Compact and lightweight–such is the most common requirement for the gearboxes of emission-free, electric drives. With seven basic gearboxes, the LPI series by Liebherr fulfils exactly this need for high power density. With their low weight, reduced installation space and torque ranges from 20,000 Nm to 350,000 Nm, they are ideally suited as drives for crawler and crawler undercarriages. Customized large gearboxes are even available up to the maximum torque of 2,300,000 Nm.

Horn is expanding its tool portfolio for gear cutting to include types for milling PTO shafts. Manufacturers are increasingly focusing on the complete machining of drive shafts. Horn has standardized its own tool range for this purpose, which demonstrates high milling performance. 

Siemens Digital Industries Software announced it is adding accelerated pre-silicon development in the cloud to its hardware assisted verification product offering with PAVE360 software for Software Defined Vehicles (SDV). The solution is the first accelerated simulation environment to support the new Arm Cortex-A720AE CPU semiconductor IP, launched in March 2024.

Seco Nanojet Solid Carbide Reamers enhance chip control with an innovative through-coolant outlet for optimal chip evacuation. This design eliminates costly scrapped parts, jamming and edge damage to increase safety, part quality and tool life.

In many areas of application, it is uneconomical to use oversized universal cylindrical grinding machines for the external machining of smaller components - a lot of floor space is lost and the functionality is not fully utilized. With the new WPG 7 CNC external grinding machine, EMAG Weiss demonstrates another way of grinding workpieces with a maximum length of 250 millimeters. The very small machine requires only a minimal footprint, but at the same time features a whole range of high-tech components for flexibility and productivity. What is important in detail? 

Rego-Fix USA will spotlight two new tool clamping/unclamping units for the company’s powRgrip toolholding system and a new spindle drawbar force testing tool at IMTS 2024 in Booth 431822. The new units are the PGA (automatic) 9500 and the powRgrip Single, while the ForceMaster tool is the latest addition to the company’s family of metrology products.

Production facilities are increasingly the targets of cyberattacks. Industrial companies are therefore required to identify and close potential vulnerabilities in their systems. To address the need to identify cybersecurity vulnerabilities on the shop floor as quickly as possible, Siemens has launched a new cybersecurity software-as-a-service.
