Fabrication & Cutting

ShapeGrabber 3D Laser Scanning systems are metrology-class machines that combine powerful laser and camera technology to capture up to 1.5 million data points per second. At the heart of each ShapeGrabber system is a high-resolution scanhead offering dynamic range that delivers fast and accurate measurement of parts in a wide variety of materials, colors, textures, and finishes.

SIGMA LS offers processing solutions for a broad range of femtosecond laser micromachining applications requiring optimal quality, minimal thermal effects, and high stability and dimensional accuracy, including hole drilling in stainless steel cannula; selective polymer ablation on metal; hole drilling in ceramic microfluidics; and texturing metals, polymers, ceramics. It is also a good choice for micromachining polymer filter screen and micromachining metal struts and filaments.

VpCI®-418 LM can be used on a variety of metals (carbon steel, stainless steel, cast iron, galvanized steel, brass [30% Zn], copper) and may be used at different dosages for light, medium, or heavy-duty cleaning.

Finishing is an active area of CAD/CAM software development that becomes better every year. Discover how it can benefit your operations.

The company's Tiger system has firmly established itself as the gold standard for cutting tool insert finishing, with installations in many of the world's leading cutting tool insert manufacturers. The system can be configured to process inserts for all essential pre-coating, edge honing or post-coating operations.

In the world of corrosion control, preventing rust is always the best option. Unfortunately, existing rust can be found in every industry, at almost any plant or jobsite.

The PI motorized optical mounts are suited for laser applications and are available for ambient and vacuum conditions. Motorized kinematic mirror mounts provide a means to control the pitch and yaw axes of a mirror, usually to direct or deflect a laser beam. To achieve large angles up to 16 degrees while keeping the dimensions as small as possible, the N-480 series kinematic motorized optical mirror mounts are equipped with long travel, high resolution piezo motors.

Using lasers to mark parts can reduce damage done by counterfeiters.

MIT engineers have created a new two-dimensional polymer that self-assembles into sheets

General-purpose endmills often fit the bill at high-mix, low-volume shops.

For proper material preparation The KBC Pneumatic Hand Chamfering Tool allows you to remove burrs easily and quickly to create a uniform edge with repeatable accuracy up to almost 1mm depth, prepare metal for welding jobs and clean them up after, and a host of other needs in the machine shop or on site. The bearing runs along the edge of the surface while two carbide inserts chamfer the edge for smooth results. (Replacement standard triangular tip carbide inserts, TCMT-09T3, are available.)

The LaserSmart 510 Femto with its innovative and powerful femto-second laser source provides unlimited machining possibilities. This laser source has a femto-second pulse width which is 1,000 shorter than a pico laser. It is built on the success of the Rollomatic LaserSmart® series of machines. This revolutionary process allows users to achieve the results that set new standards in ultra-hard material machining.
