PcVue launches proximity-aware mobile solution for SCADA systems Known for its expertise in the HMI/SCADA space, ARC Informatique’s core product, PcVue, is now entering an uncharted market through an innovative mobile offering for SCADA in intelligent buildings. Proximity-based services enabled by micro-geolocation for Indoor Positioning Systems (IPS) are growing quickly. The IPS technology market alone is estimated to reach $5 billion in revenues by 2017 and to represent over 200,000 installations of equipment. This technology has made possible the practical deployment of contextual Human Machine Interfaces (HMI). Contextual HMI creates the opportunity for new more efficient work processes for those who rely on Supervisory
Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) and Building Management Systems (BMS) to perform their job. For safety, it is critical that the Mobility Server knows the current location of workers. With the ready availability of geolocation signals, IPS indoors and GPS outdoors, it is possible to track location by simply archiving the device’s position over time. Safety and dispatch tracking are natural functions of the Mobility Server which relies on position in order to create contextual HMI. A mobility infrastructure provides
a dynamic HMI that changes as the worker moves through workplace zones automatically adjusting for job responsibility. In a plant scenario, such a system is aware which floor a worker is on and automatically sends the status and controls of equipment in that worker’s proximity. It is a very pro-active approach that is recognized to improve the efficiency of commissioning, operation and maintenance of automation systems.

HMS introduces first EtherNet/ IP linking device HMS Industrial Networks recently released the first product in a new family of EtherNet/IP Linking Devices. The new Serial EtherNet/IP Linking Device allows users to connect any serial device to a Rockwell ControlLogix® or CompactLogix® PLC. The main advantage of the new Linking Device is the unique integration to Rockwell’s Studio5000 Logix Designer. The new serial EtherNet/IP Linking Device makes it possible to include any automation device with a serial RS-232/422/485 application interface in an EtherNet/IP-based network architecture. It supports all kinds of serial protocols including Modbus, DF1, produce/consume, ASCII and custom protocols. Contrary to an in-chassis module which is physically connected to the PLC, the Linking Device can be mounted close to the connected machine. This means
that it is possible to establish a connection via a single Ethernet cable instead of multiple network specific cables. Kevin Knake, Executive Vice President, HMS Inc, said, “The Serial EtherNet/IP Linking Device is the first step in our Linking Devices program and we will add versions for PROFIBUS Serial EtherNet/IP Linking Devices from and Modbus TCP later during HMS Industrial 2016. With the Serial Linking Networks Device, we can offer a cost-efficient solution with a very tight integration to Studio 5000 which will give many Rockwell users easy access to serial devices such as variable frequency drives, barcode scanners, process instrumentation and weight controllers.” All configuration is made inside Studio 5000 where there is support for Process Variable Data Tags and manual and automatic generation of named and structured Studio 5000 Controller Tags without any required user logic.
All configuration is made from inside Rockwell Automation’s Studio5000 Logix Designer.

GE recently announced plans to set up an Industrial Internet Centre of Excellence at the Indian Institute of Technology Madras (IIT Madras), one of the foremost institutes in higher technological education, to develop power intensive applications with the first focus on rolling out a Digital Twin of an Aluminium Smelter. Aluminium smelters are essentially refineries for extracting aluminum from aluminium oxide, separating the aluminium from oxygen through a chemical reaction. Through the new Centre, GE and IIT Madras will create a Digital Twin of a smelter. The Twin is a living digital model that will continuously generate new data and insights about the smelter that allows operators to run the smelters more efficiently. For the aluminium smelter industry, the net gains through such productivity enhancement are valued at between US$50 to 150 million annually. The Industrial Internet Centreof Excellence marks a milestone global collaboration by GE to drive digital industrial transformation that can bring quantum leaps in productivity, efficiency and reliability to the industrial sector. The digital industrial solutions are powered by Predix, the world’s first and only cloud-based operating system built exclusively for the industry. Azeez Mohammed, President & CEO, GE Power Services, MEA, said: “The agreement with IIT Madras underlines our commitment to building industry-academia linkages to support digital industrial transformation.” A mere 1 percent increase in productivity through the application of Industrial Internet solutions can contribute to a 20 percent potential increase in performance for its customers.

Möhlenhoff sells off trench heater segment Möhlenhoff has divested itself of its trench heater segment. The company has sold the business unit to its longstanding Russian partner in order to focus more strongly on its core segments of drive technology and room-byroom temperature control. Based in Salzgitter, Germany, Möhlenhoff GmbH is a supplier of products and systems for the heating, ventilation and air conditioning industry. The company, a pioneer in the development of trench heaters, reacted with this decision to falling sales in recent years. The decline, which in 2015 amounted to more than 30 percent from the previous year, was caused in particular
by the political situation in Russia and Ukraine. As Möhlenhoff did not foresee an end to the crisis even in the long term, it decided to divest itself of its trench heater product segment. “Needless to say, it was hard to give up this well-established line of business, especially since our company owes its growth to the development of trench heaters. But with this sale we intend to focus more strongly on our core segments of drive technology and room-by-room temperature control for OEM customers,” explains CEO Frank Geburek. “In addition, we are sure that our longstanding Russian business partner will successfully continue our trench heater business and serve our customers well.” Möhlenhoff says that it will retain as many employees as possible from its trench heater business unit. The company will use the resources that have been freed to strengthen and expand its core business in the OEM domain.

Powermax45 becomes Hypertherm’s best selling Plasma System Hypertherm, a manufacturer of plasma, laser, and waterjet cutting systems, is marking a major milestone with the production of its 100,000th Powermax45 plasma cutting and gouging system. This milestone makes the Powermax45 the bestselling plasma system of all time. It easily beats Hypertherm’s previous record set in 2007 when the company announced it had sold 50,000 Powermax600 units. Introduced in 2008, the popularity of the Powermax45 is due in large part to its incredible versatility. It is portable — weighing in at 16 kg — yet powerful enough to easily cut 12 mm thick metal, and sever 25 mm thick metal
if needed. The system is designed for handheld or mechanized cutting and gouging. The 100,000th system came off an assembly line in New Hampshire on Thursday morning. It was then outfitted with a special commemorative cover signed by dozens of Hypertherm Associate-owners, including company founder Dick Couch, and shipped to Savannah, Georgia for the Gases and Welding Distributors Association (GAWDA) Spring Management Conference, which began on Sunday April 3. Conference attendees, which include representatives from gas and welding distributors throughout North America, were given an
opportunity to bid on the system during a silent auction that concluded late afternoon on April 4. The winning bid was made by Dave Walker, treasurer at GAWDA who offered $2,525 for the system. Proceeds from the auction will be donated to the GAWDA Gives Back, which provides funding to in-need nonprofit organizations in the city of the GAWDA Annual Convention.

3D Metal Printing forum to discuss latest trends
Additive Manufacturing (AM), also known as 3D Printing, has come so far in recent years that it is now possible to print high-quality parts and components from a variety of metals. The latest developments in these technologies will be discussed in the new “3D Metal Printing” trade forum at Rapid. Tech, the international trade show and conference for Additive Manufacturing, which takes place from 14 to 16 June 2016 in Erfurt. Various applications in fields such as aviation and medical engineering illustrate that Additive Manufacturing processes offer completely new levels regarding product design, efficiency, speed and flexibility in the production of series parts. It is therefore hardly surprising that growing numbers of companies are investigating the industrial use of AM technologies. However, standards in series production are significantly more rigorous than in prototyping. “IT integration in product life cycle management (PLM), continuous processes from concept to finished component and reproducibility are fundamental prerequi-

sites for industrialisation,” explains Helmut Zeyn, Business Development Additive Manufacturing at Siemens Industry Software GmbH. The AM expert will discuss these challenges in his keynote lecture on the first day of this year’s Rapid.Tech conference. The different trade forums will start after the keynote presentation. In the inaugural “3D Metal Printing” trade forum, the introductory talk by Jannis Kranz of Materialise will examine the potential for producing metal components, including parts with hollow, lattice or protruding structures. The conference will include the trade forums “Additive Contract Manufacturing”, “Electronic Engineering” and “Automotive Industry” for the first time.

