Machining

InCompass, a platform company of TJM Capital Partners, has reached a definitive agreement to acquire Bridgeport Machine Tool Co.

The Vargus Mach TM is a high-performance thread milling tool engineered to enhance machining productivity and efficiency. Designed with advanced features, it is ideal for demanding applications requiring precise threading and superior surface finish.

The MC166 Advance solid carbide milling cutter with increased core stability compared to a conventional tool core ensures a consistently reliable machining process even in unattended operations. A differential pitch provides optimum operational smoothness and significantly extends tool life.

Copper is one of the "hottest" metals attracting attention in the additive manufacturing world these days. But 3D printing poses distinct challenges.

ANCA Inc., a manufacturer of CNC grinding machines, is exhibiting at the Motion + Power Technology Expo from Oct. 17 to 19 at Huntington Place in Detroit.

The E346V+ presetter features rigidity and accurate performance due to a ground granite base and column, as well as an electro-welded and de-tensioned steel construction with an ergonomic design. This rugged design helps assure the same perpendicularity accuracy for tools of all sizes.

The recently launched tools, toolholders and chipbreakers move manufacturers toward better results easier, more quickly and with cost savings. "We're focused on developing new ways for our customers to solve age old problems while taking full advantage of their machine tools," said Mia Bökmark, Vice President Product Offer & Innovation at Seco.

For the second year in a row, customers that purchase Big Daishowa cutting tools, toolholders and workholding products will support local manufacturing training programs at the same time.

The cartridges provides the possibility to design custom tools incorporating the ES-Bore lay down cartridges, allowing customers to receive special tools within a shorter delivery time and at a lower cost.

The holders accept CCGT3xx, DCGT3xx and VCGT2xx indexable inserts and provide a high level of indexing accuracy even when turning parts with tight tolerance specifications. The short head dimension enables short clamping and high stability. The shank dimensions are 12 mm × 12 mm and 16 mm × 16 mm.

With its high precision and efficiency, the two-spindle BA W03-22 CNC machining center is ideal for producing high-quality work products in medium and large series for the automotive industry. Compared to a single-spindle machine, cycle times can be reduced many times over, ensuring maximum productivity.

The P80360 drive is fully programmable via an intuitive graphical user interface and programming language, available within the Kollmorgen Space software package offered as a free download on the Kollmorgen website. Using these tools, engineers can create simple point-to-point movements as well as linked motion sequences with ease.
