including 1018 steel. Cutting performance is said to be 20% faster than OKK’s HM500S and 25% faster at rigid tapping. OKK USA Corp. Ph: 630-924-9000 Web site: www.okkcorp.com


Robotic Waterjet Trimming Cells Alliance Automa- tion LLC’s robotic waterjet trimming cells feature dual wall-mounted Motoman HP20D robots and jet Edge’s


60 KSI (4100-bar) iP60-50 waterjet intensifier pumps. the new six-axis robotic waterjet trimming cell leads the industry in precision and dependability with Motoman’s ±0.06-mm repeatability and Jet Edge’s reliable tie-rod intensifier design. The cell’s sturdy, compact frame design allows stability to both


the tool and robots to ensure consistent tight part tolerances. Most commonly used in the automotive industry, Alliance au- tomation’s robotic waterjet trimming cell precisely cuts shaped parts with many angles from a wide variety of materials, including carpeting, fiberglass, foam and plastic. The system has numerous automotive interior applications, including trim- ming headliners, dashboards, dash liners, bed liners, wheel liners, door panels, trunk trim, car carpet, and acoustic damp- enign components.

Single-Cable Solution for Servodrive Technology Typically, motors require two separate cables: one for the mo- tor speed encoder and the other for the motor power supply. With the Hybrid Motor Cable Project called HMC 6, Heiden- hain has integrated the encoder lines into the power cable so now only one cable is needed between a synchronous motor and electrical cabi- net. All the lines for the encoders, mo- tors and brakes are now available in one cable, thus reduc- ing hardware and


associated costs. The connection of the new HMC 6 (Hybrid Motor Cable with 6 litz wires for measuring) single-cable to the motor is done with a special connector. For connection to the inverter, the cable is split into power connections and an encoder connector. This makes it compatible on the control side with all the same components as conventional cables.