TaeguTec announces improved product
The machining of cast iron material has a tendency to generate deviation during operation due to the nature of the material. Moreover, the usage of ductile cast iron has grown as a trend and has become more pervasive as a material of choice in every industry. In order to respond to these two simultaneous machining conditions, TaeguTec has launched the improved TT7015 Life+ CVD grade which is geared towards turning operations. The advanced coating and substrate design of TT7015 Life+ enables improved wear resistance and toughness during the machining of parts made from cast iron. The improved grade provides higher stability on a wide range of applications and generates longer tool life due to the grade’s anti-chipping capability. The product is specifically geared towards general purpose machining of gray cast iron and ductile cast iron materials. Furthermore, the product minimizes unexpected insert
failure even under interrupted cutting conditions while offering excellent surface roughness during machining. During the testing phase of the TT7015 Life+, the new grade increased tool life by as much as 117 percent. While working on disk brakes made from gray cast iron, the TT7015 Life+ increased tool life by 100 percent while performing facing operations. On a front hub made from ductile cast iron, the new grade increased tool life by 100 percent. But the big eye opening test came with the internal roughing operation of a differential case cover made from ductile cast iron which increased tool life by an amazing 117 percent.

Renishaw opens new Additive Manufacturing Solutions Centre in India Renishaw, the global engineering technologies company, is opening a new Additive Manufacturing Solutions Centre on 15th June in Pune, India. The new facility will provide a secure development environment in which customers can expand their knowledge and confidence using additive manufacturing (AM) technology. The Solutions Centre will be equipped with the latest AM systems and staffed by knowledgeable engineers to allow fast access to deploying the technology, all at fixed predictable costs. Additive manufacturing, often referred to as metal 3D printing, is widely recognised as a transformational manufacturing technology that will impact on everything from components in aircraft engines and satellites, to dental restorations and surgery for facial reconstruction. Renishaw, which is the UK’s only supplier of metal AM machines, sees the new Indian centre as a cornerstone in its ambition to be a major contributor to the adoption of AM in the established and fast growing high technology Indian manufacturing sector. Rhydian Pountney, Renishaw’s Director responsible for Indian Sales and Marketing Operations mentions, “We are delighted to be opening the first Solutions
Centre in India. The thrust of the additive manufacturing centres is to create a platform on which to work in close partnership with our customers to help them realise the benefits of AM in their products and manufacturing processes.” “Renishaw’s vision is to make AM a mainstream manufacturing technology, used in series production of high performance parts for aerospace, medical, automotive, oil & gas, mould & die and consumer products. The technology will enable companies to design and make innovative products with spectacular gains in performance and efficiency,” says Clive Martell, Head of Global Additive Manufacturing. When adopting any disruptive new manufacturing technology, companies will go through a rigorous assessment process to understand the potential benefits, and to prove the reliability and capability of the production process. The investment in time, resources and equipment to achieve this can be significant. Renishaw Solutions Centres will lower this entry barrier by providing cost-effective access to machinery, facilities and AM expertise. Solutions Centres will provide a confidential development environment in which firms can
explore the benefits that AM can bring to their products, and quickly build their knowledge and confidence in AM as a production technology. Marc Saunders, Director – Global Solutions Centres comments, “Whilst AM can create complex geometries in a single process step, some level of finishing is generally required to produce functional products. Renishaw’s knowledge of metrology, machining and finishing processes can help customers to develop an integrated manufacturing solution for their innovative new product.” Whilst the new Pune Solutions Centre highlights Renishaw’s continuing investment in the development, manufacture and application of AM technologies, it also maintains the company’s long term commitment to the Indian market. It will sit alongside Renishaw’s existing key strategic additive manufacturing development locations in the UK, USA, Canada, Germany & China, with additional centres also planned for other key markets.

GOAL SETTING
The
ROAD MAP to success
I
f success and achievement is the end of a fruitful journey, then goal setting becomes the road map to help the professional traveller. In 1960, Professor Edwin Locke proposed the connection between motivation and goal setting and went on to establish an emphatic congruence between both of them. He said that if one defines a specific goal, the inner impetus to achieve that goal is more than ever available to the individual or team which takes on the task of ‘reaching’ the goal. Goal setting involves the development of an action plan designed to motivate and guide a person or group toward a goal. Goal setting can be guided by goal-setting criteria or rules, such as SMART criteria. Goal setting is a major component of personal-development, management and engineering project actualisation. Goals should be a by-runner of a Vision statement and the driving force for the Mission strategy. It should be dictated by objectives and at every stage should be quantified through metrics and measures of accomplishment so that one can assess if one is moving in a planned direction. SMART is an acronym commonly used in marketing parlance. It stands for Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Realistic and Timed objectives. Interestingly, each of these alphabets also stands for five nodal qualities which should be inherent to the character of the team or the individual marketing professional. Namely, these qualities would be Strategic, Methodical, Adventurous, Rational and Tenacious.
Marketing Blueprint In Guerrilla Marketing in 30 Days,Jay Conrad Levinson, and guerrilla marketing expert, Al Lautenslager offer a dynamic marketing blueprint to help entrepreneurs attract more customers and maximize profits. In order to set realistic marketing goals that would help achieve sustainable success in business. Setting
JUNE 2016 | www.engrreview.com
of these goals would crystallise the end objective, thus helping the goal-setter to generate a realistic methodology to gravitate towards the goal. Marketing goals should fit into and support the overall business goals. Just like any other goal, marketing goals should be measurable, specific and realistic so that the process can be quantified in modular manner. The goals are the building blocks of a viable marketing plan and may be considered as the starting- point of the plan. The first component of the execution is envisioning the goals having a crystal clear vision of what would be accomplished during the current year and each subsequent year, with great attention to detail. Every business is pivoted on the fulcrum of a ‘Vision’ which is the guiding light of activity undertaken in every sphere of the business. If the ‘Mission’ of activity is productive and serves to move towards the goal in a focussed manner, the ‘Vision’ of the business which is initially virtual, would then become actual. In creating a marketing plan, it is important to force oneself to focus on the specific goals one want the marketing to achieve and on the outcome, the marketing plan also states actions to achieve those goals. A marketing goal can be a big number, such as a certain year-end revenue figure. It might be a smaller number over a shorter period of time, such as four new clients per month. Goals, although specific and measurable, can be a simple statement of a company’s culture or attitude: to be number one in customer satisfaction, in a particular industry. Marketing goals can also be quantitative translations that fit with the company’s financial objectives, stated in marketing terms such as to increase.
By Dr. Jyoti Vora The Five Aspects In the case of engineering project management, the process of goal-setting guides the project from the initial stages to the final stage. When engineering projects are conceptualised, then the fundamental aspects include statement of the project, scope of the project and above all the project process. The entire purview of the project management relates to a continuous exercise of goal setting. One can easily break up the entire enterprise into five aspects namely, Initiating, Planning, Executing or Actualising, Monitoring and Moderating and Conclusion. The criticality is to set short-term goals for each module and a long-term goal for the entire project to achieve success. Interestingly, this allows flexibility and scope for change and innovation as one gets the project underway. Productivity, efficiency, scheduling, logistics and keeping up with deadlines can all be assessed by the engineering team as well as the individual using this approach. The overall aspects under consideration for any endeavour would be costs, scope, time, quality and safety. If specific goals are realistically set, the spiritual, emotional, psychological and mental planes of the team and the individual stand to be considerably enhanced, since there is a very deep and definitive link between human nature and goal setting.

