The machining equipment ULTRASONIC 30 LINEAR on 5 axes is equipped with Sinumerik 840D solutionline numerical control and 3D control technology through the programming and simulating module ShopMill and it can machine complex geometry parts throughout various methods such as milling, drilling, boring, threading, for metal and non-metal materials. The machine is equipped with an ultrasound generator. When it’s activated, the ultrasounds propagate to the tool holder, and by doing that to the normal rotatory movement of the tool is added a supplementary axial oscillation, of the milling tool (like a hammering of the part’s surface), needed in the machining of the brittle materials. The quality of the machined surfaces is greater. The machining forces are lowered and so the finishing process of the surfaces is a better quality one. Depending on the material’s properties, the surfaces can have a roughness under 0.1 microns. The machine integrates on a single machine more procedures such as normal milling (HSC) ultrasound milling (HSK), which allows the machining of a big variety of materials.

Muffle furnace suited for a large number of processes in the field of material research and heat treatment. Volume: 2 liters Tmax: 1100°C (heating from two sides by ceramic heating plates) Electronic controller for temperature (resolution 1°C) and time (resolution 1 minute).

The CTX 310 ECOLINE turning machine is an horizontal one, with a maximum rotation diameter of 330mm (260mm above the transversal sledge) and turning machining possibilities of revolution parts, to which you can add the advantages of using rotative tools, fixed and moved by a turret with horizontal AX with 12 holders with the lathe is equipped, using the C axis CNC. The lathe is equipped with Sinumerik 840D CNC solutionline, providing a 3D control technology, by module ShopTurn. The maximum diameter the lathe can have is 200 mm; stroke of X axis (the diameter) is maximum 180 mm; stroke of Z axis (length) is maximum 400 mm; advance work on X and Z is up to 20 m/min; maximum speed is 5000 rev/min; positioning accuracy is 15 microns. The machine can be controlled directly from the control with which it is equipped, or by using the postprocessor which connects with computer, allowing the pieces, modeled in 3D in Catia or SolidWoks, which were previously generated and simulated CNC program, using Catia Machining and dedicated postprocessor, developed specifically for this machine.

Components of the system: rotavapor, heating bath (4 liters), condenser, vapor duct, vacuum seal, evaporating flask (1 liter), receiving flask (1 liter), flask holder, vapor temperature sensor, vacuum pump, circulator, digital controller for temperature / pressure.

The load unit is a stand-alone testing structure. It consists of the following components: – load frame; – crosshead lifts; – manifold; – actuators; – servo-valves; – accumulators; – two or more transducers. Graph command – response for displacement angle from: flexion-extension, abduction-adduction, rotation interne-rotation externe as function of time. The multiaxial dynamic testing system for mechanical parts, MTS Bionix, is equipped with: -subsystem for testing hip implants (allows testing of orthopedic hip implants in terms of tribological behavior), -traction subsystem, -compression subsystem, -bending subsystem. The procedure to install a specimen varies due to the variety of test fixtures, grips, and the type of specimen being installed.

Laboratory centrifuge of general use – separation of solid-liquid phases. Max. Capacity: 4 x 100 mL Max. speed: 984 g / 2000 rpm.

The 3D Exascan portable scanner is a portable, optical, data acquisition system that captures every detail and provides high resolution exact geometries for an accurate representation of the scanned item. The scanning process is of the plug & play type. It uses the triangulation method to determine its position relative to the part in real time. It is a data acquisition system, and its own positioning system at the same time.

High speed micro-centrifuge with fast cooling of the rotor and low energy consumption. Capacity: 24 x 1.5 / 2 mL, 18 x 5 mL Max. speed: 21380 g / 15000 rpm Dimensions: 280 x 364 x 266 mm
