Taegutec Releases Range Of Face-Milling Cutters

Taegutec has released the Chaseplusquad range of face-milling cutters for heavy machining applications with a depth of cut up to 8.8mm. The new range of face mills has a 45deg entering angle that accommodates 16mm square double-sided inserts with eight cutting edges for rough machining. The product series consists of a range of cutter diameters with different pitches and mounting styles, making the Chaseplusquad suitable for a variety of applications.

The new series is available as a screw-clamp, wedge-clamp, cartridge-type or quick-change-type cutter that incorporates a system that gives the end user the option of using screw- or cartridge-type inserts on the same cutter body. The Chaseplusquad offers cutter diameters from 63mm to 400mm for medium- to large-component processing. Depending on the overall diameter, the cutters have the option of six to 58 insert pockets, with fine-pitch options delivering the ideal solution for high-feed and high-speed machining, according to the company.

The Chaseplusquad is available with a variety of Taegutec insert grades, including the TT9080, the TT7080, the TT7800, the TT8030, the TT9080, the TT6080, the TT6290 and the TT6030. This range of grades permits high-feed and high-speed machining with good surface finishes on a variety of materials, including low- and high-carbon steel, alloyed, tool and stainless steels and titanium alloys and cast-iron grades. This new addition to the Chaseplusquad line, with SNMHX 16 inserts, complements the existing SNMGX 12 inserts with 45deg and 75deg entering angles and the SNGX 13 inserts with 88deg and 90deg entering angles.

What is Class I Division 2?

Image
A Class I Division 2 is a location: (1) In which volatile flammable gases, flammable liquid-produced vapors, or combustible liquid-produced vapors are handled, processed, or used, but in which the liquids, vapors, or gases will normally be confined within closed containers or closed systems from which they can escape only in case of accidental rupture or breakdown of such containers or systems or in case of abnormal operation of equipment, or (2) In which ignitable concentrations of flammable gases, flammable liquid-produced vapors, or combustible liquid-produced vapors are normally prevented by positive mechanical ventilation, and which might become hazardous through failure or abnormal operation of the ventilating equipment. Class I Division 2 Classification Class I Division 2 refers to the ANSI/ISA 12.12.01 standard. This standard was previously UL1604 until UL recommended the newer ANSI/ISA standard be used and that all hazardous location products be certified under this standa

FUSE SIZING CONSIDERATIONS FOR HIGHER EFFICIENCY MOTORS

Image
When selecting the proper fuse for short circuit protection in motor starting applications, it is important to not only ensure that the fuse will not nuisance open during motor start up times, but also that the fuse will coordinate as required with overload relays. When sizing fuses between 125% and 150% of the motor nameplate current, several advantages, including ease of coordination with an overload device, a smaller disconnect, and increased short circuit protection from a lower fuse rating, can be achieved. However, if sizing at this level prevents the motor from starting, it may then be necessary to increase the fuse ampere rating and it then becomes important to know the NEC sizing limitations. As of June 1, 2016, the US Department of Energy has mandated that newly manufactured electric motors will need to meet NEMA Premium® efficiency standards. As motor efficiencies increase, motor locked rotor currents can also be expected to increase. In addition to this, with across-the-lin

7/8 16UN Connectors that Provide 600 Volts and 15 Amps

TURCK announces new A-Size 3 and 4-pin 7/8 16UN powerfast™ connectors that provide up to 600 Volts and 15 Amps of power. These IP67 rated connectors provide a modular wiring system designed to handle high current applications for machine power distribution, while providing resistance to vibration commonly associated with conveyors, motors and material handling applications. The cordsets are available with a tray rated, exposed run PVC flexlife ® cable, with or without STOOW rating, and 14 AWG wires that allow you to replace hard wiring with a robust, quick disconnect system that saves the time and money spent installing a conduit system. The A-Size powerfast line offers male and female, straight connectors, standard and custom lengths, and pigtails or extensions. To make the system complete, fully encapsulated mating receptacles, with 1/2”-14 NPT mounting threads are available.
