Emuge-Franken USA and Grob Systems Inc. have formed a strategic partnership to provide advanced 5-axis solutions, expertise and support to customers.

The E-709 compact digital piezo servo controller / amplifier and driver was designed providing 20kHz sampling rate, twice the power of its predecessor along with multiple times is positioning resolution. When used in image processing, scanning and microscopy applications, its advanced features such as high-performance linearization, high speed tracking, and PI's unique F3 capability (Fast Focus & Freeze) come in handy.

Methods Machine Tools Inc. targets standard automation packages for its work cells.

JR Machine Inc. uses cellular machining to add valueto customers' components while boosting the bottom line.

The UNE series of gundrilling machines are a good fit for high-volume/low-mix or low-volume/high-mix manufacturing environments.

The Mikron MILL E 500 U's powerful 20,000-rpm Step-Tec spindle tackles both rough milling and drilling operations and increases metal removal rates by 20 percent over previous models. Its rigid, stable C-frame cast iron construction reduces vibrations for increased precision and repeatability, while large guideways, a double side-supported rotary table and optimized chip evacuation enhance reliability and part quality.

Mastercam is celebrating the 10th anniversary of CNC Software Europe, SA. The Switzerland-based office was opened in April 2011.

The company offers an expanded line of live and static tools for Swiss-type CNC automatic lathes.

The machine places 128 spindles precisely and very close to center. A unique gearless drive is key to making it happen, not only getting each spindle as close as possible, but ensuring rigid performance to avoid backlash. The result is high-quality threads with no lag or out of tolerance thread forms due to gear train play that can occur using a geared head.

The system features evaluation technology based on artificial intelligence (AI), which allows the highest accuracy to be achieved with increased robustness.
