All-New Haas Bar Feeder When Haas Automation introduced the Servo Bar 300 bar feeder in 1999, it was instantly popular, because it was compact, easy to use, and affordable. For 2015, Haas engineers went back to the drawing board to make bar feeder operations easier, more efficient, and faster.

The result is the all-new Haas Bar Feeder, which provides a simpler and more affordable way to automate part production on Haas turning centers. It features a re-engineered, heavy-duty – yet still compact – design that boosts productivity and streamlines turning operations.

Designed and built by Haas Automation exclusively for use on Haas ST-10 through ST-35 and DS series CNC turning centers, the Haas Bar Feeder connects directly to the Haas control, and is powered by the turning center.

Fast set up and quick changeovers are what sets the new Haas Bar Feeder apart from the competition.

It features an innovative rollaway design that provides easy access to the rear of the lathe spindle for quick liner adapter and liner changes. Simply press the foot-pedal release, and the bar feeder easily rolls out of the way for access. When pulled back into position, the bar feeder locks into place completely, eliminating accidental bumps or alignment issues. And making bar height adjustments is easier than

4

ever, using a single handwheel right where it’s needed to make visual “on-center” adjustments. Quickchange pushrods snap into place without tools, and both sizes store conveniently in the cover of the bar feeder. Built-in racks on both ends of the bar feeder provide storage for and easy access to all Haas extruded spindle liners, so there’s no need to walk around the machine, as with the previous version.

To reduce cycle times, the Haas Bar Feeder uses a new belt-driven bar-shuttle system that is 7 times faster than the previous version, with lightning-fast retract speeds.

Optical sensors accurately determine bar position, even on bars with chamfers and ragged ends, and stainless steel runners on the charging tray help bars roll down to the loading area much easier.

Even square and hexagonal stock

glide down smoothly to the new bar feeder tray.

Because it’s integrated with the Haas control, all bar feeder parameters are set directly at the lathe.

Easy-to-read, on-screen icons indicate if the bar feeder is out of position, has the lid open, or needs to be latched back into place.

The new Haas Bar Feeder is easy to set up, easy to operate, and ready to boost your output and profits.

Engineering a sustainable future As environmental concerns become ever more important to engineering and manufacturing companies, forward thinking organisations can use sustainability to boost profits and business performance, as well as helping their customers and the planet, says Rob Jenkinson, Director of Corporate Sustainability, SKF In one way or another, every stage of the manufacturing process has an impact on the environment. This applies whether it’s the raw materials a business chooses to use, the energy used in production operations, or the way in which products are disposed of at the end of their useful life. Although it’s extremely challenging with current technology and global economic conditions to expect any operation to achieve 100% efficiency and net positive impact, that doesn’t mean that as manufacturers, engineers and business leaders we shouldn’t set this as a desirable goal.

Although corporate social responsibility (CSR) policies have been around in one form or another for many years, the global financial meltdown in 2008-09 caused many organisations to postpone or cancel many of their environmental initiatives. Others however maintained their focus as they realised the potential bottom line benefits that such policies can have. With the economy slowly recovering, this situation is now changing as more and more business leaders recognise that a strong, consistent and

6

May - June 2015

strategic CSR policy, which is embedded into the core values of an organisation, can deliver real and measurable value for each business, its stakeholders, employees and customers.

For companies such as SKF, sustainability has been a core business principle for many years. It forms a key driver for innovation, covering everything from our factory and office construction, to our production processes, use of energy and water, and in the design and delivery of our products and services.

SKF BeyondZero: A new perspective In 2006, SKF implemented a new strategy for actively and quantifiably reducing its environmental impact, as well as that of its customers and suppliers. This strategy, named SKF BeyondZero, has become a critical part of the company’s DNA,

consisting of two complementary goals. The first is to reduce the negative environmental impact from its own operations and those of its suppliers. The second is to innovate and offer customers new technologies, products and services that enable them to reduce energy use and waste.

Over the years, as a result of applied research and development in the area of environmental life cycle management, SKF has acquired a much broader understanding of the environmental performance of activities, products and solutions. The company has learnt about the environmental impact its activities have at the different stages of the value chain; everything from the raw materials selected, how these are utilised and processed, the energy used

by SKF products when used in customers’ applications and what hap-

www.industrymagazine.com.tr

pens to the products after the end of life. This has made SKF realise that environmental impacts can be reduced in every stage of the value chain and that the greatest potential is found in the use phase – the way in which SKF’s products and solutions perform in each customer’s application.

Manufacturing efficiency In practice, SKF has been taking significant steps over a number of years to improve its own manufacturing operations. All new factories and logistics centres, wherever they are in the world are built to the latest LEED building standards and the ISO 50001 Energy Management Standard. SKF has also been working with key suppliers to help them meet similar levels of environmental responsibility and to reduce the level of energy used in, for example, the energy intensive steel manufacturing process.

In logistics SKF has been working

with transport partners to reduce the environmental impact of shipping. This includes contractual fuel consumption limitations for road logistics service providers, the decreased use of air freight, a high truck fill rate and involvement in the Clean Shipping programme.

The impact of these initiatives has been considerable. Between 2006 and 2013, when SKF’s global sales grew by 20%, the company reduced its energy requirements by 13% and its total greenhouse gas emissions, particularly carbon dioxide emissions, from its own operations by a similar figure.

Product lifecycle management A key component of the SKF BeyondZero concept is management of the life cycle of a product, from initial development to final disposal. Various studies have shown that many products have the greatest environmental impact during their use in customer applications;

in terms of total life cycle carbon emissions, this can be as much as 75%.

SKF products that fall within SKF’s BeyondZero portfolio, which is growing fast, have to meet tough criteria to ensure that they deliver real environmental benefits to each customer, without affecting product performance, quality or reliability in service. These criteria fall into two categories: * Designed for environment: the product or solution has to provide environmental benefits in its own right through some inherent characteristics, such as low friction or weight savings * Applied for environment: the product or solution must demonstrably help to improve the environmental performance of the customer application in which it is used.

Typical examples of SKF BeyondZero portfolio products and solutions

red then these savings can be considerable. Other developments include the fully-sealed SKF ConRo roll line unit for use in continuous casting operations in the steel industry; this can reduce CO2 emissions by an estimated 1.5 tons per roll line per year.

