Apex Dynamics unveils first couplings range at PPMA 2024
1 day agoApex Dynamics UK appeared at the PPMA 2024 show in Birmingham promoting the ways in which planetary gearboxes shape our world and showcasing its new couplings and MG/MGH gearbox ranges.
Current-compensated chokes for vertical PCB mounting
4 days agoSCHURTER is launching a new, vertically mountable choke family for PCBs with very high inductances. The DKCV-1 current-compensated chokes are designed for currents from 0.5 to 10 A. Thanks to their nanocrystalline cores, the new chokes have very high inductances with particularly compact dimensions.
Delta launches new AX-5 slim and flexible I/O modules
2 days agoDelta is expanding its product portfolio with the introduction of the new AX-5 series advanced slice I/O modules. The AX-5 modules are designed to elevate industrial automation with their ultra-slim profile, saving up to 50 percent space in control cabinets compared to traditional I/O module series.
Latest addition to Kistler
7 days agoThe electrical contact resistance between two fastener components is a key quality parameter, especially when the bolted joints carry electrical current. If the resistance is too high, heat is generated between the elements. In vehicles, for example, this can lead to malfunctions or even trigger fires. In response to this problem, Kistler is adding the OhmBox to its tried-and-tested ANALYSE friction coefficient test stand.
TR relaunches EPW Self-Extruding Screw
18 days agoTR Fastenings has relaunched its patented EPW self-extruding thread-forming screw, engineered to significantly cut assembly time and cost. Designed and manufactured in Europe, the TR EPW creates its own internal thread in thin sheet metal, and suits the HVAC, automotive, electronics, medical and telecoms industries.
We’d like to welcome you to the second
MachineBuilding.Live, building on last year’s highly
successful inaugural event to bring you an even
bigger and more comprehensive overview of our
industry. 2024 will see some 150 exhibitors come
together to provide a unique forum where visitors
can discover and discuss the latest products,
processes and innovations to have emerged over
the last 12 months.
A key element of the event is the workshops
programme, which has this year been extended
to 10, providing a world-class programme that
addresses real-world engineering challenges
and explores today’s most pressing automation
concerns. Half of the workshops will be focused
exclusively on the subject of machinery safety,
with each hosted by a leading expert in machinery
safety. So, if you are a machine builder, systems
integrator or manufacturing professional keen to
automate, this will be an unequalled opportunity
to get right up to date with all the latest UK
Legislation, how to ensure compliance and what
forthcoming changes are likely to appear in the
future.
New at MachineBuilding.Live for 2024 is an Action
Arena. It features some of the latest developments
from leading suppliers and they are being
demonstrated by the experts behind them. Seeing
is believing when it comes to the speed, precision
and repeatability you will witness. Head for the
Compton Suite when you arrive to see some of the
most fascinating and potentially game-changing
innovations to have emerged onto the machine
building scene recently.
When we say “all the answers in one day”, we really
do mean that this is an event where you can get the
maximum return on your time investment. It’s going
to be a fantastic day again, and we very much look
forward to seeing you.