MAINTENANCE
Introduction to
WIRE ROPE lubrication
By Shatul Shah, Director, Centraline Lubrotech Engineers Pvt. Ltd. The reason for frequent replacing of wire rope is lack of maintenance due to which they get damaged or corroded. If the wire ropes are regularly cleaned and lubricated their life can be increased very significantly.
W
ire ropes are extensively used in many industries like Mining, Shipping, Construction, Iron and Steel, Material Handling, etc. In many of these equipment, the cost of the wire rope forms a considerable proportion of the total cost of the equipment. Although the wire ropes cost as much as any other capital equipment like machines, etc., it has been found that the life of the wire rope is not even a quarter of the life of others. The wire ropes are replaced frequently as if they form a part of consumable stores. Very few engineers consider the wire rope also as a capital equipment and that with proper care and maintenance their life can be extended considerably to be on par with any other capital equipment.
Maintenance a must The reason for frequent replacing of wire rope is lack of maintenance due to which they get damaged or corroded. If the wire ropes are regularly cleaned and lubricated their life can be increased very significantly. Wire ropes and cables used for hoisting and cableways consist of wire strands twisted around a fiber core. The purpose of the latter is to increase flexibility and to provide
JUNE 2016 | www.engrreview.com
a reservoir for lubricant applied during the manufacturing process. When cables bend in a passing over sheaves or pulleys, there is friction between various strands of wire. Unless a lubricant is present, wear will be rapid. There are two distinct phases of lubrication, one of which is application of lubricant during the manufacturing process and the other lubrication in actual service. The purpose of applying lubricant during manufacturing is to protect the core against drying out and deteriorating and to provide lubrication to the internal wire strands when rope is in service. It is now quite generally conceded that the core does not retain the lubricant applied during manufacture throughout its service life, nor does it take up from subsequent applications in service any appreciable amount of lubricant. Once the supply of lubricant originally present in the core is depleted, it is necessary to depend entirely on external application if wear of strands is to be minimized. Hence, application of suitable lubricant during the operation of the rope becomes absolutely essential to ensure a long life and efficient performances from the wire ropes. External application of lubricant is generally called dressing of the wire ropes.
TECH TRENDS 75
This dressing operation of the wire rope is certainly of benefit even if considered only from the aspect of external and internal corrosion of wires of the rope. The steel wire of the wire rope gets corroded when exposed to outdoor working. Application of lubricant externally gives these wires protection against corrosion. All manufacturers of wire ropes recommend application of service lubricant as dressing for all categories of hazards in the duties of wire ropes such as corrosion, deterioration, abrasive deterioration, fatigue friction and even for standing ropes used as guy wires.
Equipment for lubrication One of the main reasons for absence of proper maintenance of the wire ropes is the lack of suitable equipment required to force the lubricant under pressure between the strands of the wire rope. Mere application of lubricant like grease or oil by hand is not very effective because of high resistance to penetration inside the wire rope. Availability of lubricating equipment like CENTRALINE-VIPER, makes the job of lubricating wire ropes very easy and very effective. It is very easy because the CENTRALINE-VIPER unit can be clamped on every
wire rope in any position and while the rope is being lubricated by the CENTRALINE-VIPER machine or the equipment can be working normally. Hence except for the short time taken to fit CENTRALINE-VIPER unit on a wire rope, there is no downtime of the equipment for lubrication. It is very efficient because the lubricant is injected under pneumatic pressure and this helps in the penetration of the lubricant inside the ropes. By the use of efficient seals with matched scraper plates there is no wasteful carry-over of excess lubricant on the rope.

KASTO presents interesting
ALTERNATIVE FOR STORAGE The automatic version organises storage, restacking and removal tasks, thus making the entire work process extremely efficient
R
ational storage, order picking and processing of profiles, tubes and beams often plays an important role in steel trading companies and metal processing centres. Here, traditional floor storage has distinct disadvantages with regard to speed and storage density, while on the other hand fully automatic storage systems are expensive to buy and are simply too big for many users. With the UNIBLOC stacking cradle system, saw and storage specialists KASTO therefore have an interesting alternative in their range for all storage needs when low to medium access frequencies are required. The UNIBLOC system stores tubes, bars, steel beams and other bar stock on sturdy, precision-welded cradle pairs. These have a work-
ing load of up to six tonnes and can be stacked on top of one another, making better use of the available space. The material is handled by means of a spreader beam with patented gripper arms, which transports and restacks up to three layers at the same time, depending on the model. This considerably accelerates turnover in the warehouse and reduces access times. The spreader beam can be moved manually by means of a stacker, automatically by means of a gantry crane or overhead crane, or by means of a magnetic lift.
No need of electrical power No electrical power is required for the mechanical operation of the gripper arms. This makes

the UNIBLOC system extremely energy efficient. The stacking cradle system is easy and safe to operate â&#x20AC;&#x201C; for example, indicator lamps show when the stacking cradles are reliably detected. This makes the job easier and ensures economic restacking. The fold-in grippers can even remove laterally stored materials from adjacent pairs of cradles without difficulty.
The advantage of automatic version of the system The automatic version of the UNIBLOC storage system has a further advantage. With the KASTO Inventory Control Computer, the system incorporates software which automatically manages materials and storage locations. It also organises storage, restacking and removal tasks, thus making the entire work process more efficient. Thanks to continuous inventory management, the operator is able to monitor stocks at all times and, if necessary, the organisation of the store can be optimised without the need for personnel, for example at night. Bars are managed individually to avoid unnecessary waste, thus reducing material costs. Manual UNIBLOC systems can also be retrofitted for automatic operation.

The power of W
hen we say power tool, an idea comes in our minds about a tool which uses some power to perform some activity. The power is of some form but necessarily not muscle power. It may be electric, pneumatic, natural power such as wind, hydro, etc. Power tools find use in industries, in the garden, in home tasks such as By Ashok Kumar
POWER TOOLS cleaning, around the house for the purpose of drilling, cutting, etc. There is a wide range of 350+ tools including cordless screw drivers, drill machines, impact wrenches, rotary hammers, surveying equipment, and range finders. Power tools are either stationary or movable. Movable tools are generally hand held. Hence, movable/portable tools possess low power and weight but they are convenient to operate but safety aspects should be taken into consideration with utmost care while using them. The safety aspects include using tools with proper guard, earthing, etc. Stationary power tools however, often have advantages in speed and accuracy, and some stationary power tools can produce objects that cannot be made in any other way.
Safety First Accidents with power tools are quite common leading from minor injuries to major injuries such as bone fracture, etc. It is also on record that many times, accidents have resulted in fatalities. This happens as a result of overpowering by powerful drill, grinding wheel, hacksaw, etc. We cannot overlook such dangers while using power tools. Accidents take place as safety aspects are overlooked while using them. It is not only the responsibility of users but manufacturers should also give proper attention to safety aspects while designing/manufacturing power tools. This is why impact drivers are so popular and are favoured in many high torque scenarios. There is competition among manufacturers of power tools having higher and higher torques. At the same time, it is essential to provide enough safety features to reduce accident risks

with brushes has been commonly used uptil now. Speed of these motors is about 10-20% more when operated on DC. These motors produce more torque also on DC. Now we have tools which use brushless motors. These motors allow the tool to be smaller in size, without compromising on power. This motor delivers up to 27% more torque, 25% more power, 30% faster screw driving and works more energy-efficiently with a longer lifetime than conventional motors. A smooth and controlled performance in these power tools is obtained through the kickback stop feature. An integrated sensor detects sudden jamming, which can be caused by tilting in metal or a change in substance and cause the tool to kick. The integrated sensor stops the motor immediately to prevent potential accidents caused by the user being thrown off balance.
New Launches
in power tools. To think, the torque in drills is higher than the torque of impact drivers of only a few years ago. Major brands have been competing over who gets to say that they have the most powerful drill or any other power tool. Several brands are now boasting about how their most powerful drills deliver well over 1,000 in-lbs of torque, previously impact driver- only territory in tools of this size.The torque levels are already so high that at full power even the additional side handle is not enough to control a drill that binds without really bracing your body. So at what point are we going to say that we have had enough, that we have reached the limit of what is safe or necessary, that we are happy with what we have, and that we don’t
need any more torque? Wouldn’t it be a better option for users to offload their high torque needs to their impact driver? At this point, manufacturers should be developing auger bits and hole saws that are designed to work with impact drivers. And if the 1/4” quick-connect chuck is not strong enough for such bits, maybe it is time for manufacturers to move away from them, or to adopt a dual chuck system like what is found in the Bosch Socket-Ready impacts.
Latest Developments The latest development is availability of cordless drills. The power to operate such drills is provided by batteries. The torque requirement is most important considerations in cordless drills as it decides the battery capacity. As we have come to expect from cordless tool manufacturers, with each new flagship drill model that comes out, we want a tool with more torque than what the previous model had. My question is, do we really need more torque or are we just after bragging rights for the highest number. Universal motor, which can operate on AC as well as DC,
With Dewalt having launched next-generation compact brushless drills, it’s probably a matter of time before they upgrade their premium 3-speed drills as well. And if so, will they take the belt? In regard to runtime, higher capacity 4.0Ah, 5.0Ah, and even 6.0Ah packs have become the norm. For more compact drills, 2.5Ah is the sweet spot right now. Brushless motors, with their higher efficiency, squeeze runtime to its very limits.What we’ve noticed is that brands have hit a ceiling. How much more torque can a drill/driver possibly deliver before it starts being ridiculous? Individual battery cells seem to be topping out at 3.0Ah right now, although there’s room for manufacturers to improve upon the maximum continuous current rating. We wouldn’t expect to see same size battery packs with 7.0Ah or greater capacities anytime soon. As run time on single charge increases, the battery capacity also increases. It has been observed that Lithium-ion batteries provide optimum power with maximum endurance. It is achieved by managing the interaction between the Lithium-ion battery, motor and gears, creating the perfect conditions for the tool to continuously perform with outstanding efficiency. Up to 800 screws are possible with a single battery charge, preventing you from ever having to leave a task unfinished. M/s Bosch have started manufacturing power tools near Chennai using latest technology. The price of these power tools is less than the imported tools. Their aim is to increase market share from 10% to 25% in the near future.

