Mazak Corp.'s HCN-6800 is a heavy-duty horizontal machining center that combines advanced technology and value with a high level of performance and productivity for large-part machining. Equipped with the Mazatrol SmoothG CNC, the machine's advanced programming features and functions offer ease of use, speed and further enhanced machine performance.

Mazak offers the HCN-5000 horizontal machining center with the company's Multi-Pallet Pool (MPP) system. Thanks to the compact MPP system, shops that lack the floor space necessary to accommodate a conventional linear horizontal pallet stocker now have the ability to achieve continuous unmanned, lights-out operations.

The high-speed Mazak FJV-35/80 double-column vertical machining center offers high precision over extended periods of operation with enhanced performance, Intelligent Functions and rigid machine construction. Suitable for a wide range of industries, including aerospace, construction, die and mold, and heavy machine, the versatile FJV-35/80 accommodates up to 6,614 lbs. on a 88.19" x 29.53" work table.

Machine shops looking for a "second-op" machine can depend on Palmgren's vertical machining center for a compact solution. The 7-inch by 24.5-inch center is ideal for production lines, short runs, one-offs and prototyping.

Siemens' new Sinumerik MC controller is a universal, open, industrial PC-based CNC system. Its optimized motion control, high-performance automation and integrated Windows 10 operating system make it a suitable control for fabrication and specialty machines, including woodworking, stone-cutting, laser and even conventional basic grinding machines.

Camfil APC introduces the Gold Series X-Flo Package (GSXP) dust and fume collectors designed for fast, easy integration with CNC laser and plasma cutting systems. The GSXP collector is built on core technology that has been proven in the field for more than 20 years with the original Gold Series collector.

Caron Engineering's DTect-IT was first introduced in 2016 as a product primarily used for detecting vibration levels and irregularities anywhere on a CNC machine tool or fixture; with featured applications of bearing analysis and bar feeder vibration detection (and correction).

Okuma America Corp. announces new standard warranty programs for new machine tool purchases. The new, standard warranty includes coverage for all Okuma core and high tech products, as well as OSP and FANUC controls.

ToolRoom RN34 is the latest generation of ANCA's successful software package that has been specially designed for the aerospace, die and mold, general machining and power generation industries.

Energid released Version 5.5 of the Actin software development kit (SDK), an even more powerful and easier-to-use version of the industry's only real-time adaptive robotic motion control and path planning toolkit. Actin Version 5.5 adds Actin Viewer enhancements, Motion Script updates and G-code support, making it even easier for robotic systems developers to focus on the robot's tasks rather than joint movement and paths.

BLM Group USA's TS72 universal cold sawing CNC system for cutting tubes, bars and profiles features an automatic axis control function enables automated changeover for non-stop, unattended production.

The new GCX Linear builds on the best aspects of ANCAs proven technology to offer a purpose-built solution for manufacturing and sharpening skiving cutters. With a 5-axis CNC grinder powered by LinX linear motor technology on X, Y and Z axes, the GCX Linear also comes with features specially designed for skiving cutters and shaper cutters.
