CRP Technology member ARTES 4.0

CRP Technology's cutting-edge AM technologies at the service of ARTES 4.0, the most innovative projects in the field of Advanced Robotics

CRP Technology participates as an affiliated member to ARTES 4.0 association (Advanced Robotics and enabling digital TEchnologies & Systems 4.0).

The new born association leads the homonymous Competence Center coordinated by the Scuola Superiore Sant'Anna, and it is characterized as a partnership that connect universities, research institutes and companies focused on innovation.

ARTES 4.0 Competence Center is based on an inclusive but selective approach, with the aim of creating and managing a network that allow to overcome the gap between research and commercialization of cutting-edge projects in the field of advanced robotics and enabling digital technologies.

ARTES 4.0 association will allow the Competence Center to offer high quality services, with the aim of establishing a highly specialized network able to listen, acknowledge and satisfy the innovation needs expressed by companies.

Franco Cevolini, CTO and VP at CRP Technology, "CRP Technology has been a leader in the field of professional 3D printing for over 20 years thanks also to Windform® materials for selective laser sintering. We believe our know-how will bring a great contribution to highly specialized projects in the field of advanced robotics and enabling technologies that will be arising from ARTES.
ARTES 4.0 association brings together the sectors and production systems at the forefront of the Italian territory: CRP Technology, which has always believed in and invested in technological innovation, could not fail to take up this new challenge".

T.J. Davies' Retention Knobs

T.J. Davies' Retention Knobs

Our retention knobs are manufactured above international standards or to machine builder specifications. Retention knobs are manufactured utilizing AMS-6274/AISI-8620 alloy steel drawn in the United States. Threads are single-pointed on our lathes while manufacturing all other retention knob features to ensure high concentricity. Our process ensures that our threads are balanced (lead in/lead out at 180 degrees.) Each retention knob is carburized (hardened) to 58-62HRC, and case depth is .020-.030. Core hardness 40HRC. Each retention knob is coated utilizing a hot black oxide coating to military specifications. Our retention knobs are 100% covered in black oxide to prevent rust. All retention knob surfaces (not just mating surfaces) have a precision finish of 32 RMA micro or better: ISO grade 6N. Each retention knob is magnetic particle tested and tested at 2.5 times the pulling force of the drawbar. Certifications are maintained for each step in the manufacturing process for traceability.