Becoming smart

include energy efficient high-speed permanent magnet motors for use with aeration blowers in wastewater treatment plants. These can reduce energy use by up to 40%, providing both commercial and environmental advantages. Similarly, SKF Sealed Energy Efficient (E2) de-

ep groove ball bearings significantly reduce frictional movement, leading to potential energy savings; although these may be relatively modest for each bearing, when the cumulative impact over time of replacing all bearings used in industrial motors, pumps and fans is conside-

The increasingly rapid move towards smart factories, where intelligent devices such as SKF Insight bearings, are used in sophisticated control and automation networks, will inevitably have a major impact on sustainability in the manufacturing sector. In the short term, the ability to smartify production operations will reduce energy and water use, and extend machine life to reduce scrap or waste still further.

Longer term, the acquired data and experiences from running smart systems will help companies develop a new generation of manufacturing tools and processes, and may also impact the design and construction of both premises and production lines. In each case there will be the opportunity to re-engineer existing systems to meet the challenges of ever better sustainability in an increasingly tough and competitive global environment.

Noncontact temperature measurement in heat treatment processes At this year’s METEC-THERMPROCESS exhibition, infrared temperature measurement experts Raytek and Ircon (Hall 9, Stand B73) will present their comprehensive pyrometer program for the metal working industry. By detecting infrared radiation from a distance to determine an object’s temperature, pyrometers reliably monitor products and processes with temperatures up to 3,000 °C. Exhibition highlights range from robust handheld devices to fixed pyrometers with rugged accessories, from OEM sensors with record-setting compact dimensions to highly precise thermal imaging systems. The team will be happy to advise visitors on the best way to tackle their particular application. Raytek and Ircon provide capable solutions for all scenarios involving digital or analog signals and automation environments featuring a variety of different fieldbuses or Industrial Ethernet protocols.

The latest addition to the product family, Raynger® 3i Plus handheld infrared thermometers are designed for highly demanding hot environments, measuring temperatures up to 3,000 °C. A high optical resolution allows for accurate temperature readings from longer distances. A heat-resistant “Red Nose” warning detector ensures operator safety and efficiency. Dual laser and

scope sighting, visible even against red-hot backgrounds, make this infrared thermometer a perfect choice for primary and secondary metals processes.

A wide range of spot pyrometers for fixed installation includes one and two-color (ratio) pyrometers as well as fiber-optic models suitable for extreme industrial environments. Installation in remote or hard to reach places is not a problem since the accompanying software allows for PC-based sensor configuration. Integrated automatic self-diagnosis functions ensure consistent accuracy. Through-thelens, laser, and/or video sighting facilitate orientation. Motorized focus control enables remote sensor re-focusing. Cooling accessories open up applications in ambient temperatures up to +315 °C.

The Raytek MI3 line includes the world’s smallest stand-alone pyrometer, 28 mm long and 14 mm wide. MI3 sensors are capable of withstanding ambient temperatures up to +180 °C without cooling.

Two shortwave models accurately measure reflective surfaces and are therefore better suited for metal sheet processing than longwave infrared sensors. MI3 sensors are also available with ATEX and IECEx certificates for use in potentially hazardous areas.

Raytek and Ircon line scanning systems generate thermal images of live processes for continuous or batch production as well as for discrete manufacturing. The systems have a wide 90° field of view. Featuring built-in laser sighting, watercooling, and an air purge housing, they withstand even the most demanding conditions. With a maximum optical resolution of 200:1, a scan speed of up to 150 lines per second, and up to 1,024 measurement points per line, they are among the most precise and fastest thermal imaging systems in the market. Even minimal temperature anomalies and hot spots are detected and displayed in real time.

Stauff presents own tube connector system made of steel Perfectly connected: new tube connector range Until now, the name Stauff has been primarily linked with one particular product group for mobile and industrial hydraulic applications: In most industrial countries Stauff Clamps symbolise quick and easy pipe and hose installations as well as a clean distinct pipe layout.

That will continue to be the case.

But it is now joined by another extensive product range with several thousand individual parts and assemblies which was also developed specifically for fluid power applications. With Stauff Connect, the company presents its first tube connector system developed and manufactured in-house.

A complete range The Stauff Connect range includes 24째 cutting ring connectors, connectors with 24째 sealing cones and O-ring, 24째 welding cones and 37째 flare fittings. The dimensions and designs of the steel connectors comply with the current standards (DIN 2353 and ISO 8434-1). They are suitable for the leak-free connection of metric tubes with diameters between 4 and 42 mm. The product range is completed by check and alternating valves, threaded reducers and blanking components. Special designs and sizes deviating from the standard products as well as alternative materials, material combinations and surfaces are available on request. Automated assembly machines and wearresistant tools for the manual as-

The shiny zinc/nickel surfaces truly reflect the high level of quality of Stauff Connect. sembly of tube connectors complete the product range and allow reliable installation of tube connectors in the workshop or at the construction site.

Reliable even under adverse conditions All components and the corresponding production drawings were designed by the Stauff in-house research and development specialists.

The complete range was tested thoroughly at the company technology centre. The employees can use state-of-the-art equipment, including a combined pressure pulse and vibration test bench, burst pressure test bench and torque test bench, which is unrivalled in the hydraulics

industry in this extent. This supports the high expectations for research and development which is one of the main principles at Stauff.

This equipment will continue to play a crucial role, particularly for the development of new components and systems, for the implementation of customer-specific test criteria and for gaining approvals from independent institutes, facilities and agencies.

With 800 bar in the Heavy Series and 500 bar in the Light Series, the pressure resistance of the tube connectors clearly exceeds the requirements of DIN 2353 / ISO 8434-1 for selected types and sizes. This clear increase in pressure levels not only

www.industrymagazine.com.tr

opens up a new range of application options and additional operational safety, it is also more economically efficient during use: It allows connectors from the Light Series to also be used instead of the Heavy Series. Of course the standardised dimensions were retained which saves additional installation space and manpower for installation. Unless indicated otherwise, the components are designed for the nominal pressure with a fourfold safety factor.

