyze a production process or be considered defective. For more than 30 years, Polydec in Biel has been producing precision micro-parts for the automotive and watchmaking industries as well as for electronics and medical technology. Thanks to a machine park of 50 automatic lathes, the company produces about 40 million turned parts per month. Most of (…)
The Alu Guide system from Tsubaki Kabelschlepp is available for long travel lengths on axes and portals, among other applications.

Renishaw’s proven HS20 laser encoder system has been upgraded and is now able to achieve a new maximum speed of 2 m/s for large machine tool applications. Previously the system, which can deliver an accuracy of ±1 µm/m for axis lengths up to 60 m, was limited to 1 m/s but through improvements to the electronic design it has been possible to double the speed performance. The improved speed allows for the HS20 laser head to be designed into higher velocity applications which are becoming (…)
