Dawn Hartung, Strategic Account Manager for BOFA Americas, discusses how continued growth in 3D print markets is driving the development of new functional materials designed for specific applications and products.
Richard Heard, Technical Sales Manager at BOFA, discusses the increasingly important role of data as industry ups its investment in automation. He also talks about the contribution that digital innovation in industrial fume and dust extraction can make to laser sector productivity.
The AD PVC iQ extraction system has been designed to help deal with the corrosive nature of the fumes generated when lasering PVC materials.
The latest design specification now covers many of the features associated with our “best in class” AD Oracle iQ model as standard but in addition, all internally exposed surfaces have been coated to resist the corrosive nature of the fume and each unit is fitted with HCI and VOC sensors which continually monitor the exhaust air of the unit.
The AD Oracle SA iQ has been enhanced with BOFA’s Intelligent Operating System (iQ), RFA and ACF technology. It uses a smaller pre-filter to the AD Oracle iQ making it ideal for lighter-use applications.
The compact ‘go anywhere’ fume extraction system is feature-packed for big performance in small-scale industrial sites and light laser coding applications.
Incorporating many of the features found on our larger systems, the AD Nano+ is a cost-effective solution for light to medium-duty applications, making it the ideal choice for installations where floor space is limited. Using an auto-voltage sensing blower means the unit can be used anywhere in the world.
BOFA’s AD 1000 iQ high-end laser extraction system combines extremely large filter capacity with high airflow and pressure rates, making it the ideal choice for heavy-duty applications that generate large amounts of particulate and gaseous organic compounds.
This video is a comprehensive introduction to DAC Worldwide's Gear Maintenance Training System Plus, showcasing its functionalities, operational aspects, and key features. It offers an in-depth overview, highlighting the system's operation and emphasizing its primary attributes, providing viewers with a comprehensive understanding of its capabilities and benefits.
Advanced manufacturing and industries from nearly every sector utilize some form of mechanical maintenance to ensure their production runs smoothly. When a component malfunctions, it is crucial that the designated industrial maintenance technician be prepared to handle a variety of issues, including problems that arise that involve gears, shafts, and bearings.
DAC Worldwide’s Gear Maintenance Training System Plus teaches learners to identify, install, align, and troubleshoot a variety of gears.
The system features a CNC-machined gear box that is made of welded aluminum and mounted to a steel baseplate. Multiple types of gears are included, such as: spur gears, helical gears, worm gears, and bevel (miter) gears. These gear sets also include different pitches, ratios, pressure angles, and pitch diameters. Tapered roller bearings, radial ball bearings, shafting with keyways and keys, custom bearing housings, and flanged bearing units are also included. Additionally, there is a handle for illustrating thrust and establishing wear patterns.
Using the included training manual, learners will practice several hands-on skills and increase their understanding of precision gearing. Topics covered in the manual and activities include gear components and terminology; parallel shaft gearing; spur gears and measurement of backlash; taper roller bearings; helical gearing; 90-degree shaft gearing; bevel gears; cross shaft gearing; worm gears; and planetary gearing.
