This Rush Machinery video offers an overview of the company’s CH-CM0406 Cut-Prepoint-Chamfer Machine, which converts full length blank carbide rods into tool blanks that are ready for fluting and finishing grinding. It cuts rod blanks from 1/8" to 1-1/64" diameter to length, and can prepoint or chamfer one or both ends.
The Okuma V920EX vertical lathe increases productivity by providing stable machining of thin and odd-shaped workpieces. With a max turning diameter of 36.22 inches and max turning height of 33.86 inches, this machine is capable of performing powerful, heavy-duty cuts, while the vertical orientation is the ideal platform for running thin-walled parts without distortion. The box-type base and column make a highly dependable, highly rigid structure and the headstock with flange construction minimizes the effects of thermal deformation and vibration, which ensures stable, accurate cutting.
