Choosing a Robotic Spindle for Deburring
The nature of the deburring task is highly repetitive, dirty, and carries a risk of injury. Retaining personnel for such a strenuous and messy job is challenging. Robotic deburring is an appealing option for these reasons, plus the results are more precise and repeatable.
Customer Challenge: Double Enveloping Worm Threading on a Multi-Tasking Machine
While it's common for many shops these days to cut gears on Multi-Tasking machines such as our INTEGREX i-450ST, fulfilling the customer's request for tailored software to aid in programming proved a bit challenging to overcome.
Liquid HollowStream™ Cone Nozzles and Electrostatic Filters
The contractor used a cleaning solution to break down the contamination prior to rinsing and drying. They had to be careful with the electrostatic filters as the ionizing wires that are used to charge the particles are very thin and prone to breaking.
HEIDENHAIN In Action at OMIC
Exciting manufacturing research is happening daily at OMIC R&D (Oregon Manufacturing Innovation Center - Research & Development) and many types of HEIDENHAIN precision measurement components are working inside.
Transforming Legacy Manufacturing Enterprises With AI on the Edge
This article discusses how legacy manufacturing enterprises can harness the latest technologies, to optimize factory operations without having to ramp up infrastructure investment.
The Advantages of Digital Pressure Sensors in Industrial Applications
Learn when and why it is best to use digital pressure sensors in industrial applications and what types of features can help increase system safety, efficiency and reliability.
In the Vacuum Workshop
In the semiconductor industry, cleanliness and precision are absolutely critical. Swiss vacuum specialist VAT therefore partnered up with maxon to develop a drive system for wafer processing.
Engineered-to-Order Mission Critical Hydraulic Manifolds Drive Overall Equipment Effectiveness of Fluid Power Systems
With increased energy efficiency shorter flow paths minimize pressure drops reducing installation costs. Equally important in the ETO design process is the reduction of fluid leaks and upkeep.
Advanced Metrology Tools Enable Reliable Engine Light-Weighting
This article analyzes the role of cutting-edge optical metrology tools have in facilitating the manufacture of light-weighted engine components. Light-weighting is a priority for automotive OEMs in their quest to adhere to exacting engine efficiency and emission guidelines.
4 Factors Impacting Accuracy and Repeatability of Your Scales
Even the highest quality industrial weighing scales are affected by several factors such as their surrounding environment, load cell accuracy, interferences etc. To prevent the negative impact of these factors, it's important to understand them.
Major Components of Mass Flow Meters and Controllers
A mass flow meter (MFM) has five major components: flow body, flow conditioning section, flow sensor tube, bypass, and electronics. A mass flow controller (MFC) has the same components as an MFM, but also has an integral control valve mounted on the same flow body as the MFM
Track and Protect Vital Industrial Assets with Print Yourself Asset Tags
Tagging essential equipment and tools guards against theft, loss, and misplacement while improving workflow, maintenance, and asset management.
Plasma Wafer Processing Tools
During manufacturing of integrated circuits (ICs), it is necessary to perform many deposition and etching steps to build the necessary internal structures. Among the most common are ashing, or stripping, to remove photoresist from etched wafers..
How the Right Rollers Ensure a Better End Product
Tighter tolerances translate into less vibration, fewer jams, and increased performance consistency all important aspects of any manufacturing process.
When Should You Re-Manufacture or Refurbish Equipment?
In most cases, re-manufactured hardware is better because its closer to new. That doesnt mean refurbished hardware is bad, just that you should remain aware of the differences.

Model TR1 Tru-Trac
The Model TR1 Tru-Trac® linear measurement solution is a versatile option for tracking velocity, position, or distance over a wide variety of surfaces. An integrated encoder, measuring wheel, and spring-loaded torsion arm in one, compact unit, the Model TR1 is easy to install. The spring-loaded torsion arm offers adjustable torsion load, allowing the Model TR1 to be mounted in almost any orientation - even upside-down. The threaded shaft on the pivot axis is field reversible, providing mounting access from either side. With operating speeds up to 3000 feet per minute, a wide variety of configuration options - including multiple wheel material options - and a housing made from a durable, conductive composite material that minimizes static buildup, the Model TR1 Tru-Trac® is the ideal solution for countless applications.
