High-Flow Filter Housing
According to the manufacturer, the rugged and durable stainless steel design of the single-element FLDHousing allows for higher temperatures and pressures. The company adds that it does not to shrink the way plastic does and will not degrade or become brittle over time. Compared with multi-cartridge models, the housing is said to yield greater dirt-holding capacity and provide in-line, in-and-out connections that are easier to install and operate.

Carbide-Tipped Band Saw Blades Available In Two Configurations
Advanz carbide-tipped band saw blades feature a high-quality, submicron-grain carbide tooth tip cylinder with a triple-chip grind, which is welded to a tough, ductile back. These blades also feature quality carbide-to-back bonding and offer fatigue, shock, wear and strip resistance when cutting difficult-to-machine materials, the company says. The blades are available in “FS” and “TS” configurations.

Laser-Based ID/OD Measuring Instrument
The laser-based Labmaster universal measuring instrument is suited for gage calibration laboratories that need to precisely measure length, OD, ID, pitch diameter, linear displacement and thickness. According to the company, accuracy is maintained via a laser interferometer, a zero Abbé offset design and a large measuring table with center position, pitch and yaw controls. The computer-controlled precision air-bearing slide and gaging fingers reduce operator-influenced errors by maintaining constant force.

CAD/CAM Software Reduces Time, Errors
The latest version of PartMaker CAD/CAM software allows users to integrate a solid model into a programming window and assign tool paths directly to the model. Critical manufacturing data is automatically retrieved from a solid model using the software’s new “Extract Parameters from Solids” feature. This saves time and reducing the chance for error by eliminating redundant data entry, the company says.

Large-Format Waterjet
The 60120 JetMachining center is said to be ideal for quickly and accurately cutting large or multiple parts from stock ranging to 5 × 10 ft (1. 5 × 3 m). The system features a 600-lb abrasive delivery feed system as well as a traction drive that enables faster traverse speeds.
Read MoreKeep Tools In Place With High Loads
The SafeLock system combines the advantages of a shrink-fit chuck with those of a positive connection by integrating ball or pin drivers into the chuck. Those drivers grip into helical grooves that are ground into the cutter shank in the opposite direction of the cutting forces. The shape of the groove ensures that the tool is simultaneously safeguarded against spinning and against being pulled out when confronted with radial and axial cutting forces.
