Individually, the CoroDrill 462 offers high performance hole making up to 3.00 mm. Ideal for drilling both blind and through holes, the drill is capable of machining a variety of ISO materials, including ISO P, M, K, N, S, O and H. With a drill depth of 6xD, the CoroDrill 462 offers manufacturers a versatile drilling solution.

All CUT P Pro Series machines optimize production for electronics, automotive, medical and mold and die manufacturers with more than 600 pre-programmed cutting processes. On the CUT P 550 Pro, these cover a wide range of parts from less than 0.04" to 15.75" (less than 1 mm to 400 mm) in height and weights up to 3,307 lb (1,500 kg), in materials such as steel, carbide, copper, aluminum, titanium, polycrystalline diamond (PCD) and graphite.

PI's hexapod family is growing with the addition of H-811.I2V vacuum hexapod. With a load capacity of 5kg and linear travel ranges up to 34mm and rotary ranges up to 42°, the new hexapod provides very high resolution and repeatability ±0.06µm.

Koma Precision Inc., a provider and distributor of rotary tables, angle heads, live tools, tool presetters, swiss tools, and other precision machine tooling, has expanded its sales organization by naming two new managers.

Hexagon MyQuality provides access to the highest level of industry know-how provided by road tested applications engineers and inspection programmers serving a wide range of industries including aerospace, automotive, power generation, and medical. MyQuality was designed to build a strategic bridge between Hexagon and its customers to support changing quality plans or further automate part inspection programs. Contract programming services can include custom operator interfaces including touch-screens, interfaces for automation and customized logic routines, PC-DMIS inspection routines, barcode reader device integration, customized reporting, as well as programming parts with intricate geometries, difficult surfaces, or hard to reach features.

The LFT-500 Series provides a cost-effective way to provide this type of enhanced process capability into your own facility. When functionally trimming, the particular parameter is continuously measured and compared with the set value. Once the set value is reached, the laser cut stops automatically. Resistance, voltage, current, frequency – almost all output signals can be adjusted to their target value via the LFT-500 Series tool, in conjunction with appropriate measuring equipment. Specifically built to target US based development groups who need tools for prototyping and pilot production, the platform provides a host of options including customized fixturing and test hardware.

The AgieCharmilles CUT P Pro series of wire-cutting EDM machines is designed for increased productivity, always available and ideal for every application with the largest technology database. The series includes the CUT P 350 Pro, the 550 Pro and the 800 Pro with robust designs and intuitive HMI as well as several automation options for lights- out operation.n

The Microlution ML-5 is optimized for micro-scale holemaking and fine cutting, which it performs without creating any heat-affected zones. The machine's compact, high- performance, ultrafast femto laser reduces cycle times and tooling costs to enable the production of precision parts in seconds.

The NXT grinder is a versatile 5-axis CNC machine with a small footprint, large grind zone and a modular design that quickly adapts to demanding application requirements. ESPRIT uses a digital twin of the manufacturing envelope to simplify the programming process and deliver edit-free G-code. Customers that already have ESPRIT can add the Star Cutter NXT's digital machine package to their existing license and program the NXT using the software they already own.

Rollomatic, the original inventor of pinch/peel grinding machines, showcased a new model of pinch/peel machine at the recent Eastec show that can perform non-round grinding of punches and pins.

Counterfeiting is a challenging problem for bearing manufacturers. Laser marking is one way to overcome this problem.