The vision of
INDUSTRY 4.0
Industry 4.0 is a collective term embracing contemporary automation, data exchange, and manufacturing technologies
I
ndustry 4.0 facilitates the vision and execution of a “Smart Factory” where cyber-physical systems monitor physical processes, create a virtual copy of the physical world, and make decentralized decisions. Over the Internet of Things, cyber-physical systems communicate and cooperate with each other and with humans in real time. Via the Internet of Services, both internal and cross-organizational services are offered and utilized by participants of the value chain.
The objective The aim of Industry 4.0 is to improve the competitiveness of a company with the aid of technology. Companies need to be efficient and able to make decisions in the shortest time possible. Every second of a machine not in use is money wasted. With that said, nor should it be using all available machine capacity if managers aren´t sure that it is profitable. In the end, all actions must be measured so one can understand the effect they will have on the Income Statement.
The strategy to move towards Industry 4.0 So how do companies move towards Industry 4.0? The answer is simple: Digitally model the factory. To do so companies need to explicitly define the manufacturing processes, choose key operational indicators and define how they are to be achieved. Managers then have to house these processes and indicators within a management system that allows them to view their status and to take operational decisions and steps to improve. Once processes have been specified one must then incorporate intelligence to digitally model them for contin-

uous improvement. It needs the support of a production management system that is well established in a single software application or through an integration of several pieces of software that cooperate with each other. Managers also need to establish at what stage of the process they need to get information and of what type. Knowing accurate information will allow them to make the right decisions. Industry 4.0 integrators will then design the tools to get the right information, at the right time to make the right decisions. Once digitally modeled, a company will be able to collect relevant information, achieve real-time data capture, and measure what is actually going on in its plant. It can then extract behavior patterns and efficiency analyses for its factory. From thereon, knowing what the key business factors are, a company will be able to assess how it is being affected by processes and results collected during the analysis. With these analyses, based on real data taken directly from the operation, it can flesh out improvements in different areas. All this brings a number of truly significant benefits: manual actions are simplified, the margin for error is reduced, and automating the running of processes and decision making becomes more intuitive. Once managers have managed to get an advanced control of the plant, they will be able to simulate what might happen if they make changes. They will be able to make decisions taking into account the possible effect that manufacturing models, generated from the current factory set-up, predict for them.

75% ENERGY SAVINGS for Tech Folien Emerson official partner RJW helped Tech Folien improve its energy efficiency
B
usinesses consider options ranging from simply adopting best practice in terms of switching off energy sources when not required, to making significant changes to machinery. Maintenance personnel are often the individuals tasked with making the savings. However these teams often come up against the issue of obsolescence, which can make it extremely challenging to find new efficiency opportunities. When Tech Folien Ltd, based in Liverpool, UK, was faced with this very issue, the company turned to Emerson official partner RJW, who designed and installed a solution which delivered energy savings of over 75%. Tech Folien is a specialist producer of polycarbonate, polypropylene and other co-extruded blown films, specifically for industries such as packaging, automotive and construction.
Legacy contributes to inefficiencies The previous motor and drive solutions had been installed on the company’s extruding line for over 15 years. The challenge for maintenance personnel has been the sourcing of spares. Having been out of production for

a number of years, parts for the incumbent solution were becoming hard to find. It was also noted that from an energy consumption perspective, the existing solution was highly inefficient. As a result, Tech Folien decided it was time to renew and upgrade.
The solution: Once the company had specified its requirements, RJW was able to advise on the best solution. It was decided that the Unidrive M701 variable speed drive from Control Techniques and an energy efficient IE4 LSRPM motor from Leroy-Somer (both Emerson Industrial Automation group companies) would provide the optimum solution. Installed in a cabinet away from the line, the Unidrive M701 sets the speed control parameters of the motor, which itself is installed close to the line in the space vacated by the obsolete combination. The control parameters can be easily programmed via a set of on-board drive macros. When it came to the installation of the motor, RJW’S engineering expertise and comprehensive support were vital as the solution had to fit in to the same space occupied by the old product. A custom base plate was machine engineered by RJW for the motor to drop onto. This matched the old footprint, which was critical as installation space was very limited. Tech Folien had the old solution independently verified by a firm of energy consultants, who in turn also measured the new solution once installation was completed. The difference in energy usage

NORD drives provide
BOOST for in-house paint shop At the NORD DRIVESYSTEMS headquarters, the power, functionality, and intelligence of NORD products are used to the company’s own advantage across the factory floor, with geared motors and drive electronics handling various applications
JUNE 2016 | www.engrreview.com
T
he new surface coating facility at the NORD DRIVESYSTEMS headquarters in Bargteheide, Germany, has twice the size of the previous paint shop. New paint booths, an automated high-bay warehouse for paint cure, and packing stations together occupy 1,400 m². An intelligent control system has, on average, halved the lead times for paint jobs. Any drive can be painted and shipped within two hours after assembly.
Paint line with a fast lane NORD configures each drive system to order, drawing almost exclusively on components manufactured in-house. Application-specific coatings are part of this process. Fast processing of urgent orders has now become much easier. Previously, geared motors were routinely returned to the end of the queue once the first coat had been applied. The new conveyor system enables completely flexible routing: after curing, high-priority products can jump the queue and immediately get their next paint coat. Intelligent sorting algorithms also ensure that paint jobs with equal priority are optimally grouped by coating systems and shades. This has reduced wastage and setup times. In addition, state-of-the-art filter systems in the paint booths limit pollution to a minimum. The
Three out of four available paint booths are now regularly used, up from two before the recent extension.
packing stations also draw on the smart sorting capabilities of the conveying systems: each packing station can be designated to handle a particular mode of shipment.
The right drive for each and every task More than 100 drives take over various tasks in the new facility – NORD drive technology powers conveyors, hoists, exhaust ventilation and cooling fan systems. Drawing on its own modular drive program, NORD has configured optimal solutions for each of the various requirements. Both highly efficient helical bevel gear units and worm gearboxes with very high gear ratios are used. Depending on the performance and function requirements, the motors are controlled by different frequency inverter models.
Ventilation systems Four fans with a 22,000 m³/h circulation capacity ensure proper air exchange in the paint booths. The fan drives are equipped with 22 kW distributed drives from the SK 200E frequency inverter series. The control solution enables standby mode and ensures adequate compensation of filter pollution by regulating the motor speed based on the measured air

