Mugen Endmills
Single Source Technologies now offers two additional models of NS Tool's MUGEN coated ball endmill series.
Stellram 5230VS12
ATI Stellram introduces a new chevron-style milling cutter, the Stellram 5230VS12, designed specifically for machining titanium and other difficult to machine materials, such as nickel-based alloys ands cobalt-based alloys.
Niigata HN1000-S horizontal machining center
Niigata's new HN1000-S Horizontal Machining Center from SNK America Inc. is said to be capable of swinging a part up to 2,300mm (90.6") in diameter and 1,850mm (72.8") in height. The HN1000-S rapid traverse rate of 40m/min. (1,575ipm) allows for the reduction in non-cutting time.
Plunge Milling: High volume roughing on your machine
Tom Noble and Bill Fiorenza of Ingersoll Cutting Tools present "Plunge Milling: High Volume Roughing on Your Machine" as part of the Fast Track Seminar series hosted at the Cutting Tool Engineering booth during IMTS 2010.

7792VXE16 Shell Mill
ATI Stellram has introduced the 7792VXE16 high-feed shell mill cutter for machining titanium and nickel- and cobalt-base alloys.
DZ 12K S Magnum
DZ 12K S MAGNUM five axis from Chiron America Inc. is a double-spindle, highly productive, 5-axis complete machining center with 2-axis tilt rotary table for milling and turning complex workpieces in one set-up.
NBV 700 MT (Mill/Turn) Machine
Shorter cycle times are one way of reducing costs; another way to be more productive actually involves longer cycle times: complete machining in a single setup. Clamping a part only once means reduced costs for fixtures, less time spent on setups for different machines, while improving quality by avoiding reclamping errors. This is exactly where the new vertical milling machine from MAG comes"
Beyond Blast inserts channel coolant through inserts
Kennametal Inc.'s Beyond Blast inserts channel coolant through the insert to the milling cutter/insert interface.
FTR 3500 Boring Mill
MAG's new FTR 3500 floor-type horizontal boring mill (HBM) is a versatile, mid-sized job-shop machine, capable of a full 2 m reach inside parts with a ram-supported spindle.
HELIDO S865 FSN mill
Iscar Metals Inc. has expanded its popular HELIDO milling cutter family to optimize facemilling, especially for cast iron. The new HELIDO S865 FSN mill has a 65<sup>o</sup> lead angle to minimize burr formation and edge breakout, which can complicate cast iron applications.
