High-pressure CLs and bar feeders – combination of the future?
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 (…)

Polydec knows how to demagnetize
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 (…)

HS20 long range laser encoder provides highly accurate positioning at speeds up to 2 m/s
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 (…)