Highly efficient and lasting corrosion protection The high-quality zinc/nickel coating, which is used on the entire Stauff Connect product range, clearly exceeds previous market standards with over 1,200 hours resistance against red rust / base metal corrosion even after transport, handling and assembly of the components. This was confirmed by tests in the salt spray chamber in line with EN ISO 9227. The requirements for the highest corrosion protection class K5 (360 hours resistance to white rust / 720 hours resistance to red rust) for tube connections as defined in the VDMA standards sheet 24576 were clearly exceeded. Across industries and applications, users can benefit from a technology which has proven successful in the highly demanding automotive industry for many years.

Stauff has already been using this technology for a large part of its product range as a standard since the EU End of Life Vehicles Directive came into force in 2007.

One of the advantages of this type of corrosion protection is that it remains effective even in case of mechanical damage to the connection. If the surface is damaged, only

Additional production capacities were created for the new product range at the site in Werdohl. the top layers of sealing and passivation are affected, but not the zinc/nickel layer underneath, which provides the actual corrosion protection. This in turn has a high ductility to prevent it from being damaged or rendered ineffective through mechanical stress.

Last but not least, the eco-friendly and harmless coating provides a high quality appearance: The surface has a light colour and a slight sheen. The ductility of the optimised zinc/nickel surface supports the long wear life of the surface and consequently the corrosion protection: The plasticity and the abrasion

All components from one source The Stauff Connect products will be available to customers and sales partners with the market launch in April 2015. Stauff had offered tube connectors from other manufacturers in many international markets through its own international subsidiaries for several decades, so the company’s staff is already familiar with the application options and the selection of these components.

The “Stauff clamp” is synonymous with fast, easy and reliable tube and hose fixings all over the world. resistance of the coating exceed standard requirements.

Combined production through interest in the Volz Group Stauff has acquired an interest in the Volz Group to gain immediate access to manufacturing know-how and modern machinery for the production of tube connectors. The internationally renowned manufactu-

14

May - June 2015

rer of high-quality tube and hose connections from Deilingen/Germany manufactures the system components to the highest quality standards and delivers them to Werdohl where they are assembled to form customised connector systems.

In addition to the possibilities for producing the extensive product range in large quantities at Volz, additional production capacities with state-of-the-art machining centres were created at the Stauff plant in Werdohl.

These allow the production and machining of small and medium series as well as of customer-specific variants within the shortest time possible.

The powerful logistics and the warehouse capacities were further expanded to meet the requirements of the new product range.

Why “insourcing” now? This a strategically important step that Stauff has taken after long and careful consideration. Many users of Stauff clamps want to purchase additional components for (hydraulic) tubes from a „single source“ and in the same quality, with the same product variety and the same reliability as for the clamps. They are aiming to reduce the number of their suppliers by procuring complete packages, modules or systems from one single source. Stauff has a good starting position for this, as the product range already includes not only the clamps but also test equipment, flanges, ball valves, flow control valves as well as other components for the construction of tanks, reservoirs, power packs and gear boxes in industrial and mobile hydraulics.

This made the development of its own tube connector range a logical step for the company. At Hanover Fair, visitors can additionally expect other new products, including an innovation in the field of pressure testing technology which will revolutionise the processes in preventive maintenance and service of machines and systems.

Parker launches innovative CNG fuel regulation module for medium- to heavy-duty vehicles with 5-to-12 litre engines An advanced fuel regulation module, the industry’s first fully integrated CNG (compressed natural gas) flow control and regulation system for medium- and heavy-duty vehicles with 5- to 12-litre engines has been launched by the Instrumentation Products Division of Parker Hannifin - the global leader in motion and control technologies. Parker’s advanced FM80 withstands extreme variations in temperature, flow, vibration, supply pressure, and gas composition, setting a new standard in CNG fuel handling.

Most current gas handling systems are typically comprised of a rubberlike diaphragm regulator, filter, sensors and solenoid plumbed together with a multitude of fittings.

Unlike current systems, Parker’s FM80 features an advanced FM80 metal piston-style regulator, coalescent filters, pressure sensors, a lock-off solenoid valve, heat exchanger and low-pressure relief valve, integrated in one compact body.

Other Parker components to complete the fully customisable, integrated system include hoses, fittings, seals, manual shut-off valve, check valves, receptacles, and nozzles.

The system offers customisable levels of integration and more configuration options than comparable products. The complete CNG fuel system exceeds industry standards

The first fully integrated CNG flow control and regulation system for medium/heavy-duty vehicles with 5- to 12-litre engines has been launched by Parker. for leakage and safety. It has been tested on a variety of engines and meets the flow and regulation specifications of all leading OEMs with CNG options.

The FM80 was designed by the Veriflo Division of Parker, well known in the industry for its wide range of robust and reliable regulators. According to Madhukar Puniani, Business Development Manager (Natural Gas Systems), “Aside from being the only complete system solution

on the market, the Parker FM80 fuel regulation module offers several breakthrough features to improve performance and vehicle uptime. A larger oil sump means longer times between filter drains, helping increase driver productivity and asset utilisation. Innovative technology prevents freezing problems in the winter and eliminates leakage of gas into coolant from wear of soft diaphragms and seals over time.”

FM80 was engineered for medium- to heavy-duty vehicles like delivery and day cab trucks, cement trucks, school and mass transit buses, and waste refuse/recycling vehicles. Optimised for advanced fuel

poppet design that eliminates lateral loads and seat wear; thermal shielding of internal components with PTFE seals to isolate gas flow, allowing continuous operation even in extreme -40 to +120 degrees C ambient temperatures; optional boost pressure augmentation for optimised outlet pressure and performance of turbocharged engines, and compact size - offering maximum efficiency in a small space.

