The James Engineering Advantage

Our true industry advantages can be found in our Sector Style Tooling, Work-Holding devices, programs and the craftsmanship of our machines.

Types of Processing

Nearly every part manufactured has a burr. James Engineering has many different methods of processing parts. Each method will produce one of four results.

Types of Cutting Tools Available

James Engineering offers the largest range of cutting tools available in the industry, always anticipating the needs of our customers.

Sector Style Tooling

James Engineering is the creator of Sector Style tooling, an innovative approach to enhancing versatility and performance. Sector tooling mounts onto a circular Sector ring. The ring is concentric to the work piece. As a result, the Sector tooling can move around the part without altering the setup.

Sector Assembly The James Engineering Sector Assembly is designed specifically for isolated movement providing a high rate of adjustment and flexibility to the end user. Other forms of tooling only allow movement of more than one axis by loosening a single brake or stop. The net result is independent adjustability of each axis without affecting the rest, a significant advantage in a multi-axis machine.
Rocker Assembly Through special geometries and technologies, James Engineering has created a mechanism capable of following most paths in front of it; without the use of complicated PLC or computer programs. Our design allows the cutting tool to follow the path ahead of it just the same as a cars suspension follows the road. As the road falls away from the car, the tire lowers to maintain contact and as the road rises, the tire raises. In the same way, our rockers allow the tooling to adjust, actively and with aids, to the changing paths ahead of it.
Rotary Table with Chuck Assembly The rotary table is constructed of one half inch aluminum. This keeps the weight to a minimum while still maintaining durability. The table is capable of starting and stopping within one percent of one revolution; or three degrees. The table can be fitted with a variety of work-holding devices. Each device can be removed and replaced in moments.

Work-Holding Devices

Chuck Assembly The chuck assembly is the most common arrangement found in the industry with a three-finger, self-centering mechanism. This chuck assembly can grip ID or OD parts with just the toggle of a switch on the control panel.
Collet Assembly Manual and automatic collet assemblies are also available. Either collet can be ordered for ID or OD gripping. Each collet assembly uses a urethane collet to expand or compress and grip the part. Urethane is used instead of steel. This guarantees that clamping marks will not be left on the part.

Convenient Operator Interface

James Engineering has realized that the machine and how it functions must be straight-forward and intuitive. This philosophy was also implemented into our PLC (Programmable Logic Controller) technology (aka HMI or operator interface).

Over our years of business we have refined our processes to make setups and adjustments effortless. When the PLC was introduced into our systems, we realized that this item had the potential to create lots of confusion. With our relationships with General Motors, General Electric, Caterpillar and other large companies, we have been able to refine our PLC technology to a level that is unmatched.

Tool Selection

With simple screens, the operator can quickly turn on or off the desired tools and define the start and stop points. This is not programming with a computer that requires special software. It is simply values that the operator enters into the PLC, by hand, determining when the selected tool start and stop.

Concurrent and/or Simultaneous Operation

With the PLC and the ability to define the start and stop points, the operator can create concurrent and/or simultaneous operations.

As an example, tool one and two could be set to start at the same point while tool three starts half way thru one and two’s cycle. Tool one and two can shut off, leaving tool three to run another revolution. When tool three stops, tool four can start and run two more revolutions. All the while the wash cycle (optional on certain equipment) came on with tool two and shut off half way thru tool three.

Multi-Program Switch

With this feature, the operator can create two different programs (two different sets of variables) stored into the PLC. Each variable can be stored to the corresponding program; like: the time each tool runs, which tools are on, which way the rotary table turns, etc.

For example, if the operator wishes to run two parts with the same setup, but with different PLC programs, then the operator can select between the two different programs.

This is highly effective for customers who prefer to flip the part. Since the part will have burrs on one side of the part and not the other, the operator will run program A on the first side, flip the part and select program B.
