Mr. Vélez García explains: “Various workpiece types are swapped several times a day. We can flexibly retool the grinding machine without complications and in the shortest possible time. The temperature in the plant is controlled at 23 to 26 °C. This ensures a stable grinding process with the in-process measuring systems used by JUNKER. A high process capability (CpK) is achieved by the use of the JUNKER grinding machine.” The QUICKPOINT cylindrical grinding machine from JUNKER impresses with its enormous capacity and flexibility through a single clamping process. Sisamex produces gear shafts with maximum precision while reducing auxiliary process times;…

THE AUTOMOTIVE INDUSTRY USES VAST AMOUNTS OF COMPRESSED AIR, INDUSTRIAL GASES, AND CONVEYOR SYSTEMS, WHICH MAKES TIMELY LEAK AND MECHANICAL FAULT DETECTION VITAL FOR COST AND ENERGY EFFICIENCY AS WELL AS OPERATIONAL CONTINUITY. Hidden leaks and mechanical faults are common nuisances in many industries that rely heavily on pneumatic equipment and conveyor systems. Undetected leaks and faults can over time lead to severe issues from energy waste and significant financial losses to unplanned outages and even potential safety hazards. Leaks and mechanical faults can also contribute to problems with system operations, such as fluctuating system pressure, excess compressor capacity, decreased…
