ESAB iSeries automated plasma power sources


boost profitability for stainless steel fabricators


savings for stainless steel fabricators. Designed as part of ESAB’s integrated system of components, and equally suitable for new systems and retrofits, the iSeries is the most advanced plasma power supply available today. With a maximum cut capability of 50 mm, the iSeries plasma power sources will benefit users in the food, drink, pharmaceutical, chemical, oil and gas, processing, shipbuilding, marine, offshore, nuclear and other industries utilizing stainless steel. Thanks to the Water Mist Secondary (WMS™) process,


E


which uses nitrogen as the plasma gas and tap water for shielding, the iSeries power sources cut up to three times faster and reduce the cost-per-cut by 20 per cent or more compared to systems using argon-hydrogen for the plasma gas. Most importantly, the higher productivity and lower cost-per-cut do not compromise cut quality.

Miniature sensor for very low force measurement applications


both machine builders and manufacturers of small devices. Not only is this family of miniature sensors physically small, being very sensitive, they accurately respond to extremely low levels of force. Typical of this family is the Kistler Type 9217, a miniature, high precision, low force


I


piezoelectric force sensor which is especially suited to testing delicate, miniature components without the risk of damage. Being only 46 mm long and 10 mm diameter, the new sensor may be used individually where space is at a premium or assembled into a matrix formation to test multiple components simultaneously after assembly.
