Modbus TCP Source and
Viewer for Dataxchange
—Scytec Consulting
Scytec Consulting Inc. has intro- duced two highly requested features inside the DataXchange machine mon- itoring platform pertaining to Modbus TCP. During the second week of Janu- ary 2022, DataXchange was updated
with an added ability to utilize Modbus TCP greatly expanding the landscape of devices that can be communicated with and monitored. Scytec DataX- change is a cloud subscription with a no-commitment month-to-month pricing option, or as an on-premises deployment.
The addition of Modbus TCP inside of Scytec DataXchange is a valuable addition for manufacturers needing to monitor PLCs and robots, especially with the increased use of cobots to address the labor shortage. The re- quests for remote monitoring of their efficiency and the need for receiving alerts have increased as cobots are running longer hours. Valuable produc- tion data from cobot monitoring can provide customers with the tools to
identify bottlenecks, minimize down- time and optimize production whether in a high-volume lights-out setting or a low-volume job shop.
HMC With Hardened,
Ground Inverted V-Shaped
Slideways Launched
—Niigata
Niigata says the HN800-V is built with the rigidity and accuracy neces- sary to perform ultra-precise contour machining and boring of components with critical tolerances. The HN800-V is reportedly the world’s first machin- ing center to feature hardened and ground inverted v-shaped slideways; it can achieve volumetric accuracy of .00005” per foot. The v-shaped slideway system converts the weight of the column unit into restraining force on the sliding unit. The V-shaped slideways, consisting of anti-abrasion material, also contribute to the high- speed performance of the machine; it is capable of achieving rapid traverse of 1968 ipm).
For extreme stability, this v-shaped slideway machine features a solid mee- hanite cast iron frame with extensive ribbing. Further contributing to preci- sion performance is a powerful and rugged geared high torque spindle. It is constructed with seven sets of wide- spaced, super precision angular contact and roller bearings. The spindle head stock uses a mono-cast (single piece) castings.
The HN800-V’s pallet clamping system uses a stable clamper plate to ensure optimum down force and increased clamping forces of the pal- let during extreme cutting conditions. Jets of air discharge from the tapered cones when the pallet is changed to ensure proper clamping and to cleanse seating surfaces.
The HN800-V offers 60.2” x-axis travels, 48.4” y-axis travels, 40.2” z-