Since the inverters are installed on the roof along with the ventilation units, they are designed for IP66 ingress protection.
Overhead conveyor
Paint jobs can be handled more efficiently and faster.
The NORD motors and gear units passing through this facility often weigh several hundred kilograms. Robust hardware is therefore required. The overhead conveyor is operated at a maximum speed of 10 m/min. It is equipped with over 100 smooth-running worm geared motors. Some parts of the facility are classified hazardous areas (Ex zone 2). The 14 drives installed within them are controlled by SK 500E series cabinet-installed inverters. All other drives feature a motor-mounted SK 180E type inverter. Designed to achieve a great price/ performance ratio while offering a full complement of efficiency functions, the SK 180E supports motor outputs from 0.25 to 2.2 kW to address all simple handling tasks in horizontal applications. A technology box installed with the inverter adds a Profibus interface as well as various sensor and pneumatic interfaces for transmission of position data and controlling switches. The integrated drive configuration capability as well as the consistent use of plug connectors was instrumental in minimizing the drive installation effort in the extensive
facility. The AC vector drives have a separate 24 V control voltage supply and can therefore be accessed via Profibus even when the 400 V power supply is switched off.
Hoist technology The facility includes a high-bay storage as a drying room. An automated storage and retrieval unit enables flexible access to all drive components. Each drive unit can be retrieved via its individual designation and automatically transported to a paint booth with the overhead conveyor. The automated storage and retrieval unit is equipped with powerful helical bevel geared motors for hoisting and driving. The telescopic jib that picks up the payload is extended by means of a light-weight, compact aluminum helical inline geared motor. NORD has implemented position control loops for the hoisting and driving axes. That is, type SK 545E frequency inverters simultaneously process absolute position data and the signal of an incremental motor encoder. They then autonomously adjust the position according to the set value specified by the automated storage and retrieval unit’s PLC and report back the reached position to the PLC. The drive electronics control speed and gentle acceleration and braking (S ramps). In this application, Profinet interfaces were integrated for communication with the PLC.

E4.1L from igus now available in new sizes
Optimum use of installation space, light weight and high stability – these are just some of the benefits of the E4.1L energy chain from igus, which is now available in new heights and widths from stock
C
ompared to the E4.1, weight can be reduced by 30 percent, with this light version, meaning that the chain is well suited to highly dynamic applications. It was developed especially for unsupported applications; long gliding travels are also possible with the e-chain. The E4.1L of the motion plastics specialist igus combines the strengths of different series of chains from igus and also has a design that is very kind to all the surfaces in contact with the cables. “Rounded edges of the crossbars and separators of the chain ensure a long service life of hoses and cables,” explains Harald Nehring, authorised representative for e-chain systems at igus. “You can therefore call E4.1L an energy
chain in which the moving cables feel at ease.” In addition to the rounded surfaces that come in contact with cables, gridding and positioning scales are used for the best possible separation of the chain. Along with the easy assembly and high stability it displays its strengths especially in fast unsupported applications, such as in automation or in machine tools.
Technical tricks for design freedom The simple snap-open mechanism of the crossbars in the outer and inner radius ensures a quick filling of the e-chain. The captive crossbars, which can be opened with a screwdriver, open by 115 degrees and latch into final position. If necessary, they can even be removed
Due to the modular design, the E4.1L energy chain can be adapted to any specific application. (Source: igus GmbH)

completely, placed again and closed by simply pressing in. The patented positive-fit tongue and groove of the chain links and the double stop dogs with large stop surfaces that allow a high degree of stability were carried over from the heavy duty E4.1 chain. Here a ‘brake’ also ensures a lower rolling noise and a very smooth chain travel. Due to the variable mounting of the outer links, the chain can be installed either with or without camber. This is a decisive advantage especially in limited installation space, such as in machine tools.
Perhaps the best e-chain in the world Compared to E4.1, the application-oriented design of the E4.1 L could save so much mass that the chain is about 30 percent lighter. This brings an additional advantage: “In this way, users save not only a lot of drive power,” says Harald Nehring. “It can also accommodate more hoses and cables in a given space envelope – all these advantages perhaps make the E4.1L the best e-chain in the world.” The energy chain is now available from stock in more interior heights between 31 and 64 millimetres and new widths, as well as fully enclosed options for the protection against chips. As for the open energy chain, igus also has an ESD version and even a high-temperature option for the enclosed energy tube. For more information Web: www.igus.de

Hengstler ACURO AX65 – A compact explosion-proof absolute
ENCODER A
mong numerous attributes, international explosion-proof certification (both ATEX and IECEx for mining, gas, dust) makes the AX65 ideal for global markets that include oil and gas platforms, mines and chemical plants to list but a few. Moreover, the design team at Hengstler has also ensured the AX65 is equally adept in environments subject to constant salt water exposure (thanks to the use of a marine-grade stainless steel housing), while shock resistance of 2000 m/s² and axial/ radial shaft load capability of 300 N brings into a range a whole host of applications such as enamelling production line equipment, bottling machines, mixers and silo works, for example.
Subject to extensive trials Despite its size, there is almost no compromise on performance with the AX65. The unit has been subjected to extensive trials at selected customer sites, particularly those suffering previous encoder failures due to a lack of robustness. Typical customer test applications included providing accurate and reliable position feedback in cranes, winches and other types of materials handling equipment deployed on both offshore and onshore oil drilling equipment.

Users can choose from SSI or CANopen interface options
Importantly, the encoder is able to function in ambient temperatures down to -40°C.
Resistant to shock and vibration No issues of insufficient robustness were reported with the AX65 encoder over the course of the three-year trials. As the decoder has no disc (scanning takes place magnetically), the AX65 is particularly resistant to shock (200 G) and vibration (30 G). The use of magnetic technology for both the single-turn scan and the encoder’s new electronic multi-turn, makes the AX65 extremely reliable in harsh operation environments. The new multi-turn is completely self-sufficient (no battery) and is devoid of contact parts and gears to ensure zero wear and long operating life. Indeed, low TCO is a particular feature of the AX65. For instance, not only can the encoder be installed quickly and easily due to its flexible, quick-connect terminal system, but in the event of servicing, the entire encoder can be replaced separately from the cable. This represents a significant advantage since many platforms use cables of 40m in length or more. Such cables are heavy and cumbersome, and must be laid in ducts. Replacing both the cable and the encoder can therefore be extremely challenging and costly if they cannot be exchanged individually.
The AX65 is differentiated by its compact dimensions
Just two screws Another ease-of-maintenance design innovation is the use of just two screws for the terminal box of this IP66/IP67 rated device. Hengstler is aware than many comparable encoders use six or even eight screws, while insufficient corrosion protection makes such units very difficult to uninstall. Instead, special agglutinated screws are deployed on the AX65 to protect against dust, water and corrosion. Further value-added design innovations include a shaft load rating that reduces the need for load modules, and a choice of SSI or CANopen interface, which can save wiring costs by allowing a ring network configuration Ultimately, no matter how demanding or challenging the application, the compact and cost effective AX65 brings a guarantee of safety and reliability that represents a step-change in the selection, deployment and servicing of explosion-proof encoders.

MAGNETIC FIELD instead of feed rollers tecodrive is developing a revolutionary process for material feed applications with the help of servo drives from Kollmorgen
N
o terminals or rolling, but really high speeds combined with low operating costs: these few words pretty much encapsulate the benefits of the feed device from tecodrive. tecodrive is a successful “spin-off” from the Institut für Umformtechnik und Umformmaschinen (Institute for Forming Technology and Forming Machines) at Leibniz Universität Hannover (Leibniz University, Hanover). The lighting experts at TriluX in Arnsberg punch reflector plates for high-end lighting systems out of thin aluminum. Previously, the punch worked with a conventional feed roller at a rate of 200 strokes per minute. A higher cycle rate was not possible. The limiting factor was not the actual punch, however, which could easily have managed double the rate. The problem was due to “the feed roller limiting productivity”, as Dr. Olaf Marthiens explains, a managing partner at tecodrive GmbH. The “speed limit” associated with feed roller applications can be explained in terms of physical causes, particularly mass inertia and the coefficient of friction between the strip and the rollers. The contact-free technology conveys material into systems really smoothly and at very high speeds, without any transverse forces and without any kinks forming in the strip.
No torsion or slipping • tecodrive GmbH from Garbsen has named its invention “fleXfeed” – and is breaking revolutionary new ground in material feed applications used for metal processing. • Thanks to an ingenious magnetic field, “fleXfeed” works on a completely contact-free basis and is much faster than conventional feed rollers. • New solution based on the principle of linear direct drive technology
JUNE 2016 | www.engrreview.com
Anyone keen to reap the full benefits of the electromagnetic solution would do well to take a cursory look at how a feed roller works. This positions a strip of metal (rolled out from a coil) and feeds it at a given rate into a machine to be processed – for example, a system for deep drawing or punching. The two rollers must close in with each cycle, building up pressure on the workpiece and transporting it as they jam against it, before finally opening again (or releasing). “The higher the speed, the higher the pressure needs to be so the material does not slip,”
explains Marthiens. And this is precisely where feed rollers are at a disadvantage compared with the electromagnetic approach. The pressing force exerted on the material cannot simply be increased ad infinitum, or the metal will become deformed. There is also an increased risk that finely worked surfaces may become damaged. TriluX found that this effect was creating torsion. These days, the lighting manufacturer is using the “fleXfeed” from tecodrive – with astonishing results. The company has doubled its production rate. “Our mission at the start of the project was to reach 400 strokes a minute,” recalls Hans-Jörg Lindner, who is also a managing partner at tecodrive. Where does this performance come from? As with linear direct drive technology, the contact-free feed process also adopts the principle of magnetic attraction and repulsion. This explains why the device, at just short of 1 m long, contains two opposing stators.
Developing a new control process This is where tecodrive relies on the great performance of Kollmorgen’s S700 servo drives – particularly in terms of speed and programmability. Maximum freedom is what Dr. Olaf Marthiens needed to implement a new type of control in the servo inverters, an alternative to field-oriented vector control (FOC). “I had to write a program that allows me to change both the phase angle of the current and the amplitude.” Using FOC would not really work for this
116 TECH TRENDS
The two stators generate a powerful magnetic field in the feed unit, which is controlled in turn by a Kollmorgen servo drive.
Not even 2 m long: “fleXfeed” speeds up the feeding of products in metal processing applications.

