Read excerpt
Edge Technologies, a leader in magazine bar-feeding solutions for the production turning segment, has partnered with KUKA to display an FMB SL110 short loader with a KUKA robot to demonstrate autonomous material handling. The FMB SL110 is a short bar loader that handles bar diameters from 10-110 mm. An inclined magazine rack holds as many as 56 bars at 10 mm or five bars at 110 mm. The Edge Technologies demonstration features FMB’s bar lift accessory, a built-in bar lift that safely lifts bars i
Feeling Challenged with Direct Part Marking on Stainless Steel? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Ultra-short pulse laser black marking has emerged as a reliable solution for marking medical-grade stainless steel. Source: FOBA With Unique Device Identification (UDI) requirements under U.S. FDA regulations and EU Medical Device Regulation (MDR), direct part marking has become mandatory for many medical devices, including surgical instruments and implants. In practice, these requirements become challenging manufacturing-wise because of highly reflective metals, extremely limited marking areas
