Benefits Of Using OEM In Precision Machining

Original equipment manufacturer (OEM) parts will make a difference, and this difference will be magnified in precision machining. The benefits of OEM parts are important and will make a difference in any industry, some of which are more obvious than others. In order to make this situation obvious, what should we be OEM, the difference between OEM and ODM, and the advantages of OEM in precision parts manufacturing.

NK Technologies Introduces New AGV Ground Fault Relay Designed for Variable Speed Driven Loads

NK Technologies released a new AGV Series Ground Fault Relay with the ability to detect faults to earth on the load side of a variable frequency drive. This unique capability addresses a challenge caused by the carrier or switching frequency of the drive. (Typically, the fault current will be detected at the base frequency, which determines the motor speed.) While many variable frequency drives have ground fault detection built-in, the detection level is the same as the overcurrent limit - that approach will shut down the drive, but only after considerable damage to the motor has occurred. In comparison, the AGV will trip at a fraction of the motor's full load current. Its design allows the sensor to trip at a choice of 30, 50, or 100 mA to current to earth.

Kaman Measuring Announces New KD-5100+ High Reliability Sensor System

KOGANEI Expands Motion Control Capabilities with Air Picker and Air Gripper Components

- KOGANEI International America, Inc., has added Air Picker and Air Gripper (Bridgestone Series) components to their selection of high performance pneumatic grippers. These versatile rubber end effectors are designed to handle workpieces securely, gently, and with precision. Air Picker and Air Gripper have numerous factory automation and warehouse applications, including picking, transporting, and loading products, as well as sealing and stopper fitting. KOGANEI's Air Picker and Air Gripper offer several advantages over conventional grippers: 1. Larger contact area provides more secure, precise, and gentle holding for fragile objects 2. Significantly lighter and capable of carrying a load 25 to 100 times their own weight 3. Multiple workpiece sizes can be handled with the same unit - no need to change gripping chuck for each product diameter
