Machine builders need appropriate, customised control concepts in order to meet rising demands on productivity and plant and machine availability. Interaction between the control functions for automation and safety are the key to success. Simpler, more flexible, more productive, more efficient – as the demands on plant and machinery rise, so too does the level of automation. And control technology has a key role. It is the playmaker; it processes the digital and analogue signals from the sensors and input devices, sends them to actuators, drives and control devices and keeps the plant running. The processes required to do this…

The new GARANT MasterSteel SlotMachine from the Hoffmann Group is a solid carbide roughing end mill which achieves high feed rates when slot milling from solid in steel. The innovative knuckle form profile produces extremely compact swarf. Therefore, the Hoffmann Group was able to construct the milling cutter with five cutting edges. As a result, at a constant feed rate per tooth the new five-edge end mill achieves 25 percent higher process efficiency than a classic four-edge end mill. Thanks to the innovative knuckle form profile, the cutting pressure is lower and higher feed rates can be obtained with a…
