C&B Machinery is proud to support the reshoring of a 30” Double Disc Grinding Machine for a major U.S. automotive manufacturer’s transmission plant. Originally installed in an overseas facility, this machine is now being brought back to the U.S., where it will be retooled, reautomated, and upgraded to enhance performance and efficiency for a Michigan-based production program.
Index Corporation has announced that Michael Huggett will succeed Cris Taylor as the company’s President & CEO. Index has also announced a restructuring of its sales team that includes the addition of three new members and reorganization of its territories. Bryan Young has joined the company as National Sales Manager, while John Kemezis and Jason Shorette have joined as Regional Sales Representatives.
The two ZFA series gear grinders are designed to perform high-speed and high-precision finish machining on gears. The two models are each designed for a different gear size range, with ZFA160 capable of handling gears with an external diameter of up to 160 mm, and ZFA260 accommodating gears with an external diameter of up to 260 mm. Capable of meeting the increasingly sophisticated users’ needs, both ZFA160 and ZFA260 can mass-produce gears with a gear accuracy level equivalent to ISO 3 (JIS level N3).
