102 www.CNC-West.com CNC WEST August/September 2018 IMTS 2018 Preview September 10-14 2018 S206 – 20 mm, 6-Axis Swiss turn. New to Tsugami/Rem Sales is Os- cillation Turning for 20 mmmachines. This technology will be demonstrated live on the Tsugami B0205. The ben- efits of Oscillation Turning include in- creased chip control by breaking chips; especially when cutting materials such as plastic, aluminum, Inconel, and copper. The Z-axis oscillates to break up chips and prevent bird-nesting by alternating cutting depths as the mate- rial is fed through the machine. This feature also reduces heat generation. An additional new technology featured in the Tsugami/Rem Sales booth is Gosiger Automation’s robotic loading system, which will be shown. MachineMetrics will also be high- lighted. Tsugami/Rem Sales recently announced an integrated partnership with MachineMetrics, for remote ma- chine health monitoring and improved customer support. Q-Mark Manufacturing Inc. to Introduce Seven New Products —Booth #135501 Q-Mark, a premiere U.S. source for ruby and diamond probe styli, is introducing seven new products to meet the wide array of challenges they receive from their manufacturing clientele. One of the new products is the ultralight M2 right angle stylus holder, used to measure internal grooves and perpendicular bores. Before this ultra- light holder, CMM users were forced to use star hubs or knuckle joints with threaded styli to achieve right angle probing. Multiple parts were required, adding weight and limiting clearance. In contrast, the new ultralight holder weighs just 2.40 grams and allows the use of any unthreaded stylus. Because no additional parts are needed, it’s more rigid, and far less expensive than conventional setups. It reaches into tight spaces with ease, simplifying part set-up and programming. In other news, Q-Mark is intro- ducing replacement styli for Metrol high-precision touch probe systems, commonly used on CNC machines. Cecor to Have Live Sump Cleaner Demos ‑Booth #121023 CECOR will feature the SE15 single-phase electric and the SA5 air- operated units. Sump Shark sump cleaners help maintain machine tool coolant by filtering dirty coolant and making the cleaning process faster and easier. An important part of coolant main- tenance is filtering the metal chips and swarf from the coolant. Chips and sludge at the bot- t o m o f the sump can cause microbial g r o w t h w h i c h leads to s m e l l y coolant and the risk of dermatitis, which is an uncomfortable skin rash. Metal chips circulating through the machine can mar the work piece and the machine tool. With suction lifts up to 26” Hg (350” water) a Sump Shark can suck up an entire sump of metalworking fluid entrained with sludge and metal chips in just minutes ( or seconds depending on sump size). The solids are caught in the onboard filter as the coolant passes into the tank. Pump filtered coolant out of the tank through the discharge port hose. Cecor will be demonstrating the speed of the Sump Shark by sucking out a 30-gallon tank filled with water, metal chips, sludge and gravel.ASump Shark sump cleaner is much easier to use and faster than pail and shovel, shop vac or diaphragm pump. The SE15 can be plugged into any standard 110v electric unit. The SA5 conveniently operates on shop air. Sump Shark sump cleaners have overfill protection and all discharge ports are valved. Units comes complete with hoses, quick-disconnect coupler, suction tools and filter bags. Hurco to Celebrate 50th Anniversary —Booth #338319 Hurco will bring the party to Mc- Cormick Place to celebrate its 50th Anniversary with customers, industry partners, and IMTS attendees. Hurco will feature its latest CNC technology innovation on its 50th Anniversary Edition CNC machines. “IMTS is the perfect venue to cel- ebrate all of our loyal customers and all of the people who have been a part of Hurco’s success this past 50 years to help us fulfill our founder’s mission to make manufacturing companies of all sizes more productive and more profitable.
