Siemens is the world leader for gearless wrap-around (ring) motors.Siemens pioneered gearless drive technology utilizing cyclo-converter drives (CCV) and has supplied the world's largest system - a 30,000 HP, 40 foot diameter gearless drive. info@heavymachineryinfo.com (Article Admin) Wed, 21 Feb 2007 00:00:00 -0600 http://www.heavymachineryinfo.com/articles/11/1/How-to-Buy-a-Drilling-Machine/How-to-Buy-a-Drilling-Machine.html Drilling machines are generally characterized by means of rotating a cutting tool or advancing it along its own axis into a stationary workpiece to produce a hole near or equal to the size of the cutting tool. info@heavymachineryinfo.com (Article Admin) Mon, 15 Jan 2007 00:00:00 -0600 http://www.heavymachineryinfo.com/articles/10/1/The-Fonly-Drilling-Machine/The-Fonly-Drilling-Machine.html The "Fonly" family was designed by Peter Clark to provide quality machine tools at a low cost for the model maker working in small scales, particularly 2mm/ft. The family includes a lathe with light milling capabilities and a drilling machine. Each one is powered by a Minicraft Buffalo or similar mini-drill. If you have been to IMREX, or various Association events over the last three years you may have seen an example in action. The precision in the machines comes from alignment after the components are produced, so construction does not require special accurate machinery. info@heavymachineryinfo.com (Article Admin) Tue, 27 Jan 2004 00:00:00 -0600
