NSK launches world’s fastest high-load ball screws Since 1996, NSK has been developing its HTF series of high-load ball screw drives. To match market demand for shorter cycle times when producing parts such as guide plates for smartphones displays, the linear drives of the latest Nord’s intelligent drive technology at Hannover Messe <strong>2018</strong> At Hannover Messe <strong>2018</strong>, Nord Drivesystems, will be exhibiting its innovative drive systems in Hall 15 on Stand H31 and its latest injection moulding machines need to be capable of operating with higher acceleration and faster feed rates. With this in mind, two series of high-load ball screws from NSK have been expanded in line with industry requirements. In the HTF-SRE series, NSK now offers small and medium spindle diameters starting from 50 mm for latest injection moulding machines with very high dynamic performance requirements. In addition, the series now features nuts that are far more compact, with outer dimensions compatible with those of the HTF-SRC series, which are already used in numerous injection moulding machines around the world. Further, the company’s HTF-SRD series, which is ideal for the clamping units of plastic injection moulding machines, has been expanded with versions featuring larger leads. Machinery designers can now utilise high-load ball screws with top feed speeds of 2 to 3 m/s, which in turn allows end users to benefit from shorter cycle times and increased productivity. www.nskeurope.com technologies for the logistics industry at the CeMAT exhibition in Hall 21 on Stand C33. The components which will be exhibited include the Nordac Link series field distributor. This drive control is available as a frequency inverter or a motor starter, it also enables rapid commissioning, simple operation and maintenance. Thanks to an integrated PLC and compatibility with all common bus systems, it can be easily integrated into all modern automation systems. Nord’s intelligent networking in drive technology enables machine to machine communication, predictive maintenance as well as continuous condition monitoring of the drives – right from conveyor drives up to industrial gear units. With the SK TU4-PNS PR<strong>OF</strong>Isafe interface module, Nord focuses on high functional safety of plant and machinery. This module meets the most stringent safety requirements, enables flexible integration of various safety components and ensures secure communication in Profinet environments. www.nord.com Incredibly simple and quick: fastening Standard Series C-profile rails by stud welding PRODUCTS In response to customer requirements from different sectors, the Stauff Group has now extended its stud welding system with a further application for the secure and permanent fixing of tube, hose and cable clamps to substructures. Standard C-profile rails from the company’s own TS range can now be fixed to systems using fiber glass-reinforced polyamide adapters specially developed for this purpose, without them having to be point-welded or welded along their entire length, as was the case up to now in conventional processes. These plastic adapters are simply placed on the stud weld and screwed together using M6 × 10 hexagonal socket screws or half-round screws. Users therefore benefit from significant time savings, cost savings, ease of use and improved flexibility in the assembly of profile rails. In addition to supplying the individual components – weld studs, a wide range of different clamp bodies and fastening hardware, including for clamping belts, cable ties or corrugated cable protection hoses – Stauff also offers assembly tools, including a weld inverter, weld gun with positioning tube, weld stud retainer and distance adapters. No high-voltage connection is required to use these simple and compact tools. www.stauff.com 42 <strong>WORLD</strong> <strong>OF</strong> <strong>INDUSTRIES</strong> 2/<strong>2018</strong>
