LMT Fette’s Precision Tools Bring Ideas To Life Using ANCA’s Igrind Software
From simulation to production, tool manufacturers rely on flexible and robust machines, with automation options to drive technology development. “The ANCA machines match the requirements for the tool types that we make,” says Uwe Kretzschmann, LMT Fette. “They have a high degree of flexibility due to the easy automated change of grinding wheel packs. They are very robust machines and are very suitable for technology development For these tool requirements, it is particularly important to use a production machine during the development process and during the production of the first prototypes.”

Doosan Announces the New DHF 8000ST Five-Axis Machining Center
Customers from two industry segments were influential in the development of the DHF 8000ST. The first was heavy equipment manufacturers (earthmovers, etc.) who machine large diameter gearboxes that require turning operations. The second group were companies, such as those found in the oil field industry, that also machine large diameter components. The nodding head spindle and direct-drive B-axis rotary table allow the DHF 8000ST to handle a complete range of machining and turning processes from roughing to finishing in a single setup. This ability to attack parts from all sides provides increased parts accuracy.

Exact Metrology Introduces PolyScan XL
Exact Metrology proudly represents PolyScan XL. Part of the Polyrix PolyScan™ Surround 3D Scanner family, these scanners are motionless by design during the inspection. Their unique calibration avoids the need for data alignment or sticker targets, and multiple baselines increase accuracy when measuring points. Surround Scanning is made possible by the huge amount of R&D that Polyrix placed on software development since 2005. The PolyScan Control Center (PCC) manages data acquisition from all scanning units, thus generating 3D models. Furthermore, PolyScan operation is made easier by the simple interface of the Automation Manager, or by 3rd party plug-ins (e.g. Polyworks Inspector™ Plug-in).
German Machine Tools of America (GMTA) proudly announces the signing of an agreement with Stiefelmayer GmbH (Denkendorf, Germany) to represent that company’s line of laser machines in North America. Stiefelmayer offers lasers for various cutting applications, including motor laminations, plus laser hardening.
The Stiefelmayer laser is particularly well adapted to cutting precision shapes in thin substrates, including mild steel, stainless, copper and brass. Motor laminations are a particular specialty, and this fact matches the drive to EV in the American auto industry.

Hypertherm Introduces Extreme Bevel Plasma Consumables for Its MAXPRO200 Air and Oxygen Plasma System
The consumables, designed for mechanized, robotic, and handheld cutting, have an aggressive pointed geometry so the plasma torch can tilt to an angle of up to 66.5 degrees. This makes the consumables ideal for a wide range of jobs including steep mechanized beveling, tube and pipe cutting, structural steel work, pressure vessel construction, and handheld cutting. In addition, it makes it easier for operators to see what they are cutting and gives them better access to beam flanges and areas with limited clearance for better cuts and fewer secondary operations.