The first fully integrated CNG flow control and regulation system for medium/heavy-duty vehicles with 5- to 12-litre engines has been launched by Parker. handling performance in 5- to 12litre engines, Veriflo’s piston-style regulator design offers stable pressure delivery and control of CNG throughout the full range of extreme engine and environmental operating conditions. Integrated internal regulator components, with fewer connections, work together to eliminate fuel line failures due to freezing, dampen flow-induced vibration, reduce drop at high flow, and extend cycle life. The manifold design of the regulator system re-

duces the chance of fuel line pressure increase due to reduced volume of fuel between the solenoid valve and regulator seals. In addition to the FM80, Parker offers multiple fuel module options for system integrators and OEMs. The FM80 is designed to achieve the highest nominal flow rate (80 kg/hour) in the industry and the lowest low-pressure operating parameter (250 PSIG), which increases the usable range of CNG vehicles by a critical 3-to-5 percent.

Other key features and advantages include: an integrated heating circuit that uses heated radiator fluid to condition the gas before it enters the engine, offering improved reliability at low temperatures and eliminating fuel line failures due to freezing; good response to power demand for better driveability; a well-dampened piston that reduces Parker's fully integrated CNG flow control and reflow-induced vibration; gulation system - showing the front and rear view of the variant fitted with a large coalescing filter. reduced pressure drop; constrained motion

Tamara Horne of Parker Veriflo Division adds: “Parker is committed to providing cutting-edge technologies to reduce the world’s dependence on diesel fuel, which is widely used in medium- and heavyduty fleet and industrial vehicles.

Natural gas is cleaner, more economical, and less toxic to the air and environment than diesel. Parker is proud to be the first manufacturer to offer a fully integrated, high-performance CNG fuel management system. The FM80 is the ideal system when performance and productivity of a transport fleet is critical to a business.”

Parker leads the way in the design and manufacture of multi-technology systems, subsystems, and components that filter, regulate, control, and convey CNG. Parker also offers the industry’s best fleet dispensing solutions for high-flow, high-cycle CNG applications.

Attributes such as shock and vibration resistance, -40˚C to +55˚C operating temperature range, and IP65 water and dust ingress rating make the ETOS-1000 an ideal solution for outdoor and extreme environments. The ETOS-1000 can also utilize ADLINK’s application ready intelligent platform (ARiP) software, which includes PacketManager, remote management functions, and system management APIs for appli-

cation developers. ARiPs enable customers to focus primarily on their application instead of the IoT platform building blocks required for cloud computing. The ETOS1000 reduces maintenance costs by eliminating fans and filters and offering worry-free, weather-resistant, high-speed connections for copper or fiber options.

Local CNC Experts Help Chinese Company to Develop Radically Improved Gear Cutting Machine • combining local expertise with NUM’s unique know-how in gear production helps achieve a machine that can outpace other gear hobbers.

NUM China has helped Betek to accelerate the development of a groundbreaking six-axis precision gear hobbing machine. By utilising a direct-drive spindle and NUM’s ultraprecise electronic gearbox and renowned CNC gear hobbing technology, together with a unique HMI developed by a local specialist machine designer, the new Betek YK3132Z gear hobber provides unprecedented cutting speed and processing efficiency. It is up to 10 times faster than conventional mechanical gear hobbers – and more than twice as fast as competitive six-axis CNC gear hobbing machines – and looks set to establish a new performance standard for gear production automation.

Based in Tianjin, China, Tianjin Betek Machinery Manufacturing Co., Ltd (Betek) specialises in the production and processing of mechanical parts for industrial applications.

The company’s experience of using machine tools in its manufacturing operations, combined with market research, highlighted major opportunities in the domestic gear pro-

duction market. China has a growing need for CNC gear cutting machines that combine precision, high processing efficiency and ease of use, to replace inefficient mechanical designs. In 2013, the company took the strategic decision to diversify into the production of gear cutting machines, investing 80 million yuan (approximately 13 million USD) in a 25,000 square metre purpose-built manufacturing plant and offices.

Betek’s latest CNC machine tool, the six-axis YK3132Z gear hobber, is now available – less than two years after the start of development. At the beginning of the project, the company looked at CNC systems from a number of manufacturers, and quickly decided to base the

machine on NUM’s Flexium+ CNC platform.

According to Betek’s President and General Manager, Mr Jin Guolin, “Our main reason for choosing NUM’s CNC systems for our new gear hobber is that, unlike many competitive control products on the market, they have an open architecture. This provides an unrestricted foundation for development and customisation work, helping us to reduce costs and shorten timeto-market significantly. We intend standardising on NUM CNC for future machines whenever possible – for example, we are currently developing a new gear grinder that will also be based on NUM’s CNC technology.”

facility in nearby Beijing was also a consideration – it means that Betek benefits from responsive locallyplaced applications support and technical service.

For the gear hobbing machine project, another factor behind Betek’s choice of CNC supplier was NUM’s extensive experience in gear production applications, which spans

several decades. Its CNC gear hobbing solutions, based on NUMgear software, are used by many leading manufacturers of gear production machines. The proximity of NUM’s

Betek’s new YK3132Z six axis gear hobbing machine is based entirely on NUM CNC equipment. It uses the latest Flexium+ CNC kernel and high-end NUMDrive X servo drives in conjunction with compact BHX and SHX servomotors; high resolution encoders and closed-loop control maximise accuracy of speed and position. Both the turret spindle motor – a built-in model – and the table (C axis) torque motor are powerful direct drive units that are also controlled by a NUMDrive X servo drive. These motors completely eliminate the need for mechanical power transmission components such as worm and helical bevel gears, resulting in precision, backlash-free movement.

The turret spindle can handle speeds up to 1,200 RPM, while the table can rotate at up to 280 RPM; this allows use of the latest high-speed cutting tools. Accuracy and reliability are further enhanced by the machine’s use of high rigidity servomotor-driven precision ball screws for its linear axes.

Offering unprecedented cutting speed and processing efficiency, the new Betek YK3132Z six-axis gear hobber is based entirely on precision CNC technology from NUM.

The NUMgear suite of gear production software that is being supplied includes dedicated hobbing functions and a precision electronic gearbox that allows all master axes and the turret spindle to be fully synchronised. The electronic gearbox minimises synchronisation time by predicting the acceleration rate as well as the speed of the axes.

