Dover, OH: (August 29, 2019) Allied Machine & Engineering, a global manufacturer of holemaking and finishing cutting tools, releases their free mobile app, Solution Hub, available now for download on both the Apple Store and Google Play. The app is a fresh-faced expansion of the original Allied Machine app, now reimagined as a centralized "hub" of Allied product information and holemaking solutions. Solution Hub offers quick access to free online utilities, videos, tap drill charts, operation manuals, technical guides, and digital catalogs for drilling, boring, threading, reaming, roller-burnishing, and more. With its sleek design, customers get all the essential components of Allied Machine's website in a mobile-friendly layout for easier, on-the-go navigation.
Find product details, watch tool demos, and flip through Allied Machine's extensive lineup of holemaking solutions on the Solution Hub. Machine operators can find data on everything from shank options and diameter ranges for the 4TEX indexable carbide drill to NPT and Unified National tap drill charts. Handy resources also include a collection of Wohlhaupter operation manuals for the VarioBore, EK Grooving Head, Combi-Line, Alu-Line, and more. Flip through technical guides like Allied Machine's illustrated pocket reference for thread milling or look for speed and feed recommendations in their Recommended Cutting Data Guide too.
In addition to Allied Machine's product and application-based materials, the Solution Hub provides access to six free online utilities. Users can locate the right tool for both standard and unique holemaking/finishing applications with the Product Selector and Boring Insert Selector utilities. They can design, assemble, and save 2D drawings and 3D tool files with Wohlhaupter's Tool-Architect and Allied's ToolMD. Solution Hub includes Insta-Quote too which helps customers create their own custom tooling and generate a quote and drawing in minutes. Machine operators can also download the Insta-Code utility to generate, save, and transfer thread mill G-code programs easily between machining centers.
Solution Hub has a quick link to download the Machinist Tool app, a speedy distributor locator to find local Allied Machine tooling suppliers as well as upcoming events and company news --- all with just a few taps of a finger. Currently, Solution Hub is available in English, French, German, and Mexican-spanish.

FLIR Si1-LD - Industrial Acoustic Imaging Camera for Compressed Air Leak Detection
The FLIR Si1-LD is an easy-to-use acoustic imaging camera for locating and quantifying pressurized leaks in compressed air systems. This lightweight, one-handed camera is designed to help maintenance, manufacturing, and engineering professionals identify air leaks faster than with traditional methods. Built with a carefully constructed array of MEMS microphones for high sensitivity, the Si1-LD produces a precise acoustic image that visually displays ultrasonic information, even in loud, industrial environments. The acoustic image is overlaid in real time on a digital image, allowing you to accurately pinpoint the source of the sound, with onboard analytics which quantify the losses being incurred. The Si1-LD features a plugin that enables you to import acoustic images to FLIR Thermal Studio suite for offline editing, analysis, and advanced report creation. Field analysis and reporting can also be done using the FLIR Acoustic Camera Viewer cloud service. Transferring of images can be managed via memory stick or USB data cable. Through a regular maintenance routine, the FLIR Si1-LD can help facilities reduce their environmental impact and save money on utility bills.
