AICON, new tube optical measuring machine 16 cameras allow accurate scanning in seconds

Leku-Ona already has a new machine (AICON) to improve the processes of measuring and manufacturing pipes. 16 cameras allow accurate scanning in seconds, generating the exact information to be able to execute production immediately. PRECISION, RAPIDITY AND QUALITY. The new machine acquired by Leku-Ona, allows a non-contact measuring system, merely requires that the tube to be measured is placed in an optical measuring cell. Sixteen high-resolution digital cameras with latest GigE technology accurately measure the tube’s geometry in a few seconds.


The tube does not need to be moved. The geometry is reported in an easily understandable way that is as sheath tolerance. The measuring range of TubeInspect P16 is 2,600 mm x 1,250 mm x 700 mm and this can be extended by repositioning the tube. TubeInspect P16 measures tubes with diameters ranging from 3 mm to 200 mm. Bends between 1° and 340° can also be measured easily. TubeInspect P16 has a newly added capability of measuring tubes with connected bends or with flexible parts.

TubeInspect P16 is also able to measure tubes with hose sections, shaped hoses, and hoses with fixtures or mounting attachments. Thus AICON extends the spectrum of optical measurement applications significantly. Tube measurements can be compared with a previously recorded sample part or with an imported CAD model.

Once the measurement is made in seconds, the information collected is sent directly to the tube production machine that works quickly and precisely.

New FASTER multi-connectors solution for forestry and recycling cranes The new application of the MULTIFASTER facilitates the handling and dismantling of the cranes in vehicles to speed up the operations of loading and unloading bulky materials

For more than 30 years, Leku-Ona has been the exclusive distributor in Spain and Portugal of products by FASTER®, a company recognised worldwide for its state-of-the-art and reliable couplings and quick connectors.

The Italian brand remains at the forefront when it comes to offering effective solutions adapted to the requirements of different markets, in this case that of forestry and recycling cranes.

SPECIFIC REQUIREMENTS FOR FORESTRY AND RECYCLING CRANES

It is very common to find trucks equipped with cranes to transport wood, scrap and other bulky materials. In these situations, the manoeuvres that are carried out with these extremely bulky materials require the dismantling and moving of the crane to provide more freedom of movement.

To perform this operation, the cranes are equipped with hydraulic or mechanical jacks, but in order to carry out the operation safely, easily and quickly there are several solutions on the market that include the use of quick-release hydraulic couplings.

Wood transport and haulage (and scrap recycling business) is many times performed with dedicated trucks, equipped with cranes.

Sometime, in order to load longer logs, increasing transport capacity, the crane has to be disassembled and left on ground (see above picture on the right).

To perform this operation the cranes are tipically equipped with Hydraulic or mechanic jacks and to make the operation safe, easy and quick there are several solutions on the market, using Quick Release Couplings.

LOAM (Leku-Ona Additive Manufacturing) was created in 2017 in Itziar-Deba, Gipuzkoa (Basque Country – Spain), with the backing of the group Leku-Ona Global Solutions and with the aim of offering additive design and manufacturing services.

Using the latest FDM® printing technology, the company guarantees its customers parts of high quality, both for prototyping and for final use, adapted to different sectors and achieving lighter, more efficient and faster production components than those obtained in conventional production.

FDM technology is a manufacturing process used for the modelling of prototypes and small-scale production. Fused deposition modelling uses an additive technique, depositing the material in layers to form the part. A plastic or metal filament that is initially stored in rolls is introduced into a nozzle. The nozzle is at a temperature above the melting point of the material and can be moved over three axes, being controlled electronically.

For this purpose, LOAM has the largest and most powerful industrial 3D printer on the market, the Stratasys Fortus 900mc, which incorporates the latest innovative technologies in order to produce precise and functional parts. It has a printing tray with a size of up to 914x609x914, allowing for the manufacture of large, customised parts with a wide range of possibilities.

Assembly Instructions

Here there are the assembly instructions for DIN 2353 fittings manufactured and marketed by NEXO FITTINGS. It is recommended to use pre-assembly tools.

 

1.- Tube preparation

Cut the tube square (do not use a pipe cutter). An angular offset of 0,5° is permissible.

 

Lightly debut the tube ends and clean the tube. The maximum permitted chamfer is 0.02 x 45 deg. The clamping area must be clean and free of any chips, dirt, grease, oiland paint.

 

 

2.- Tube preparation

Lightly lubricate. Immediately proceed with the assembly in order to avoid exposure to contamination.

 

 

Consecutively put the union nut first and then the cutting ring onto the tube end. Pay attention to the correct alignment of the cutting ring: The cutting edges have to face to the tube end.

 

Carefully insert the tube end into the 24° taper of the final assembly stud and push it firmly against the inner stop. The tube must be held in this position during the entire assembly process in order to avoid faulty assembly.

Difficult mounting conditions or larger sizes may require the use of a vise.

 

Press the pipe firmly against the stop in the coupling body. Tighten the nut with a wrench until no further tightening is possible. Hold coupling body steady with a wrench.

 

 

Checking: Slacken the nut and push back. Check that the gap between coupling body and rind is closed.

 

Repeated Assembly: Reassemble the con- nection using the same force as final as- sembly. This should be done each time the connection is reassembled.

 

If you have any doubts regarding assembly or want to obtain the PDF catalogue for the different types of fittings provided by Nexo Fittings (connectors, male or female thread, adjustable 24° swivel connector and O-ring, tubular, etc.) do not hesitate to contact the brand using the email leku-ona@leku-ona.com or through