Florian Schmidt, NUM’s Product Manager, points out that Mactool and NUM China have collaborated on several high value CNC machine projects in recent years, adding that: “To provide our customers with their ideal solution we combine the best of all worlds.”

ar hobbing machine is via a NUM FS152i operator panel with a custom HMI. The operator panel features a 15-inch high resolution backlit LCD screen with 22 large function keys and contains a powerful industrial PC. The HMI makes extensive use of graphics and is inherently intuitive; users can operate the machine after just a few hours of simple training. Gear manufacturing data can either be input using a simple ‘fill in the blanks’ method or derived from previously processed parts – the software includes database management functions.

The custom HMI software was developed specifically for the machine

Mr. Haiyu agrees on the benefits of collaboration, “I believe that partnerships provide customers with an enormous competitive advantage.

By working closely together, NUM, Mactool and Betek have jointly created a highly advanced precision gear hobbing machine that looks set to enjoy significant market success. Based on a fully proven and stable CNC system, the machine is way ahead of the competition in terms of its usability, efficiency and performance. The excellent production management and quality control systems that Betek has put in place will help to ensure that its customers benefit from a worldclass precision machine – but at significantly lower cost than comparable products.”

Virtually any type of gear can be cut, including unusual types such as parallel shaft, herringbone, taper and non-circular gears. For maximum machining accuracy the machine uses dry cutting techniques, capable of achieving Level 6 precision on interim cut gears and Level 3 precision on finished products. Dry cutting also obviates the need for cutting fluid, which is a common form of pollutant in machining industries that requires special treatment and disposal.

Leader sees the attraction of magnetic workholding solutions Tamworth-based workholding specialist, Leader Chuck Systems, has recently expanded its product portfolio for securing workpieces during machining operations with the addition of the extensive range of magnetic fixturing systems from Walmag Magnetics. These include permanent magnet, electromagnet and electropermanent systems for grinding, turning, drilling and milling, as well as wire and die sink EDM machining.

“Fixing the workpiece on a magnetised chuck allows easy access to five faces for the machine tool making it an effective way of holding the raw material for simultaneous 5-axis or 3+2 positional milling operations,” explains Managing Director, Mark Jones.

He continues: “Previously part of the Walker Magnetics Group, Walmag has an established reputation for developing and manufacturing high performance workholding solutions using various magnetic technologies. With a depth of application knowledge built up over many years the Walmag staff can provide extensive information and offer manufacturing industry focused advice on aspects of workholding using magnetic force.”

Designed to be robust and totally maintenance free, the range of Walmag permanent magnetic chucks are ideal for grinding. Howe-

The control unit allows the operation to be automated and the chucks can be produced in various sizes from standard dimensions to several meters in length and width.

Die Sink EDM coils supplied with a DC current.

The field is activated by a control unit that allows quick magnetisation of the workpiece. With the coil sizes designed to suit the application a very strong magnetic field can be created resulting in a tight clamping of the workpiece, and they are typically suited to grinding and turning operations. Thanks to the powerful magnetic field it is possible to reliably clamp even rough workpieces, as it can overcome any gaps between the workpiece and the chuck. The control unit allows the magnetic force to be varied to suit

the application and operation can be manual, automatic or combined, and chuck sizes can be matched to suit the workpiece.

Combining permanent and electromagnetic technology the electropermanent magnetic range offers high clamping forces for heavy milling operations. As power is only required during clamping and unclamping the chuck is fail safe in operation, all machining is done without any current. The minimal requirement of electrical current means that no significant heat is ge-

For EDM applications a special low power magnetic field is used to minimise any influence on the sparked material, and the chucks are constructed to be submerged in the dieelectric fluid.

Professional cleaning of castings During the upcoming trade fair GIFA, AGTOS will show the foundry industry current concepts of shot blasting technology. As far as the machines are concerned, a complete shot blasting plant will be shown which is also suitable for the treatment of aluminium parts.

This machine requires a relatively small floor area and is characterised by a low loading height. The loading and unloading process can be carried out both manually and fully automatically.

The topic of service concerns all users of shot blasting machines.

Thus, the second main focus of our trade fair booth is on the turbine technique. By means of assembly demonstrations, AGTOS service technicians will show and explain the advantages of the versatile AGTOS high performance turbines.

The presentation of the quick assembly by means of simple tools will certainly provide interesting information for practitioners. The fact that the wear parts of the high performance turbines are available made of different materials shows the flexible application in foundries.

Handle drives or motion profiles for any network with Anybus CompactCom

HMS Industrial Networks now presents a new solution for handling profiles - mainly targeting drives and motion applications. The extension to the new Anybus CompactCom 40-series enables drives manufacturers to comply with common profile specifications such as PROFIdrive, EtherCAT DS402, and transparent DS402 on other networks.

Trends such as Industry 4.0 and the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) mean that more and more industri-

al devices are getting connected to industrial networks. This is especially true when it comes to drives or inverters which are the most networked devices of all – 3.5 million inverters and 800,000 servo drives are expected to be networked during 2015. But developing and maintaining connectivity to different networks is both time-consuming and resource-demanding – especially if you want to comply to drive and motion profiles for several networks. Now, by integrating support

for Anybus CompactCom into a drive, device manufacturers will be able to offer wide fieldbus and industrial Ethernet connectivity along with integrated profile support to their customers - all through one, single development project.

Multi-network connectivity with profiles for drives – How it works Different networks have different standards for how to communicate with a drive (for example, to tell the drive to operate at a certain speed).

www.industrymagazine.com.tr

These so called “drive profiles” or “motion profiles” are supported by the Anybus concept through a Profile Driver Package — a software stack which is implemented into the drive during development. The ready-made source code from HMS can be quickly integrated into the processor of any drive.

Consequently, the profile-specific data is not actually “translated” inside the Anybus CompactCom. Rather, it passes through the module’s transparent channel unchanged and the conversion is done in the drive utilizing HMS’ Profile Driver Package. The DS402-based Profile Driver can be used to handle any CAN-based profile – not just drives and motion profiles – on any network. For example:

The Anybus CompactCom 40-series enables drives manufacturers to comply with the demands from all major networks, even for demanding high-performance standards such as EtherCAT or PROFINET 2.31.

The 40-series is especially designed for demanding applications requiring low latency and high data throughput. (Process data latency is lower than 15µs and 1500 bytes of process data can be transferred in each direction).

