In operation News Guaranteed function! 4 TruServices <strong>Journal</strong> 02|08 Freshly tapped from the water box // What the oil change is to the car — that’s what the water change is to the laser. But in contrast to engines, this change has to be made twice a year. Providing this quantity of water — 1,000 liters — is usually not so simple, particularly since handling large containers is difficult and water quality suffers during storage. That is why TRUMPF offers the “water box”. It makes up deionized water quickly, economically, in flawless quality. This unit is delivered with connector hoses and can be hooked up to the building’s water supply. With a water supply at normal hardness levels, it can produce almost 2,000 liters of deionized water. If customers have signed a maintenance contract with TRUMPF, then the service technician takes care of the water change. >> retrofit.tws@de.trumpf.com // Unpack, install, start. It is really as simple as it sounds. Bending Tools fabricated by TRUMPF are delivered with a function guarantee that reduces the user’s risk to zero. The technicians get involved right from the planning stage. Services include competent consulting either on the phone or on site and making up bending samples. The programming data for the machine controls are supplied with the tool, making installation a breeze. High demand has confirmed the value of the concept: At the end of September TRUMPF’s expanded production building in Pasching, Austria, was put into operation. >> abkantwerkzeuge@at.trumpf.com A U-shaped part manufactured in a single step thanks to a customengineered Bending Tool
A bag of tricks Grounding lugs in one clamping Michael Berger, expert for punching In many cases grounding lugs are pressed, welded or riveted, and that requires additional processing steps or touch-up work. The new five-fold multi-tool shows how different the situation can be when clamping is used. It is equipped with three punching inserts, an embossing insert and a reshaping insert to raise the plate, making for economical production of the grounding lugs. Three different dimensions can be made up with just a single change of tool position. Numerous applications will be found in the electronic industry and in mechanical and plant engineering. New and rugged cylindrical boot for the TruLaser Series 3000 Laser chamfering for easier handling // In the past, laser-cut edges were available only with hard, 90° corners. Handling is made simpler and safer with rounded corners — facilitating insertion in assembly openings, for example. And making that improvement is quite simple, starting right now. The TruMatic 7000 can now be used to finish laser-cut edges with an angle — or chamfer — on both sides. This is accomplished quickly, without touch-up work on a grinding machine, without changing the laser cutting parameters, and very quietly, as well. To do this, a groove with a root angle of 120° is first cut into the sheet metal. The laser beam, // Where a parts flap or disposal through the laser mounting console reaches its limits, that’s where the new MultiTool ejector unit simplifies the removal of small, laser-cut sheet metal parts with complex geometries. Application for a utility patent has been submitted for this new tool, intended for use with TRUMPF combination punching and laser cutting machines. It separates microjoints and ejects parts reliably through the die and into the waste container. The upper tool can be fitted with round or square cutting tools to match aimed at the bottom of the groove, cuts through the sheet metal. The result: a perfectly chamfered, laser-cut edge. >> truservices@de.trumpf.com MultiTool ejector for combination machines every part geometry. This makes it possible to produce both round and straight contours without having to change tools. The new MultiTool ejector is especially useful with parts featuring small and complex laser contours. Chamfered laser-cut edges for smoother handling >> technik.tooling@de.trumpf.com Armor for the laser beam MultiTool for simple displacement of scrap // A laser beam might be as strong as Hercules, but it does have an Achilles’ heel: It is susceptible to the effects of dirt particles as it passes among moving machinery components. Beginning this fall, the TruLaser Series 3000 is equipped with the shielding — previously available only for the Series 5000 — needed to eliminate this critical problem. The newly developed cylindrical boot offers two innovations at once. Its rounded shape eliminates holes at corners resulting from material fatigue while the new, injection-molded plastic material is significantly more rugged. >> retrofit.tws@de.trumpf.com TruServices <strong>Journal</strong> 02|08 5
