Multi-tasking utilities of Windows operating system enable CNC parts to be run while user simultaneously programs other applications. Connectivity options, such as Ethernet and USB2.0, help reduce time spent transferring part program files. Part program size is limited only by hard drive space.

Customizable Windows GUI for PC Based CNC control

CHATSWORTH, CA- August 20, 2004- Delta Tau Data Systems Inc., the technology leader in multi-axis programmable motion control solutions, today announced the release of PMAC NC 5.0 software, a Windows-based customizable GUI for PC based CNC control.

“With the combination of PMAC HMI and the NC server, this new release offers the most advanced and flexible CNC software package available,” said Vince Burokas, Product Manager for CNC at Delta Tau Data Systems, Inc. “This new version builds on Delta Tau’s previous G-code software package that leverages Delta Tau’s legendary servo hardware performance to bring unprecedented levels of block throughput speed, cutting accuracy and the flexibility of a PC-based environment to the shop floor.”

A Techno CNC router paid for itself on the first job by producing an order of aluminum signs with acrylic letters for a bookstore chain in about one-tenth the time that would have been required to produce them by hand. The push-through acrylic letters had to be produced to demanding tolerances that would have been difficult or impossible to meet by hand. The Techno CNC router has helped the company enter new markets by producing signs and related specialty items from a range of materials including plastics, aluminum, wood and other materials in one-fifth to one-tenth of the time that would have been required by hand.Creative Accessories is a 25-employee company that is constantly seeking new niche markets for its products. The company’s primary product is signs and displays but it also produces a range of specialty items, most of which are made from a variety of acrylic plastics and woods. For example, the company has recently begun producing carved wood signs and marketing them through sign stores and catalogs. In the past, the company produced these items using traditional hand and power tools including bandsaws, shapers, and routers. This meant that a considerable amount of time was required to produce each piece and that accuracy was dependent on the skill of the person doing the work.

Huot Manufacturing Company’s offering of carts; towers; wall or machine-mount racks; benchtop platforms; portable tool totes; covers; drill, tap, end mill, reamer and insert dispensers; index cases and stands; collet racks; and accessories is outlined in this catalog.

 
Techno vacuum table and accessories are designed to be as universal as possible. Techno understands that fixturing parts can be the most complex part of manufacturing. With Techno’s vacuum table we allow for both Mechanical and Vacuum fixturing. What does this mean? If you are processing sheets of material such as MDF, Melamine, Plastic, Foam or any other sheet like material, vacuum hold-down is an excellent solution. If you are processing small or irregular shaped products then you may want to utilize vacuum along with mechanical clamps. With Techno’s universal vacuum table you can achieve both. With the “T” slots built into the vacuum table it is easy to mount gates for banking your material against which lines the material up square to the axis of travel. In addition Techno’s vacuum tables are zoned. If you are processing small parts then you do not require the entire machines vacuum table to be wide open, rather just a small section. Techno’s vacuum tables are also easily customizable. Techno’s vacuum tables are channeled which allow gasketing material to be routed around the vacuum table. The channels cut into the table are placed on a 1.0″ grid therefore the gasketing can be formed to any pattern to fixture small parts. In areas along the open zone where vacuum is not required simply utilizing the rubber plugs will close off the other vacuum ports in the zone. This flexibility makes the job easier and setup minimal.
  Vacuum Tables Pumps and clamping devices

Techno’s vacuum tables have independent zones. These
zones run  the length of the table. If for example you had
a 5 x 8 machine and wanted to cut a 12″x 12 part you
would simple shut off the other 5 zones and install the
rubber plugs in the areas not being used.

Model 60W Roller Hold-Down System

  Techno’s roller hold-down system is designed to work on Techno Premium Class CNC router models. It is ideal for rough plywood or stacked sheet materials when the conventional vacuum hold-down is not practical enough to do the job. Now two and three sheets of material can be processed allowing an even shorter manufacturing cycle time. The unique spindle position, (in between both rollers), applies maximum downward force to the material, preventing part slippage.


Roller Hold-Down Features:

  • (4) 2’’ diameter urethane covered steel rollers
  • Automated sensors lift and retract rollers before outer edge of work piece
  • 3’’ Roller clearance for easy loading and unloading of materials
  • Manual controls to adjust for various sheet lengths
  • Works well with warped materials
  • Protective roller guards
  • Provides part hold-down for ≥ 13’’

This system can be integrated into any lab that requires PCB coupon extraction. With the Camera attachment the circuit board traces and components are magnified 10 times, which intern allows the operator to zero the initial position location very accurately. Any coupon design can be programmed into the system and called up at any time. The operator simply needs to jog the machine into the starting location, call up the specific coupon design they want to rout, and press start. System Features:

  • 15 Different sizes available. Large Machine beds can cut EURO-Board type sizes any
    thickness or larger if required.
  • Economical
  • “T” slot surface allows for easy mounting of jig and fixtures.
  • High-resolution servo control system, which provides accurate system, which provides clean smooth edge finish.
  • Variable 1-1/4HP High-speed spindle (8000 to 24000 RPM) with dust shroud.
  • Free standing independent system.
  • PC Based system, which can be networked into company’s server.

When purchasing a CNC Router it is easy to overlook other auxiliary equipment needed to run the CNC. Proper dust collection is imperative. Techno routers run at high speeds and generate a fair amount of chips and dust. Collection of this debris, and most importantly dust that gets air born is crucial.Techno is proud to offer a 2HP two stage high performance cyclone dust collector with 0.2 – 2.0 Micron external filter cartridge.

Features:

-2HP TEFC 230V, 1-phase motor
-39″ External filter cartridge which capture particles between 0.2 and 2 microns @ 11 FPM face velocity.
-Vacuum dust hood controlled via CNC. Fits all HSD and Colombo spindles.
-Vacuum hood connection = 5.0″
-Includes ducting from cyclone to machine hood.
-Includes special mounting bracket which attaches to Techno CNC Router.
-35 Gallon Fiber drum.

Servo Controlled 4-Axis Rotary Table
Techno-isel Model 6100 Servo Controlled Rotary Table. This optional 4th axis set (Includes: Rotary Table,
Tailstock, 4th axis chip upgrade for Servo 400 controller card, Motor Amplifier and cable, Center set, and
mounting accessories) is ideal for model making, prototyping, woodworking, or any application where indexing or
4 axis cutting is required. The standard Rotary Table package is a single carving setup only, but when high production is required Techno offers the Rotary outrigger setup for multiple carving stations. This setup can be expanded within limits to handle multiple spindle / multiple carving stations. As shown on this page, two spindles are mounted on a Techno CNC Router. All Techno, Inc. CNC Routers come standard with a controller that can easily be expanded to a 4th-axis setup.
