WIRE 2012 The Ingramatic RP62-VP thread-rolling centre has a double
loading system, allowing production of screws and studs on the same machine. All machines are available in a VP-version having, in addition to traditional feed rails for screws, one vibratory feeder with video camera and orientating station in order to feed studs of any shape. The RP22-R1-CTRL is another winning Sacma technology. The
standard machine is customised to allow dimensional control of blanks by video camera. This innovative solution guarantees the rejection of non conforming parts before threading without production speed reduction.
2012 – Time for revolution At wire 2012 Sacma Group will present a new thread-rolling
machine inspired by the I-thread concept. The Ingramatic R&D department has developed new solutions for easy and effective tool set up and greater accuracy of parts with a new starter unit. Sacma will present the S-feed concept for its progressive and
combined headers. This patented system means the header is fed in the most precise and simplest way available today. The new touch screen panel SC-Matic facilitates tool set up allowing full process control. Sacma will demonstrate how it can guarantee the quality of
Setting inspection standards
At wire 2012 Mectron will exhibit its world-renowned Q5000 Qualifier inspection system as well as demonstrating the First Scan 150R non-contact, automatic precision measuring unit, which since its launch in 2010 has revolutionised first article inspection.
conforming sample. Passing the conforming part down the track automatically displays an outline on the Q5000’s touch screen, which then allows an unlimited number of gauge zones to be set for each of the eight lasers. The Q5000 also includes Mectron’s Magnetic Imagery™, an
T
advanced digital eddy current technique providing comprehensive on-the-fly metallurgical inspection. The magnetic image created as the part passes through the system provides a full signature, allowing detection of critical metallurgical defects including cracks, variations in hardness, material mix and plating conductivity. Additional options to enhance Q5000 inspection capabilities
include a CCD vision camera and LED light ring set-up to inspect for open flange cracks and for recess inspection. The Mectron team will be pleased to discuss a range of
possible upgrades for existing Qualifier systems. These include upgrading to a Windows®
operating system, installation of the
company’s latest LSR-30 lasers, a Laser Length Analyser, and a Tilt Laser Plate. The Mectron First Scan 150R is designed for cylindrical
components and performs non-contact measurements with accuracy and speed, networking data to a variety of SPC formats. The First Scan 150R utilises a telecentric backlight illuminator to produce a high contrast silhouette of the workpiece. The illuminator, designed specifically for gauging applications, increases edge contrast and measurement accuracy. Images are received by a high-resolution digital line scan camera capable of accepting more than 14,000 updates per second. Data is collected by 8,160 sensitive pixels, which can detect changes in

he Q5000 Qualifier provides 360 degree part inspection using Mectron’s radial laser array, ensuring the detection of dimensional discrepancies through high-speed comparison of each part against an initially scanned

the light pattern at sub-micron resolution. During the scanning process a calibration cone incorporated in the workpiece holder provides the basis for measurements to be automatically provided by the machine. Once the part image is scanned an unlimited number of measurement zones may be pre-set along with the corresponding dimensional specifications and control limits. Each measurement zone allows the user to input minimum and maximum tolerances, and control limits. Specific thread tolerances for standard and metric thread sizes are provided via drop-down features. The custom reporting feature provides a visual graph indicating the measurement against pre- set tolerances and control limits. The First Scan 150R scans the part using two separate servo drives. The first scans the part on the linear axis for geometric tolerances of features like diameter, width, radii, angles and threads. The second rotates and scans the part on the radial axis and inspects for concentricity, flats, hexs, perpendicularity and cylindricity. The First Scan 150R is capable of inspecting parts up to 35mm in diameter and lengths up to 150mm.

produced parts using the new LoadMatic, which monitors loads both in the main frame and in individual stations, driving the non- conforming parts discharge device. There are also small but constant improvements for the
Sacma Transfer, consolidating its position of excellence and expanding its capacity to handle a wider range of parts, from extra-long to the shortest, at maximum production speed. The introduction of the patented Transfer Support Assist Package extends the transferring performance to more difficult tapered and stepped parts.
