Methods Machine Tools Inc. has introduced the new High Performance FEELER FVT-600 Vertical Turning Lathe, ideal for machining large, heavy, challenging parts including those used in aerospace and power generation industries.
Hardinge HCAC Collet Adaptation Chucks will adapt most spindles to accept C-series pull back collets, J-series pull back collets, stationary B-series collets, style-S master collets, step chucks and closers and dead-length collets.
The Systec front-actuated pneumatically powered jaw chuck from Lexair is an ideal automation upgrade for manual lathes, as well as rotary tables and indexers that require higher grip force for difficult applications.
Methods Machine Tools Inc. has introduced the Nakamura-Tome NTJ-100 Multitasking Turn/Mill Center, which is well-suited for a wide range of production needs.
Guyson Corp. has designed and built a 7-axis robotic grit-blast machine that is configured for precision roughening of component surfaces in a production thermal spray coating cell.
EMAG LLC's VLC 100 G vertical grinding center is for chucked components up to 100mm in diameter. The machine can use its onboard pickup system to load itself, and while one part is being machined, the operator or automation system is putting workpieces on the conveyor belt.
