How Will We Fuel the Future?
Senior Editor Matt Jaster reports that his first trip to the CTI (Car Transmission Institute) Symposium USA six years ago was eye-opening regarding the ambitious forecasts for electrification in the automotive industry. Today, the future of EV and HEV drives and components looks much more attainable, and the latest CTI Symposium confirmed this electric journey. Click to read the full coverage.
Horizontal hobbers aren’t just for making shafts.
Thanks to integrated automation and part size flexibility, EMAG Koepfer’s K 160 and 300 horizontal hobbing machines can tackle every imaginable gear cutting scenario, including machining both disc and shaft type workpieces. They work especially well for manufacturing high volumes of automotive pinions and gears.
Low Pressure Carburizing of Gears
Solar Atmospheres provides low pressure carburizing (LPC) that significantly increases the surface hardness/strength of steel parts for improved friction and wear. Performing LPC in a vacuum furnace eliminates oxygen and prevents IGO (intergranular oxidation) that is inherent in atmospheric carburizing, resulting in clean parts with less distortion reducing post process finishing operations, and costs.
