The Changing Face of the Off-Highway Drivetrain
If trade shows are still a major indicator of market growth, the construction and off-highway industries seem to be in a good place in 2023. CONEXPO-CONAGG and IFPE 2023 welcomed more than 139,000 attendees to Las Vegas in March. These visitors were treated to 2,400 exhibitors from 36 countries reaffirming the belief that innovation and sustainability will drive these markets in the coming years.
CTI USA Symposium 2023 Recap
Our global push towards electrification continues to produce skepticism, pessimism, and doubt despite the many obstacles the automotive industry has overcome. There are good ideas, bad ideas, and the occasional terrible idea still on the table, but hearing all the debates, challenges and future considerations at the latest CTI USA Symposium in Novi, MI, reminds us EVs weren’t built in a day—and batteries, charging stations and all-electric heavy-duty trucks weren’t either. What we should appreciate—despite all the noise and uncertainty—is the men and women rolling up their sleeves and trying to solve the many challenges occurring in the e-mobility and electrification space.
Automated Solutions for Long Shafts & Heavy Gears
EMAG has hobbing machines with automated loading and unloading capable of machining parts up to 1000 mm long with weights up to 25 kgs. If your operation is looking to replace manual gear manufacturing equipment, our multi-axis machines are worth considering.
e-Mobility & LPC with HPGQ from ECM
As the drivetrain industry further transitions from ICE to EV, LOW PRESSURE CARBURIZING with HIGH PRESSURE GAS QUENCH has emerged as the optimal heat treatment method. Achieve consistent, high-quality metallurgy with very low distortion by performing LPC/HPGQ in your electric vehicle production line with an ECM vacuum furnace system
