Automate 2015 - Help DE-STA-CO Celebrate 100 Years of Innovation at Automate
Booth will include new and historic products
AUBURN HILLS, Mich., March 16, 2015 -- DE-STA-CO will kick off its 100th anniversary celebration at Automate next week by looking back on the company's history, while also introducing innovative new products for OEMs and end-users. All Automate attendees are invited to stop by DE-STA-CO booth #632 at 1 p.m. on Tuesday, March 24, for refreshments, giveaways and entertainment in honor of the company's centennial. The Automate trade show takes place March 23-26 at McCormick Place North in Chicago.
"DE-STA-CO has a long history of innovation, which includes the invention and patent of the first manual toggle clamp," says Darren Greene, director, global marketing and business intelligence for DE-STA-CO. "Our Automate booth will feature historic DE-STA-CO products and literature, as well as a video retrospective showing how the company has grown to become an industry leader. And while it is nice to look back on our past, we have not stopped finding solutions for our customers. There will be several new products for attendees to see in action."
The DE-STA-CO booth will feature the latest parts developed for the Accelerate Collection of lightweight tooling, including new transfer press components, clamps and mounts. These new elements were created to provide customers with more options for increasing automated press room stamping line speed. Accelerate Collection parts can be used to build lightweight end effectors that can provide speed gains of up to 30 percent.
Two new CAMCO-brand E-Series indexers that are under development will be previewed at the show and programmed for demos. One, the new MDE medium-duty indexer, will be mounted on top of the other, a servo-driven HDE heavy-duty indexer, to show both products' capabilities at once. E-Series indexers are designed to move a variety of products and components at exact intervals to precise locations.
Other product demos in the DE-STA-CO booth will include the new Robohand G100 Series pneumatic parallel gripper and 82M-3E Series enclosed pneumatic power clamp.

Featured Product
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.
