To serve the needs of moldmakers and manufacturers that demand the highest levels of productivity and design quality for surface texturing applications, GF Machining Solutions has introduced its new AgieCharmilles LASER S series.
Vision Engineering's DRV (Deep Reality Viewer) digital 3D stereoscopic display technology creates stereo high-definition 3D images without using a monitor or requiring operators to wear headsets or specialist glasses because images "float" in front of a mirror.
OSSEO, MINNESOTA — Die Technology, Inc., a machining services and tooling manufacturer, announced today the creation of its new sister company, Nanotech Precision, LLC.
Live tooling, as the name implies, is specifically driven by the CNC and the turret of various spindle and powered subspindle configurations on CNC lathes to perform various operations while the workpiece remains in orientation to the main spindle.
When you read this, 40 years will have already passed since the discovery of spark erosion for machining polycrystalline cutting materials. Lach Diamant named this process "spark grinding," which accompanied the development of proprietary machines. Polycrystalline diamond tools conquered a multiple-application market traditionally reserved for carbides. Diamonds, baked under pressure and heat during synthesis, made this possible.
Mitutoyo Corp. announces the release of the TAGLENS series of products. Suitable for demanding inspection applications such as noncontact ultrahigh-speed inspection systems, the TAGLENS series reduces the need for mechanical focusing modules. Thanks to its capabilities, the TAGLENS is expected to transform the future of inspection and significantly increase productivity.
Whether traditional or new manufacturing processes are involved, none of the available technologies make it possible to produce component surface finishes in the required quality. Process steps such as deburring, rounding and cleaning, as well as targeted functional or decorative surface finishing, are thus indispensable.
Industry 4.0 is making inroads into several industrial sectors, creating massive demand for measurement and inspection technologies offering superior reliability precision, and stability. There has been a quantum leap in growth of the global industrial landscape, resulting in higher demands for high-quality precision measuring tools for reduced turnaround time and costs.
Coating, adhesive bonding, sealing, painting – these are just some manufacturing operations calling for profoundly clean, and sometimes activated, part surfaces. It is with these requirements in mind that Ecoclean has developed a set of new cleaning solutions. One of them combines wet chemical and low-pressure plasma cleaning in a single machine.
Comau introduces MATE, its first innovative wearable exoskeleton. MATE has been designed to improve work quality in an efficient and highly ergonomic manner by providing consistent and advanced movement assistance during prolonged overhead, as well as daily tasks.