specific application, because the constantly changing magnetic behavior of the material being transported would make the control circuit unstable. FOC would react with great sensitivity to the so-called rotor constant. In a standard asynchronous motor, the rotor is mechanically unchanged and the rotor constant is only dependent on the temperature. By contrast, the “fleXfeed” unit is designed to position and feed the widest possible range of metal materials into a processing machine with real accuracy in highly dynamic applications. tecodrive has solved this problem by only having one current and position controller in this particular application. Field-oriented control no longer applies, because the S772 servo inverter is programmed to specify and fix the field. What’s remarkable is the speed of the control circuit, because tecodrive calculates the next set point directly from the actual position of the sheet metal within the magnetic field – and not via a control system. “We need there to be no delay whatsoever in order to ensure that positioning is accurate to 10 µm – even at a cycle rate of 4,000 strokes a minute.”
Unimagined productivity for the feed process
The fleXcontrol operator interface for the feed unit. Punching is made easier by inching the strip forwards and backwards within a restricted section of feed length.
JUNE 2016 | www.engrreview.com
tecodrive and Kollmorgen have managed to devise a feed method that achieves the kinds of figures that would never be possible with rollers – for one thing, because masses simply cannot be compensated for as quickly as this. By contrast, there is no mass with this feed method, because it only involves a magnetic field. As a result, the process is reduced – in simple terms – to just switching the current on and off, with mass playing no part. This ingenious principle delivers yet more benefits in practice.
To provide feedback regarding the actual position, tecodrive uses two highprecision and very light measuring wheels, which can also detect any potential slippage.
The “fleXfeed” is already being used with great success by a lighting manufacturer and a vehicle manufacturer.
Lower energy consumption Another aspect is currently grabbing the attention of companies active in and around the automotive sector too: the new development only needs a fraction of the energy used by a feed roller. “Although we need to use a Kollmorgen 35 kW servo drive to achieve the necessary magnetizing current, the effective power alone amounts to a mere 700 watts,” explains Dr. Olaf Marthiens. For Hans-Jörg Lindner, who manages the business with him, these are further benefits that make the case for abandoning the old methods of feeding materials. “At TriluX, we managed to combine two systems into one. We did this without compromising productivity, and still managed to save lots of space and greatly reduce tool costs.” VW at Hanover Stöcken has enjoyed similar positive experiences.

TORQUING SENSE about ship unloaders
An emerging technology that is increasingly being integrated into unloaders is wireless, non-contact digital torque monitoring figures. Unloaders need to run at optimum speed to minimise ship turnaround times, while also controlling the rate of delivery of materials to the dockside facilities. Real-time data from the unloaders is collected by having sensors monitoring the critical variables – in this case the torque on the drive shafts, the speed of the motors and the drive power – and fed back to the control system.
Advantages of wireless torque monitoring
A
ship at sea is earning its owners money; a ship in port is costing its owners money. Therefore, rapid loading and unloading are critical to the success of a shipping company and dockside technology continues to develop to provide ever more speed and efficiency Unloading dry bulk cargo from ships would be slow, laborious and potentially dangerous if it had to be done manually. But for many years the process has been automated and ship unloaders are a well-developed technology that work continuously to reliably and efficiently transfer grains, minerals and other dry bulk materials from ship to shore. Unloaders come in a number of different designs, each suited to different materials. The core technologies include bucket wheels, flighted vertical conveyors, augers, horizontal belt conveyors and pneumatic systems. The mechanical principles of each of these are self-explanatory, but it is essential that control and monitoring is maintained at all times to both ensure trouble-free operation and to calculate the weight of cargo being unloaded.
Wireless digital torque monitoring An emerging technology that is increasingly being integrated into unloaders is wireless, non-contact digital torque monitoring. This measures the work being done by the motors and drive shafts of the unloaders and the data is automatically and instantly converted into cargo weight
JUNE 2016 | www.engrreview.com
However, torque data can be hard to collect, with traditional technologies introducing as many problems as they solve. Because the shaft is rotating, wires attached to it would wind up and snap, so a special way of monitoring it is required. The usual solution is to use slip rings, but these are expensive, difficult to set up and far too delicate in use for dockside applications. Now, with over 20 years of research and development into digital non-contact torque monitoring, Sensor Technology UK Ltd is at the forefront of an important enabling technology. Mark Ingham, one of the company’s managers says: “Our TorqSense transducer is based on the patented technology of measuring the resonant frequency change of surface acoustic waves (SAWs) generated by rotating shafts. It’s a proven technology that has solved torque measuring challenges in a host of industries.” TorqSense torque sensors use two tiny SAW detectors made of ceramic piezoelectric material containing frequency resonating combs. These are glued onto the drive shaft at 90 degrees to one another. As the torque in the rotating shaft increases one comb expands and the other contracts proportionally to the torque being applied. In effect, the combs act similarly to strain gauges, but measure changes in resonant frequency. An adjacent pickup emits radio waves towards the SAWs, which are then reflected back. The change in frequency of the reflected waves identifies the current torque.

And once you are collecting torque data this way, you are well on the way to sophisticated real-time control of complex processes,” says Mark. Born out of the need to solve a particular challenge in the automotive industry, TorqSense is now widely used throughout a range of industries including many liquid handling applications, in mixers, in the nuclear industry, for testing aerospace components and running drug trials. It is applicable to all sizes
of torque measurement tasks, from dispensing active pharmaceutical ingredients, through stirring industrial quantities of cook-chilled curries, to modelling storm and flood water flows. This innovative method of measuring torque is bringing distinct advantages to handling dry bulk products. A process that was once regarded as very difficult to monitor can now reap the same benefits as many other industrial processes, enabling operations to be optimised for the highest levels of productivity with the
lowest cost. Sensor Technology has also adapted the SAW technique for use with straight-line load monitoring, such as is required by cranes and hoists as they lift cargo to and from ships. This means that all cargo handling techniques used in any given situation can be monitored by the same system, which will lead to significant savings in management time and costs as two or more reports do not have to be integrated. Mark sums up: “The modern world requires rapid and efficient transportation of goods from continent to continent. As well as speed of handling, accurate records are also essential. TorqSense and its sister product LoadSense allow real time data to be collected, constantly updated and instantly converted into the critical information required for efficient logistics.”

