Helios Gear Products will demonstrate multiple gear manufacturing solutions at the Motion + Power Technology Expo (MPT Expo) in Detroit at Cobo Center, October 15–17, 2019. Gear manufacturers can see the company’s latest machines and tools for hobbing, deburring, grinding, inspection and more.
“Helios equips manufacturers for profitable gear production with solutions such as the Helios Hera series of CNC gear hobbing machines from YG Tech,” said a company spokesperson. “Hera machines offer several attractive features: FANUC or Siemens CNC; highspeed hob heads with automatic retraction during power failure; direct-drive torque motors; friendly dialog programming for easy operating and quick training; re-hobbing (skiving); enhanced construction and components; and compact footprint.”
Helios will show the Hera 90 CNC gear hobbing machine, which features a unified, versatile gantry automation system designed for easy and productive hobbing of spur gears, helical gears and splines. It also features a highswivel head for worm and thread milling. “Manufacturers of parts up to 90 mm (3.543 inches) diameter and 3 module (8.5 DP) should visit the Helios booth to see the machine in action,” said the spokesperson.
Hera 350 CNC gear hobbing machine will also be displayed. With the series’ same high-quality feature set, the Hera 350 is designed to enable profitable vertical hobbing of spur gears, helical gears and other hobbed profiles. The machine is rated at 6 module (4.3 DP) and 350 mm (13.780”) diameter for automatic loading (additional capacity is available for manually loaded parts).
On display at the MPT Expo will also be the Helios TM 200-R3 gear deburring machine from Tecnomacchine. This machine deburrs parts up to 200 mm (7.874”) diameter with high-speed tool spindles. “With five workstations and a unified, flexible automation system, the TM 200-R3 offers manufacturers a productive brushing, deburring and/or chamfering solution, offering consistent quality and reclaimed labor,” said the spokesperson. This machine is designed to produce deburred parts in as little as every 20 seconds.
Lastly, as part of Helios’s partnership with Kapp Technologies, the PGM 165 gear inspection machine will also be demonstrated. This CNC analytical measuring machine can inspect parts up to 180 mm (7.087”) diameter using Renishaw 3D probe technology and Penta Gear Metrology software.
Helios also offers cutting and abrasive tools, including hobs, milling cutters, shaper cutters, generating grinding wheels, form grinding wheels, bevel gear grinding cups, diamond dressing gears and more. Helios services include gear cutting tool resharpening and recoating, contract inspection and application engineering.