The 40-series products are pre-certified for network conformance by all the major network organizations which substantially speeds up testing and compliance. HMS also offers implementation help as a packaged service for drives manufacturers.

milling tool,” Seculi says. “Users should expect true 90-degree shoulders and floors, superior surface finish on both, and higher metal-removal rates at lower horsepower for savings all around.”

The new VSM490 double-sided shoulder milling platform from WIDIA is a powerful advantage for achieving true 90-degree shoulders and floors with superior surface finish.

Numerous precision parts in transportation, moldmaking, general engineering, and more require true 90-degree shoulders and floors with superior surface finish. Economic and competitive pressures require manufacturers of all parts to maximize metal removal and tool life. The new VSM490 double-sided shoulder milling platform from WIDIA is a powerful advantage for achieving all this and more.

“Go ahead and get aggressive with feed rates,” says Global Product Manager Juan Seculi. “Not only will you see the depth of cut is much bigger (up to 15mm or 0.590 inches), scallop or stepdown marks are barely noticeable. Poor surface quality means additional operations and higher cycle times. Take the VSM490 performance upgrade and add that double-sided inserts deliver a sizeable cost benefit over single-sided tools and the VSM490 advantages become compelling.”

Designed for low horsepower draw and free machining, VSM490 delivers an effective one-two punch of reduced horsepower at the machine and higher speed and feed rates that get jobs done faster and/or

Eplan Preplanning

Eplan Preplanning manages a project's machine/plant system overviews and automation structures in parallel.

Eplan Preplanning focuses on basic engineering – the upstream planning phase before classic detail engineering. Project data from preliminary designs can be transferred into the Eplan Platform early in the process without any discontinuities. The data can be further enhanced there, managed and processed.

Eplan Preplanning allows users to define the automation structure for a machine/plant during a project’s earliest stages: for instance, importing an initial list of drives from mechanical engineering that contains only basic information about which are being planned for use in a conveyor system. With Eplan Preplanning, the engineer can define

34

May - June 2015

what he considers to be the central automation structures for the machine/ plant and position the drives within this structure. In basic engineering, the I&C engineers pass on the information about sensors and actuators until, in the detail engineering, they can create or derive the schematics from the information at hand.

Gather, evaluate, manage specification data Typical automation process procedures are also professionally supported – defining field instrumentation, for example. Until now, the most commonly utilised tools have not yet been sufficiently integrated into the engineering process – Ex-

cel, as just one example. Eplan Preplanning enables the collection, recording and template-based managing of initial, rough requirements all the way through to detailed specification data for designing field equipment. Additional advantages are created by embedding devices within the preplanning structure because machine and plant hierarchy information is also transferred. If, for instance, the ambient temperature must be adjusted for an area in a metal finishing plant, this updated change of environmental conditions is automatically assigned to all device specifications within this area. Designation changes for machine/plant areas are al-

www.industrymagazine.com.tr

so automatically inherited by their underlying components. Since the project data has been acquired in an integrated manner, meaningful and detailed evaluations – such as requirement specifications for device manufacturers – can be generated at the push of a button. Based on this documentation, the appropriate device technology will be selected further along in the engineering process, and will be stored in the project as a defined component with the corresponding supplementary device data.

Uniform nomenclature simplifies templates Due to the comprehensive possibilities for configuration, Eplan Preplanning allows users to customise

the working environment to their own needs. So-called segment definitions serve as established identifiers for the individual structural levels. Whether the structural levels are for production lines, sections of conveyor systems or tank areas: the matching nomenclature is systematically stored in the templates, which simplifies handling of these structural objects. The same principle holds for planning objects – all the way down to the properties.

When importing a list of motors from mechanical engineering, there is a 1:1 mapping of the delivered properties and information onto the device types. For an I&C design task, Eplan Preplanning allows the creation of various measurementpoint types that can easily be added

to the machine/plant structures via drag & drop. Users decide whether certain properties should be entered as a reference or as a specific measurement point. Referenced properties can quickly be changed across entire projects via centralised template management. This working method is advantageous, especially in a project’s early phases, when fundamental principles for tank level measurement (of tuning forks, impellers or even continual measurement) might vary due to changing customer requests.

This allows a determination of the number of field devices required along with the necessary automation components, or calculation of initial rough cost estimates.

Distributed servo technology bends panels into better shape Author: Fabio Massari, Sales Manager, Kollmorgen, Italy

Salvagnini simplifies the design of its machines using drive solutions from Kollmorgen Making a departure from traditional drive architectures in its new P2lean generation of machines, Salvagnini the world's leading manufacturer of panel bending machines is using distributed servo amplifiers for positioning, instead of keeping drives installed centrally in the control cabinet. And with this solution, the new Kollmorgen AKD-D series generates cost savings throughout the whole value chain.

Another first by the Italian machinery manufacturer: Replacing the central hydraulic pump by a synchronized network of electrically-driven servo actuators.

Each bending machine process cycle starts by the operator laying a metal sheet on the horizontal work surface. The workpiece is aligned to the bending unit fully automatically, by positioning axes under a blankholder. This clamps the panel in place while the bending unit, with its moveable blades, quickly performs any number of upward or downward bends. The precision of the reference position is essential for subsequent manufacturing quality because it is only done once for each workpiece during the processing cycle.

Drives simply placed next to the motors To drive the built-in positioning units, Salvagnini uses distributed

36

May - June 2015

AKD-N series servos from Kollmorgen. With the new product generation, from the drive technology and motion control specialist, it is very easy to install the drives directly where they are required, in close proximity to the motors. One advantage of this distributed architecture comes from the dramatically reduced cost of the cabling for the seven distributed servo axes in the P2lean.

Using a central structure with control cabinet converters, the shielded cable between the motor and the drive and the cable for the feedback system previously could have needed laying up to 10 meters of cable. For the seven positioning axes that would have made a total of 140 meters of wiring (14 wires of 10 meters each). With this solution, using a central AKD-C power supply module in the control cabinet and seven distributed servo drives in two groups with three and four axes, this has now been reduced to only 40 meters. The total length is calculated as follows: two hybrid cables with power supply and feedback between the power supply module and the two nearest drive cables for a total of 20 meters, plus three meters for connecting the three axes in the first group and four and a half meters for a further three axes in the second group, knowing that the average distance

www.industrymagazine.com.tr

between the IP67 devices in the system is not more than one and a half meters. The power supply to the motors then has to be considered. They are also installed not more than one and a half meters from the distributed AKD-N servo drives.