ECOCLEAN
to exhibit at parts2clean A broad-based portfolio addressing virtually any cleaning task is presented by Dürr Ecoclean at this year’s parts2clean
A
t parts2clean, leading international trade fair for parts and surface cleaning, in Stuttgart, Durr Ecoclean will present a range of solutions that extends from aqueous and solvent based cleaning through ultrafine cleaning to tailor-made after-sales concepts. Moreover, there will again be ‘live’ exhibits of different cleaning systems – including the new EcoCCompact – at the company’s booth (D35, H5). The demands on part cleanliness, and hence on the cleaning system employed, vary with the degree of completion, the downstream process and the specific industry. For such highly diverse cleaning tasks ranging from preliminary or coarse cleaning through intermediate cleaning to fine and ultrafine cleaning, Dürr Ecoclean will be presenting matching solutions at this year’s parts2cean from 31 May – 2 June. Each of these technologies helps users make their part cleaning operations more reliable, cost-efficient and sustainable.
EcoCCompact – a successful predecessor : With its EcoCCompact, Dürr Ecoclean has optimized the successful predecessor model from the prior Compact 80C/P series. Operating under a full vacuum and equipped with two flood tanks as standard, this machine can clean and conserve parts with modified alcohols and non-halogenated hydrocarbons. Experiences and innovative technologies from other Dürr
JUNE 2016 | www.engrreview.com
Ecoclean systems have likewise found their way into the efficient EcoCCompact. The unit thus provides enhanced flexibility for different cleaning tasks. Versatile options open up a broad range of uses, from rapid degreasing to exacting cleaning operations conforming to cleanliness specifications. In addition, this model is optimally adaptable to specific user requirements, e.g., from preliminary through intermediate to final cleaning. To assist with such challenges, a third flood tank can be retrofitted. The machine’s design focus lies on a targeted reduction in per-unit costs combined with maximum cleaning efficiency. Moreover, the new EcoCCompact shines with its particularly space-saving modular design, easy operation, visual appeal and attractive price/performance ratio.
Extensive range to be exhibited : The extensive line-up of part cleaning systems relying on aqueous media will be represented by EcoCWave and EcoCCube models at the trade fair booth. The latter constitutes an ideal entry-level solution for users considering aqueous cleaning. This is due, on the one hand, to its small footprint of just 2100 x 1630 x 1855 mm (length x width x height) and low weight. The machine can thus be integrated easily and in minimum time into any manufacturing environment, apart from providing flexibility in
use. On the other hand, it attains its operating temperature quickly and energy-efficiently due to the optimized dimensions of two standard flood tanks.
Superior Design : The EcoCWave is built to clean even large quantities of parts at a rapid pace and with high reliability, in processes ranging from coarse to ultrafine cleaning. It owes this capability in part to the use of powerful pumps and large diameter piping, which ensure quick filling and draining of the work chamber. The round, upright tanks are flow-optimized to prevent chips and foreign matter from accumulating inside. This design translates into a higher cleaning quality and longer cleaning fluid life. In ultrafine cleaning tasks – e.g., in the optical industry, medical equipment manufacturing and other segments – the ultrasound cleaning systems marketed by UCM AG, a Dürr Ecoclean Group company, excel with a number of technical features which enable them to meet even exceptionally demanding cleaning standards repeatably and efficiently. The equipment manufacturer’s trade fair offering is rounded out by the “service island”. Here, experienced service staff advises customers on after-sales matters, tailor-made service concepts to boost plant availability, equipment revamps and adaptations designed to meet altered requirements.

T
he “multi-cavity” twin station machines of the hydraulic HYBLOW series was manufactured for the high-capacity production of milk containers for a Peruvian customer. For the range expansion, BEKUM delivered a HYBLOW 407 DL for a 12-fold production of 200 ml containers with an 860 mm mould width and a HYBLOW 607 DL for a 9-fold production of 1000 ml containers with a 1000 mm mould width.
New screw geometry
• New design allows a 20% increase in the output with improved service life and lower wear • Improved homogeneity of the compound without an additional, costly mixing component • Designed for the shortest cooling times and high piece counts
JUNE 2016 | www.engrreview.com
New screw geometry enabled the optimized processing of viscous HDPE with TiO2. The new design of grooved bushing, feeding zone and barrier geometry allows a 20% increase in the output with improved service life and lower wear due to the uniform load distribution over the entire screw length. This improves the homogeneity of the compound without an additional, costly mixing component.
Improving energy efficiency About 70 to 80% of the energy used in a blow moulding machine is consumed in melting and
cooling the plastic required for processing. The optimized extruder screw lowers the energy consumption required to melt the HDPE to a mere 200 Wh/kg. At the same time, the drive train of the extruder is also optimized so that the motor runs with the highest efficiency at a nearly optimal operating point.
Clear plus in performance In addition to the energy benefits, the machines also provide exceptional handling with trouble-free production start-up, uniform extrusion of the 9-fold and 12-fold parisons as well as reproducible article quality in terms of wall thickness distribution and weight. The aluminium moulds used by BEKUM are designed for the shortest cooling times and high piece counts. Using modern, high-speed and precision article measurement technology, an immediate feedback can be given to the processing engineers and the mould maker. The efficient organization of the interfaces between customer, mould maker and BEKUM made a decisive contribution to the success of the project in Peru.

Todo Impresión improves competitiveness using
HAAS VF-3 By buying the Haas VF-3 vertical machining centre, the company has been able to create a patented robot-loaded system for printing brand names and logos on stainless-steel beer barrels
M
anufacturing companies and OEMs sometimes get to a point in their growth and development where it makes sense to opt for independence from subcontract machinists. There are many reasons why, but the most common, perhaps, is that local suppliers simply do not give an appropriate or reliable level of service – slow deliveries, poor part quality, lack of capacity, or technical ability, for example. This was precisely the case with Todo Impresión, a specialist printing company based near Bareclona. The company relied on local subcontract companies to machine almost all of the main precision parts. The firm had a few manual mills, and it wanted to resolve this issue by having an in-house CNC capability.
Haas VF-3 comes to the rescue The firm then decided to buy the Haas VF-3, and was impressed with the delivery. Says
JUNE 2016 | www.engrreview.com
Rubén Rueda Ruiz, “We needed flexibility, reliability, and good quality – which we couldn’t always count on. We were spending too much time resolving supplier problems. We ordered the Haas, and it was delivered in a week! The support from the Haas Factory Outlet in Spain has been incredible.” The company uses a Haas VF-3 vertical machining centre to make a patented robot-loaded system for printing brand names and logos on stainless-steel beer barrels.“We’ve designed and developed a large-scale printing machine for a particular client – a well-known German brewing company. It uses two ABB robots – one to load a beer barrel, the other to unload it. Once loaded, the barrel is held in a custom-made rotating fixture, allowing the screen-printing heads to quickly and accurately mark the barrels with brand logos and text. The machine is 100 percent our design, and we intend to market it around the world. The Haas

Benefits • Improved competitiveness • Ability to machine more than 90 percent of all parts • Solid support • Ability to deliver quality products quickly
The Haas VF-3 is our very first CNC machine, and we have used it to design a large-scale printing machine - Rubén Rueda Ruiz
VF-3 is our very first CNC machine, although I’m an engineer with more than thirteen years of experience. We also invested in Mastercam®, which works very well with the Haas. I’ve had to learn how to use both, and I’m happy to say, it’s been a painless experience,” says Rubén Rueda Ruiz. The firm has been machining ST52 steel for the structural parts of the printing machine, and 6082 aluminium for many of the other parts, such as base plates to attach the barrel grippers to the robots. It also machines some PE and nylon parts, for the maintenance-free guide ways, for example. As the firm machines a wide range of different parts in different sizes, the Haas Wireless Intuitive Probing System (WIPS) has been very useful. “We can keep set-up times to a minimum, and since I’ve had to learn programming on the job, it’s been a huge help,” states Rubén Rueda Ruiz.
Improved competitiveness As a business, Todo Impresión has three priorities: service to customers, controlling part costs, and meeting delivery dates. Since it has bought the Haas and brought the machining in-house, the firm is confident that it can consistently achieve all the priorities. “We now machine more than 90 percent of all our parts. Some of them only just fit the VF-3; perhaps we should have bought a bigger one! We probably will, but in the meantime, I’m working the machine 12 hours a day until, at some point, we employ an operator to take over,” says Rubén Rueda Ruiz. Haas was recommended to the company by several local companies who already use Haas machines. The company took their advice, and is extremely happy that it made the right decision. Things are moving fast for the company, and now the company feels that it has the control, confidence, and independence that it needs.

