IndustryArena News - March 2026

NewsletterMarch ´26
The first warm days of the year have already heralded the arrival of spring in our part of the country. Nature is gradually awakening from its winter slumber with renewed energy, and we are pleased to present our spring-themed IndustryArena newsletter in March – packed with fresh ideas, new perspectives, and flourishing news!

Learn more about retrofitting the TD 110 tool breakage detector from Heidenhain, our newest business member Fehlmann, exciting video highlights and unanswered forum threads worth reading. Of course, BuyMachines range of machinery is also included.
Retrofitting the TD 110 tool breakage detector from HEIDENHAIN: Save time, reduce cost and improve process reliability

Perform in-process breakage inspection for tools with diameters of at least 0.4 mm and save up to six seconds for each tool change compared with split-laser systems. The contact-free, inductive TD 110 tool breakage detector senses a length change of 2 mm of fast-moving, rotating tools. It can be retrofitted inside the work envelope of nearly any machine tool. If the switching signal doesn’t arrive over the touch-probe interface, then the control can trigger an alert, stop the program or perform a user-defined reaction. Save time and money while increasing your process reliability.