Because the Kollmorgen solution is equipped with its innovative single cable connection technology, only 7.5 meters more cable is needed.

Considering only the use of the distributed AKD-N servo drives combined with the single cable connection system, this saves 100 meters of cable - by reducing from 140 to 40 meters or roughly 71%.

More efficiency by using less This careful management of equipment resources produces other improvements that are a direct result of having much shorter cables. They take up less space in the machine and not only that, they are quicker to install. The fewer number of connectors also saves time when connecting - which results in cost savings of 30 percent.

The other benefits of distributed servo technology are not inside the machine itself, - but in the control cabinet. Now that the drive’s heat loss no longer has to dissipate behind closed doors, the cost of cooling the cabinet is reduced. This produces two knock-on effects: firstly a smaller-scale and consequently cheaper cooling system and secondly, improved energy efficiency as a result of the control cabinet’s lower energy consumption.

Savings of 30 percent have been estimated by Kollmorgen in real applications.

Space-saving, increased energy efficiency and lower installation and

only the active bending processes and does not have to keep the entire system with all its bells and whistles ready for operation.

Thanks to the standard precision of the Kollmorgan drive axes, the required bending forces can be applied faster and with higher repeat precision, resulting in manufacturing quality improvement.

assembly costs are three benefits of distributed servo technology embodied by the AKD-N servo amplifiers from Kollmorgen, which also bring tangible cost savings with them. It is interesting to note that this strict management of resources, in this case also incurs lower cost for the hardware. When considering the drive equipment part of the installation, a distributed architecture costs at least 3.5% less than the central control cabinet solution for the smallest Salvagnini machine.

For systems with more performance and a greater number of axes, gains of up to 10 percent can be achieved.

Increased energy efficiency Savagnini are also using Kollmorgan's drive technology in another of their innovative advances. To replace the central hydraulic system, with a main pump and its correspondingly powerful asynchronous motor, they are using three highly efficient servo actuators, driven by Kollmorgen AKM servo motors and

by S700 Series servo amplifiers, delivering power only at the moment the process requires it. Resulting from this, energy efficiency is increased, because the system drives

All in all, Savignini has succeeded with the P2lean in developing both an economic, ecological and consequently highly competitive machine for panel bending companies. The distributed servo technology from Kollmorgen adds a valuable contribution to resource efficiency especially in terms of cabling, control cabinet space and cooling.

Ophir Optics To Highlight Fiberlens™ Extremely Low-Absorption One-Micron Optics for Fiber Lasers At LASER World of PHOTONICS in Munich Ophir Optics, a leading designer and manufacturer of precision infrared and laser optics, will demonstrate its Fiberlens™, a series of innovative collimating lenses, focusing lenses and protective windows for use with high-power fiber lasers, at the LASER World of PHOTONICS Exposition 2015 in Munich from June 22 - 25.

The Fiberlens™ series, which are designed for use with high-power fiber and disk lasers, feature extremely low absorption fused silica substrates and high laser-damagethreshold, long-lifetime, low-absorption anti-reflection coatings on the lenses and windows. Absorption is extremely low at < 50 parts per million (ppm), ensuring the highest cutting quality when using multi-kilowatt fiber, disk, and YAG lasers. Low absorption ensures that Ophir optics avoid phenomena such as thermal lensing and focus shift, which degrade cutting quality and cutting speed.

To guarantee the high quality and low absorption in its one micron la-

Veritas AG Selects Moog Simulation Table for Testing Fluid Tank Systems Moog Industrial Group, a division of Moog Inc. (NYSE: MOG.A and MOG.B) was selected by Veritas AG, a global leader in the production of fluid systems, molding parts and thermo systems for the automotive industry, to supply the Moog Electric Simulation Table with Tilt. This innovative test system (patent pending 1) was specially designed for testing the behavior of fluid in in automotive fuel and fluid tank systems, a test application that requires large angular motions. Veritas AG ordered the system to perform tests on automotive SCR (Selective Catalytic Reduction) fluid tanks that are used to inject liquidreducing agents in catalytic converters for the reduction of harmful emissions. The test system has been successfully installed and currently Veritas AG is performing the first series of tests.

The Electric Simulation Table with Tilt is designed to perform dynamic liquid sloshing tests, and has the ability to simulate real-world road conditions. This new technology development has already been adopted by Fiat Group Automobiles (FGA), now called Fiat Chrysler Automobiles (FCA) for testing fuel tank systems. The behavior of the liquid and components of the tank system can be tested and evaluated in a confidential laboratory setting, as opposed to a test track. The test results will allow Veritas AG to make the right choices when develo-

novative Electric Simulation Table with Tilt is fully embraced by the market as the effective solution to simulate liquid sloshing behavior and test fluid tank systems in a safe and controlled laboratory settingâ&#x20AC;?, says Marie-Laure Gelin, Solutions marketing manager test and simulation at Moog.

Veritas AG selects Moog simulation table for testing fluid tank systems. ping new fluid tanks. The company chose the Moog system because it is specially designed for this application, uses plug and play electric actuation technology and is easy to use and maintain.

The Moog test system is comprised of an Electric Simulation Table with an innovative additional tilt table on top for increased pitch and roll motion. The Electric Simulation Table is used to reproduce the higher frequency road profiles, where the tilt table can simulate the cornering and acceleration behavior of the vehicle. This enables Veritas AG to include various conditions during driving that lead to extreme fluidsloshing effects, such as instant braking or very sharp cornering maneuvers. In addition, the Moog Replication test software module will enable Veritas AG to replicate and play out time history drive files that were recorded at the test track.

An Electric Simulation Table is designed to perform product development tests and driver simulation research. Position, velocity and acceleration are controlled by the system through integrated control hardware and software. In addition to the electric actuators of the simulation table, the tilt table features two electric actuators for increased pitch and roll motions up to 30 degrees. The total pitch and roll angles of the test system exceed 50 degrees.