Kennametal helps job shop
TRIPLE TOOL LIFE
A job shop in the Midwestern US State of Indiana has cut insert costs in half and tripled its tool life with Beyond Evolution grooving and cut-off tools from Kennametal
S
ince the day some ingenious machine tool engineer first mounted a metal tube on an engine lathe, machinists have been looking for a better way to cut off parts. From handground bits to high speed steel blades to indexable carbide inserts, cut-off tool technology has continued to improve over the years, increasing metal-cutting efficiency and lowering operational expenses along the way. One large step in that evolution came with the development over recent years of multi-purpose cut-off tools able to switch hit as grooving, turning, and profiling tools, giving manufacturing companies the ability to simplify setups and shorten production cycles, and in some cases keep fewer tools in the crib.
Searching for reduction in tooling costs One such company is EMC Precision, a family owned and operated precision machining job shop headquartered in Elyria, Ohio. Since 1925, EMC has provided prototype to production machining and value-added services to a range of industries including fluid management, hydraulic fluid & power, automotive, recreational, and other OEMs. Ian Dotson, manufacturing engineer at EMC’s Sheridan, Indiana facility says he was happy with the tool life and performance of his existing cut-off solution, and was only looking for a reduction in his tooling costs when he called his local Kennametal distributor, CCA Inc. The salesperson there introduced him to Kennametal’s Beyond
JUNE 2016 | www.engrreview.com
Evolution, a single-sided grooving and cut-off system with multidirectional turning capability, through the tool coolant, proprietary chip control, and “Triple V” secure seating geometry. Dotson admits he wasn’t too concerned about the bells and whistles, as long as the tool performed as well as what he was already using, and saved the company some money. He was pleased with the results. “We were using a 0.118 in. wide (3 mm) PVD-coated insert to cut off 0.75 in. diameter (19 mm) 4140 steel hydraulic actuators,” he says. “We swapped out the old tool for a Kennametal Beyond Evolution cut-off and kept the feeds and speeds the same. After several runs, we determined tool life was essentially identical, so from a performance perspective there was no difference, at least not on this job. But the Beyond Evolution inserts are dramatically less expensive, roughly 40 percent of what we were paying for our legacy tools. It was a clear win for us.”
Benefits • • • •
Dramatic improvement in performance Improved metal-cutting efficiency Lowered operational expenses Huge savings in costs as Beyond Evolution inserts are roughly 40 percent of what the firm was paying for its legacy tools
Triple time The next win came on a job Dotson was running on one of EMC’s Daewoo Lynx 220 CNC lathes, a transmission gear shaft made of 1-1/4 in. (32 mm) 8620 steel, and using a 0.236 in. wide tool (6 mm) to back turn a journal on the left side of the part prior to cut-off. In this application, insert cost was still a concern, but Dotson’s primary goal was tool life improvement. “The Daewoo isn’t equipped with high pressure cutting fluid, and the standard pump was unable to generate enough pressure for us to utilize coolant through the tool on our old cutoff system,” he explains. “Because of this, we’ve been stuck with flood coolant, and have always had some chip control issues as a result—the chip would roll back on itself and starve the cutting edge of coolant.” Despite the less than perfect cutting conditions, the Beyond Evolution performed beyond expectations. “We achieved very good results,” says Dotson. “This time we increased the cutting speed a bit, from 350 to 400 sfm, and bumped up the feed rates by about 30 percent. Even so, tool life increased threefold, to just over 2600 pieces per insert. I’m confident we could have cranked up the feeds and speeds even more, especially if we had plumbed the tool for coolant through, but there was no need. This operation supplies another machine, and that one was already running as fast as it could go. The big thing for us was getting more parts between tool changes, and that’s exactly what the Beyond Evolution did. It’s an excellent product at a very competitive price point.”

JUNE 2016 | www.engrreview.com
Ease of installation and maintenance – to minimise patient disruption - were critical factors in the selection and Installation-Ready™ systems proved fast, clean and safe.With no noxious fumes or flames to consider, the rapid joining grooved piping system provided a major advantage over other traditional joining methods such as welding. “In today’s healthcare facilities there is no time for downtime, especially when it comes to vital systems such as HVAC, plumbing and fire protection,” says Pankaj Soni, Victaulic Country Manager India.“As the pace of the healthcare construction industry continues to grow, there
is a necessity to look to building methods that make maintenance and facility expansion easier to implement, with minimum disruption to the peaceful healing environment.”
Common risks eliminated In recent years, timescales for construction and repair have become increasingly tight with patient needs at the forefront. Grooved piping system assembly requires no hotworks and eliminates many of the risks traditionally associated with joining pipe, and even allow healthcare or other activities to carry on unhampered in surrounding areas of a facility. For instance, work can continue safely with patients still in beds, and only the need to empty the most nearby wards.

ElMeasure’s Intelligent ACCL The power instability coupled with inefficient power distribution has created the need for backup power usually using a DG set. The manual switching of DG every time the utility supply fails leads to the disruption of key functions and causes damage to expensive equipment. To overcome this problem ElMeasure has introduced an Intelligent Automatic source change over with current Limiter (iACCL). The compact product is built with high precision microcontroller that offers automatic changeover between main supply and generator supply. iACCL allows supply from mains as long as the load current is below the programmed current. When the mains supply fails and stand by generator supply is on, it connects the DG power to each consumer in sequence & starts monitoring its load. Whenever the load current exceeds the allotment, power is automatically switched off for 10 seconds, and automatically restored. This cycle repeats for 5 times each time with double the time (20, 40, 80 & 160) and then enters into lockout
mode until it is ‘Reset’ manually. This helps to protect against over voltage from DG side. Its current limiting capabilities are ideally suited to the efficient utilization of the standby generators frequently used in multi-storied apartments, commercial complexes, etc.

Only HSS materials have the property of can with stand on heavy machine vibrations, interrupted cuts, inclination faces, and wavy faces, where as carbide Taps cannot work on these working conditions. ITM produces high quality of HSS Taps made out of from CNC machines like GT 77, Normac FT80 flute grinders etc.,. ITM geometries are unique with difference cutting angles with different flute forms for different machining applications. And also our taps are made out of imported steels. ITM is one of the prominent supplies in Indian market due to its quality and on time delivery. ITM is offering H&S M/c Taps, LS M/c Taps, Spiral and SPPT Taps in both HSS and HSS-Co grades. Only HSS Tools can operate at moderate speeds either at low or high speeds, these formulae cannot applicable for Carbide Tools. Carbide Tools will work at only recommended speeds and feeds. Hence HSS Tools are only solutions for conventional machines as well as CNC machines.
Centraline offers an unique Automatic Wire Rope Lubrication System that would benefit end-users and Wire Rope Manufacturers with considerable cost & time savings in Lubricating their Wire Ropes automatically. Manual lubrication of wire ropes via the drip, brush, spatula or rubber glove method has always been a difficult and time-consuming maintenance task. Typically messy asphaltic or ‘blackjack’ type products are employed which have coating abilities but very little lubrication or penetration properties. The Centraline Wire Rope Lubricator provides fast and effective one pass lubrication of wire ropes from 8mm to 67 mm in diameter at speeds up to 2,000 metres per hour. It eliminates the slow and labor-intensive task of manual lubricant application, at the same time achieving more thorough results by forcing quality lubricant under high pressure right through to the core of the wire rope. The Wire Rope Lubrication System Package comprises: High Strength Collar, Grease Lube Pump, Air regulator with PG & Air control valve, High pressure Lube delivery hose & QDC, High pressure lubricant control valve, Excess lubricant drain hose, Retaining ratchet straps & shackles, Carry strap for the collar, Robust aluminum storage case, etc.
The optional extras to be ordered separately are Highly durable polyurethane seals, Aluminum scrapers and Wire rope cleaner.
Following are some of the unique features and benefits: • • • • • •
No more manual greasing Stops corrosion / protects ropes Penetrates to the wire rope core Less waste and mess Fast and efficient High Pressure – Operates up to 6,000 PSI
Centraline WRL can be used with advantage in a plethora of industrial applications. Wharf Cranes, Ship Cranes, ROV Cables, Mine Winders, Mobile Cranes, Oil Well Platforms, Anchor Ropes, Deck Winches, Overhead Cranes and Ship Loaders.
