that include fully automated
cleaning and a magnetic reclaim
unit. Available in three different
sizes, the Auto ltrex range is ideal
for most ferrous machining
applications such as grinding,
honing, lapping, forming and
quenching FiltraMag+ an offline
ltration system for
cleaning oils and coolants
is simple and versatile. It
features the high
performance FiltraMag+
magnetic lter in a
convenient ‘plug and play’
unit, offering effective sub-micron
ltration with the advantage that it
can be moved easily from machine to
machine Workshop Tools, which
includes magnetic pick up devices,
trays and swarf wands, will be
present. The range also includes the
Heritage collection of magnets and
pot magnets, as well as several
new additions, including
magnetic pick-up and retrieval
tools, and workshop products.

#structural_steelworking – Ficep UK,
Stand 6-330 The rst UK
demonstrations of Valiant incorporating the
SN100 saw will hold the limelight, but a
range of machinery that has made the
company such a household name in the
steel processing sector and the go-to brand
for companies across the UK will also
complete the stand exhibits in this, Ficep
UK’s 20th anniversary year Valiant is the
latest evolution in Ficep’s beam lines
range. It is a new three-spindle system for
the processing of the complete range of
rolled structural steel shapes, available in
ve size models.

Floyd Automatic Tooling, Stand 20-472
A number of Schaublin developments will
be on show – the patent-pending PR25
quick-change collet system; SRS range of
collet clamping heads that feature unique
precision runout adjustment; the
company’s HSK A, HSK C and HSK E
toolholders; cylindrical cutting tools; and a
diverse range of quick-release clamping
heads for axial drawback
collet chucks will
all be elements of the
stand. Live
demonstrations on
machines provided by
Star Micronics GB,
Tornos Technologies
UK and Citizen
Machinery UK will
support real-life
applications SRS
collet clamping heads
with their unique precision
runout adjustment system
support repeatability within
2 micron. Use of the SRS system
for grinding machines, using W or
B type draw type collets, will be a
stand feature. The SRS system is
said to be “an exciting prospect
capable of enhancing the capability
for tool grinding shops” PR25
quick-change collet system for
clamping drills, end-mills, reamers
and other cutting tools is ideal for
production cutting tool
manufacturers that require frequent collet
changes. The system boasts no on-machine
changes, minimal run-out, low-wear and
minimal run-out. Schaublin precision W and
B type collets are available Schaublin HSK
A, HSK C and HSK E toolholders ensure
optimal toolholding precision when working
on high speed machining and grinding
centres, transfer machines and other highend
machine tools that demand the utmost
in precision with high clamping forces
Quick-release clamping heads for axial
draw-back collet chucks have serrated
clamping heads that offer easy set-up, high
rigidity levels and impressive clamping
forces. For more sensitive parts, precision
polished clamping heads are available.
the UK sliding-head sector, the Hanwha
range is said already to be disrupting the
market. Features supporting this include the
capacity for larger diameter bars than rival
machines, the higher power spindles (up to
23 kW) and driven tool power, and build
quality, all provided at a far more attractive
price point than competitor machines. The
Hanwha XD26II will provide proof. FANUC
32i-B CNC or Siemens 828D CNC can be
tted to this machine that can switch rapidly
from guide bush to non-guide bush operation.
With a 26 mm bar capacity and a 6,000 rpm
5.5 kW spindle motor that is complemented
by an 8,000 rpm 2.2 kW sub-spindle, the new
Hanwha XD26II offers power, precision and
exibility. Tooling con gurations take in ve
OD turning tools, an additional 10 front and
back-working tools, ve driven cross-wise tool
stations and also two driven and two static
tooling stations for the sub-spindle, plus a
gun-drilling station. With the con gurable tool
platens and positions, the Hanwha XD26II
offers fast set-up times, a spacious work
envelope with plentiful operator access and,
most importantly, kinematics that position all
tool stations close to the workpiece for
unbeatable productivity rates. Options take in
part and chip conveyors through to oil and
mist chillers, gripper units, powered guide
bush systems, tool and tap breakage
detection, length measuring units and more.
