Machining (CNC)

MP Systems has launched a new coolant filtration system designed to prevent chips from accumulating inside a CNC machine tool’s coolant tank and causing coolant starvation of the machine tool’s flood pump and the high pressure coolant pump.

CGTech offers its latest versions of VERICUT and composites programming (VCP) and simulation software. The aerospace industry continues to push for lighter, faster and more cost-effective parts. To support these goals, VCP now puts more power into user’s hands.

MecSoft Corp. has licensed MachineWorks’ cloud-computing technology. MachineWorks Ltd. is a provider of component software for CNC simulation, verification and polygon-mesh modeling. The new cloud-based technology provides CNC manufacturers with a solution for running simulation on a server whilst displaying the results on one or more remote clients.

The Hurco BX40Ui 5-axis CNC double-column machining center, with trunnion table mounted along the Y-axis, combines performance and flexibility. The ladder structure and double-column design provides extreme rigidity and outstanding support to the head casting.

Manufacturers struggling to get CNC machines to communicate directly with their collaborative robot now have a solution: VersaBuilt’s CNC Communication URCap is a simple yet powerful interface for machine tending applications with Universal Robots. The URCap allows a UR cobot to easily execute any machining program stored on the CNC directly through the cobot’s own teach pendant.

As a market-leading photo chemical etching specialist for over 50 years, Precision Micro has developed etchant chemistries and processes that make etching possible on a wide range of metals. Stainless steel, however, remains the number one choice for many of the company’s customers due to its versatility, the numerous grades available, and the vast array of finishes. Precision Micro etches more than two million steel and stainless steel components each month, making it the largest sheet etching company in Europe.

Breathe new life into your trusted machines that are mechanically sound but electrically obsolete. Get a Drake CS:R (Control System Renewal) and eliminate the headache of outdated controls and motors that are no longer supported. Drake’s CS:R package is an economical way to return machines that are still good mechanically, but have failure-prone controls, to higher productivity.

The APX drill from Allied Machine & Engineering delivers the strength and versatility needed in machining oil and gas field equipment. This heavy-duty drill allows for higher spindle speeds and is designed to take advantage of the power curve on modern CNC machines for maximum penetration rates in deep hole drilling.
