Xiris Automation Inc. announced the release of its revolutionary next-generation weld camera, the XVC-700. The lightweight, slimline XVC-700 camera is specifically designed for integration with welding automation in spaces too small for traditional welding cameras.

The new Coherent HighLightTM FL-ARM with Fiber-Fiber-Switch is a high-power (2 8 kW), dual fiber output laser that can sequentially power two separate workstations or processes.

Xiris Automation announced that Weld Australia has been appointed as its exclusive Distributor of Xiris Weld Camera products for Australia.

The marine industry in general has been slow to embrace the 3D printing concept. The use of continuous liquid metal deposition under computer numerical control has created opportunities to produce complex shapes such as forgings and castings whilst avoiding the need for expensive tooling and the time delays in fabricating moulds. Notwithstanding this slow start, development work at Delft Technical University in 2017 has led to the production of the world’s first metal deposited marine propeller.

Starting in the 1990s and accelerating ever since the automobile industry has been defined by a revolution in innovation. From the internal combustion engine to the complete electric vehicle and the in-between hybrid, power train technologies are in a state of constant evolution. But innovation doesn’t stop with the engine.

Vectis Automation has chosen Universal Robots’ UR10e cobot to power the Vectis Cobot Welding Tool launching at FABTECH 2019 in Chicago, giving smaller weld shops a low-risk, easy solution to increase weld capacity, quality, and stability.

Laser transmission welding is also known as laser welding is a method employed for joining plastic parts. It enables even very small components with complex geometries to be produced in a cost-efficient and resource-friendly manner, making it part of the growing trend toward the miniaturization of electrical and electronic functions.

Sandvik’s team based in Dubai has announced a new working partnership with heat exchanger manufacturer Serck Services (Gulf) based in Sharjah, UAE.

Stalatube Oy of Lahti, Finland, has invested a total of EUR 20M in the past two years, of which EUR 7M has been invested in a production facility in Poland.

The Institute of Plasma Physics, Chinese Academy of Sciences (ASIPP) has developed a large-scale vacuum electron beam welding (EBW) system, including China Fusion Engineering Test Reactor (CFETR) vacuum vessel collar as a pre-research part completed by this system, and it has passed the expert acceptance test recently.
