Adjustable Stroke Device With Cam
An adjustable stroke mechanism has a housing with a central axis and a wall enclosing a cavity. At least one counterweight is movably disposed within the cavity. A mounting assembly is disposed within the cavity. The mounting assembly has a workpiece attachment mechanism. A stroke adjustor couples the at least one counterweight with the mounting assembly. The stroke adjustor enables the counterweight and mounting assembly to move with respect to one another such that a distance between the counterweight and the mounting assembly is variably adjusted which, in turn, variably adjusts a stroke radius of the workpiece attachment mechanism with respect to the central axis of the housing.
MACHINE TOOL HAVING A BALANCING DEVICE
A machine tool having a drivetrain, which includes a tool shaft rotatably mounted on a drive support by means of a bearing assembly and a tool holder arranged on the tool shaft, wherein the tool shaft is rotationally drivable by a drive motor of the machine tool around a rotational axis, and wherein a balancing device is arranged on the tool shaft, which includes a guide body having at least one orbital path extending around the rotational axis and at least one balancing body movably mounted in the orbital path.
A DEVICE FOR CHANGING ABRADING PRODUCTS
The disclosed solution comprises a device for changing abrading products (30), the device (1) comprising a detacher (2) comprising a table (10), a blade (14) adapted to penetrate into between an abrading product (30) and the gripping means (34) of the abrading tool (4), and means (16, 18, 19) to co-planarly adjust the mutual distance (d) between the table (10) and the blade (14) to correspond to the thickness (t) of the abrading product (30) in the absence of the abrading product (30).

Linear motion rotary union
Provided is a linear movable rotary union including a driving shaft comprising a plurality of fluid supply paths; a hollow middle housing surrounding an outside of the driving shaft and comprising a plurality of first through holes in a sidewall; a plurality of first sealing members provided between the middle housing and the driving shaft to prevent leakage of a fluid; a hollow outer housing surrounding an outside of the middle housing and comprising a plurality of second through holes in a sidewall; and a plurality of second sealing members provided between the middle housing and the outer housing to prevent leakage of the fluid, and wherein the driving shaft is installed to be capable of rotational motion in the middle housing, and the middle housing is installed to be capable of reciprocating motion in an axial direction in the outer housing.
TRUING DEVICE FOR CIRCULAR TOOLS AND METHOD FOR MOUNTING/REMOVING CIRCULAR TOOLS
A truing device includes a housing and a truing mandrel (1) with a shaft (10) used to mount a circular tool having a concentric opening, in particular a grinding disc (3), and with a first bearing (11) fixed on the housing (4) and located in a first end region of the truing mandrel (1) The shaft (10) includes a hydraulic clamping device (20) having a chamber (21) containing hydraulic medium, to which a pre-clamping pressure can be applied with a preclamping element (23) The hydraulic clamping device is formed from a clamping section (22) lying above the chamber (21) in the radial direction and held in the shaft on both sides. The outer surface of the clamping section forms the clamping surface and which, when the hydraulic pressure in the chamber (21) increases, can be reversibly moved or bent outwards in the radial direction such that a radial clamping force can be exerted on the inner surface of the concentric opening of the circular tool penetrated by the clamping section (22). A method provides for mounting and removing a circular tool on the truing mandrel of a truing device of this kind.
ROBOTIC SANDING SYSTEMS AND METHODS
An end effector for a robotic sanding system includes a sanding head including a sander configured to sand a surface of a workpiece. A motor is operatively coupled to the sander. The motor is configured to rotate the sander to sand the surface of the workpiece. The motor includes a first central longitudinal axis. A coupler is configured to removably secure the end effector to an attachment interface of an arm of the robotic sanding system. The coupler includes a second central longitudinal axis. The first central longitudinal axis is offset from the second central longitudinal axis. One or more sensors are coupled to the sanding head. The one or more sensors are configured to detect presence of a metal within the predefined range.

SPINDLE UNIT
A region of a side surface of a tip part of a spindle, the region being opposed to an inside surface of a cover with a gap therebetween, is formed with a groove going round the spindle one time. At a location where the groove is formed, the sectional area of the gap between the tip part and the cover is enlarged. Hence, the gap between the tip part of the spindle and the cover can be expressed as a space (passage) in which a small sectional area and a space (expansion chamber) having a large sectional area are alternately disposed. If processing liquid containing processing swarf enters into the gap, the processing liquid is not likely to enter into the passage. Deposition of the swarf onto the tip part of the spindle is restrained, making it possible to reduce the frequency of cleaning of the tip part.