The Electric Simulation Table with Tilt is part of the Simulation Table product range, which also contains various hydraulic solutions for high frequency durability and fatigue testing. Tests that are typically performed with electric simulation tables include: Driving simulation, ride and comfort testing, qualitative evaluation of human response, vehicle components testing, NVH (Noise, Vibration and Harshness), BSR (Buzz, Squeak and Rattle testing), turret testing, antenna testing and medical research applications.

footing” can best be shortlisted at a trade fair like the METAV, since it’s there that all the important XXL vendors are gathered together at a single location.

This search was conducted at boardroom level: Christian Roterring, an engineering graduate and Managing Director of Erka Maschinenbau GmbH from Ahaus-Wüllen, was at the METAV, his company’s favoured trade fair, to find a replacement for an aged bed-type milling machine now more than 20 years old. After the fair, he finally decided on a travelling-column milling machine from MTE Machine Tool Engineering, S.A. in Itziar, Spain. The machine is designed to handle components measuring up to 8 metres in length, 2.5 metres in height and 1.2 metres in width. It possesses a multi-purpose milling head swivelling automatically in two planes, a 40fold tool changer, a Rückle round table, and an integrated Renishaw probe. “At first we were intending

Erka is looking for a vendor of equal standing For his XXL machine, Christian Roterring attached particular importance to finding a vendor who in every phase of the collaboration would offer corresponding XXL service support. It was here that the German-Spanish large-machine manufacturer MTE from Montabaur in the state of Rhineland-Palatinate faced an exceptionally tough challenge. “The first step involved was to check the building’s structure,” says the entrepreneur. “In our case, because of the poor quality of the subsoil, there was a lot of extremely demanding foundation work needed.” A good XXL vendor, he adds, will excel in terms of being familiar with these problems and being able to provide appropriate assistance. Machinery manufacturers

XXL machine completes the company’s stock of machinery The METAV search proved to be successful: the MTE system for manufacturing large-dimensioned components has since 2013 rounded off the company’s stock of machinery. To quote Christian Roterring: “Our comprehensive capability portfolio makes it easier for many customers to order ready-toinstall components from us. When we find something’s outside our capabilities in terms of its dimensions, then on occasion we will decline an order.” But since investing in the MTE machine this does not happen so often: Erka uses it, for instance, to machine very long components, from which customers make base frames for their machines.

ThyssenKrupp presents ACCEL, a game-changing transit solution for cities and airports at UITP 2015 in Milan from June 8-10 It is unique; passengers enter walking at a regular speed and get accelerated at high-speeds to the other end. Applying linear motor technology from the Transrapid magnetic train, the ACCEL transportation system will facilitate fast access to metro stations, making it possible to have a station entrance at less than 600 metres from any commuter, attracting up to 30% additional passengers. In airport terminals, ACCEL can cut current transit times between gates by a remarkable two-thirds.

due to its distance from their locations.

Metro system capacities can now be maximised with new access points, and by increasing the connectivity of current metro networks, the new transportation system could capture 30% additional passengers. Implementing ACCEL works as an alternative to building expensive additional stations or carving complex underground connections, and results in a significant decrease in the number of road transport vehicles in use.

ThyssenKrupp Elevator presents its latest technological development ACCEL, at the UITP 2015 World Congress and Exhibition in Milan from June 8-10, one of the largest international gatherings on public transportation. The unique transportation system offers high capacities and high speeds for short distances, with no waiting times for passengers and low implementation costs.

With this new solution, ThyssenKrupp marks its entrance into the mass transit sector.

Commenting on ACCEL's many advantages, Andreas Schierenbeck, CEO, ThyssenKrupp Elevator AG, said, "ACCEL is our contribution in aiding the urban shift from road to rail - the ultimate goal for transportation authorities in large cities today. By reducing transit times in airport hubs and providing both rail and airport operators a cost-effective solution that requires no complex civil or infrastructure work, ThyssenKrupp ACCEL is successfully catering to the current needs of our rapidly developing urban communities".

As congestion in urban transport networks rises in tandem with the population increase in cities, city governments are under continual pressure to reduce road traffic congestion and combat the costs it imposes in terms of immense wastage of time, energy, and environmental resources. ThyssenKrupp ACCEL was developed to address this need in the current multimodal transportation network of large cities.

The ACCEL transportation system facilitates the building of passenger feeders to existing metro stations, making them easily accessible even to commuters who do not usually use the metro

42

May - June 2015

ACCEL also benefits airport operators looking to improve transit times between gates or between distant parking bays and the airport. With no waiting times or barrier gates, passengers need only 140 seconds to cover a distance of 270 metres, instead of the earlier 415 seconds, resulting in an impressive time saving of 66 percent. For airport operators, it eliminates the need and high costs associated with providing buses, automated people movers, or sky-trains for distances of up to 1.5 km.

ACCEL can transport as many passengers as typical fully automated cabin

systems, move up to 7,300 passengers per hour per direction, and combines smooth speed changes and the highest safety requirements for passenger transportation. Using a band of overlapping pallets that expand to three times the original size of each pallet, ACCEL's revolutionary technology, applying the linear motor technology of the magnetic train Transrapid, ensures that passengers step onto the belt at normal walking speeds of 0.65 m/s (2.35 km/h), accelerate smoothly up to 2 m/s (7.2 km/h), and then decelerate back to normal walking speeds before leaving the system. For passengers who continue walking while on the belt, speeds of up to 3.3 m/s (12 km/h) can also be achieved.

In addition to being easy to use, ACCEL does not require large teams to operate and maintain, is a perfect solution to fill the current gap in short distance transportation in cities and airports, and is a very competitive alternative to existing automated people movers for distances of up to 1.5 km.

With this product, ThyssenKrupp's engineers have again increased safety and ease of maintenance while concurrently saving on operating costs. ACCEL was developed by the ThyssenKrupp Elevator R&D Centre with the support of the ThyssenKrupp Transrapid project and key suppliers such as Prodrive, Tecnotion, and Beckhoff.

We look forward to seeing you at the ThyssenKrupp booth (3B 183) at UITP 2015 on June 8-10 in Milan.
