ESAB Demobus Displays Latest Welding Equipment

ESAB, a producer of welding and cutting equipment and consumables, is bringing its Demobus to the UK in June 2010. The mobile showroom is packed with the latest developments in welding and cutting equipment, automation, consumables and welding accessories, including PPE (personal protective equipment). ESAB has used a Demobus to tour Europe for several years, stopping at distributors to present to customers an overview of the company's welding and cutting products.

As well as static displays and videos, the Demobus features live welding demonstrations of a range of equipment and consumables. The ESAB Demobus is also being used as part of the launch for the 'go anywhere welders', the Caddymig C160i and C200i. These two compact lightweight inverter-powered machines will be demonstrated throughout the tour. They can be used for a broad range of applications and can run off a 230V electric supply or operated by a generator. The Caddymig's are also configured for using gas-less cored wire, eliminating the need to carry around heavy and expensive gas cylinders when out on a job.

The ESAB Demobus will start its tour at the Farnborough College of Technology Aerospace and Automotive Academy supported by local ESAB distributor Britannia Welding Supplies. The Demobus will then visit a selection of ESAB distributor premises including Elmdale Welding and Engineering Supplies in Hadleigh, Suffolk; Truflame Welding Equipment in Sheffield; Complete Welding Services in Oldham; Thomas Proctor and Son in Gateshead and Weldsafe in Glasgow. From 24-27 June, the Demobus will be at the Royal Highland Show in Edinburgh in conjunction with local distributor Ask for Service, moving on to Highland Supplies in Inverness on 28 June.

Han® HC 250 high current contact

A Powerful Solution HARTING has developed the new Han® HC 250high current connector as a powerful interface that impresses by requiring little space, transmitting high current intensities and allowing flexible configuration of the number of poles. The HC 250 one-pole crimp module can be connected in various frame geometries to produce the required number of poles in a compact space – and in the existing Han® HPR housing. Technical details: - Rated current 250 A at a rated voltage of 2000 V - Termination cross-sections are: 35 mm2, 50 mm2 and 70 mm2 - Maximum four-pole interfaces in a size 24 B HPR housing, making it particularly suitable for motor connections - High quality plastic with good smoke and inflammability levels - Removal tool for simple installation and removal of the contacts and inserts - Confusion of a number of interfaces is reliably prevented by multiple coding options for the individual inserts The requirements in the railway industry are changing, as ...

EGCS-D0 Accelerometer Now Available in 10,000g Range

Measurement Specialties, Inc. (NASDAQ: MEAS) has recently redesigned the EGCS-D0 accelerometer to enable it to accurately and reliably measure up to ±10,000g. This rugged device is critically damped, which is the ideal mechanism to protect the accelerometer against ±20,000g impacts and prevent sensor ringing. The EGCS-D0 accelerometer is now available in ranges from ±5g to ±10,000g which makes it ideal for both critical low-g measurements and high-g impacts. These units feature a Wheatstone Bridge mV output with a standard compensated temperature range of 20ºC to 80ºC (other options available). The EGCS-D0 was specifically designed for impact and shock testing in auto safety, aerospace, military and civil engineering applications. Designed to be bolt-mounted, this device operates from 2-15Vdc excitation with electrical output ratiometric to voltage input. Optional triaxial mounting blocks (MTG-F4), signal conditioners (Model 101) and auto-zero inline amplifiers (Model 140) are avai...

Ilix Cermet Reamers Are Ideal For Dry Machining Engineers Cutting Tools, the UK agent for Ilix, has introduced Ilix solid-carbide and cermet reamers for the machining of hard metals. The machine reamers 6372C and 6323 allow the production of high-precision holes with good surface finish. Compared with HSS, the solid-carbide qualities enable the increase of cutting parameters and tool life. The quality of the reamers is said to guarantee high performance, even for hard metals with a resistance more than 1200N/mm2. The Ilix carbide 6372C range of hundredth reamers is from 0.98mm through to 12.05mm in increments of 0.01mm. The reamers are manufactured to a tolerance of +0.000 - +0.004mm. The cermet reamers 6323 have new cutting geometry developed by Ilix. These reamers are said to be ideal for steel machining, having high chemical stability during the cutting process. They offer good wear resistance due to the high hardness and have low material adhesion. The Ilix cermet reamer is said to...
