October 19 – 22nd at Capital Machine’s Atlanta Technology & Training Center, Atlanta, GA

 

There are many benefits in attending Advances in Precision Fabricating, including several unique technologies on demo. Including the Safan E-brake 35-1250 Mini Cell, Yaskawa material handling robot, Capital Robotics Fusion Arc featuring the AR2010 arc welding robot with dual headstocks, Mazak Optonics OPTIPLEX FIBER III 10kW Laser, and so much more! Let’s not forget, the large number of industry experts on-site to address all your fabricating and robotic welding needs.

Yaskawa America, Inc. (previously known as Motoman) is a new edition to the Capital family of top-tier builders. From this recent partnership, Capital will be offering Yaskawa solutions for arc welding, material handling and collaborative arc welding.

Attending this event will arm attendees with the knowledge and technology to keep their businesses moving forward in times of uncertainty with live demos from industry-leading builders. Difficulties finding and maintaining qualified welders, press brake operators and skilled machine technicians is only getting more difficult and shows no sign of improvement. See how Capital Machine can help your company increase efficiencies and accuracies to compete in the future.

In addition to Yaskawa, SafanDarley and Mazak, Capital will also be showcasing the following world-class builders, OMAX Waterjet Cutting, Accurpress Hydraulic Press Brake, Capital Robotics, WILA Tooling, Euromac CNC Punching, Davi Plate Rolls, Messer Plasma and Oxyfuel Cutting Machine, Wilson Tools, OTC DAIHEN, Timesavers Finishing, Hydmech Band Saw and more.

We will be hosting two full-days Tuesday, October 19th and Wednesday, October 20th from 9–4pm. Capital is offering dedicated time slots for customers preferring more privacy and individual attention, on Thursday and Friday (October 21 and 22nd). We encourage you to contact your salesman to reserve a spot, as they tend to fill up quickly.

Don’t miss out on this opportunity to see many machines and technologies by prominent industry builders all under one roof, LIVE and In-Person! You can download the show brochure by clicking here.

In the latest edition of The Fabricator, Dan Davis takes us into the world of metal fabricating at NASA with Spencer Wells, whose actual title is mechanical engineering technician, in the Prototype Development Laboratory (PDL) at the Kennedy Space Center in Florida.

“We’re far from a production shop here,” Wells said. “We’re basically a one-stop shop for prototyping. That’s why we have so many capabilities.

“So, if you had engineers or scientists with an idea or a concept that needed to be worked through and it involved sheet metal or even composites that required fabricating, machining, or electrical work, they would have to go to the outside world and find a company to work on each of those areas. You would have to deal with multiple businesses. Instead, they come here. We work through all of those problems and get those engineers and scientists what they need.”

When the search began for a new press brake, one of Wells’ co-workers suggested an electric brake, something he had seen at a tradeshow. Wells said he didn’t have any experience with that type of press brake, but he was intrigued to learn more. When he began to see this type of equipment in action, he liked what he saw.

“We thought with this type of press brake and with new software, it was going to allow us to do first part, right part every time,” Wells said.

Capital Machine Technologies introduced Wells to the SafanDarley E-Brake, giving Wells the reassurance that he can bend the “first part… right part.”

“We all have different things that we need to do around here. I don’t necessarily have a day to set up the press brake and try to get the right bend for one or two parts,” Wells said. “I need to be confident in the software and the press brake so when I punch in the numbers, I can go over to the press brake and bend one part and have it right.”
