CNC Machining Centers (Vertical, Horizontal)

Mazak Corp.'s Integrex i-400ST multitask machine is available with two turning spindles, a milling spindle and lower turret – a configuration that can process first and second operations simultaneously or perform required sequential operations on a single workpiece. With Done In One part production ability to handle all processes from raw material input through final machining, the Integrex i-400ST reduces lead times dramatically and eliminates multiple setups for improved part accuracy.

Mazak Corp.'s highly productive Integrex i-300ST multitask machine is available with the company's spindle health monitoring system. As a revolutionary new tool powered by AI technology, the system monitors spindle health to help minimize unexpected machine downtime.

Mazak Corp. offers the Integrex i-200ST AG hybrid multitask machine for Done In One gear production. Equipped with the Auto Gear (AG) package, the machine efficiently processes mid-size complex components with the added versatility of twin spindles, milling spindle (S) and a lower turret (T), as well as a full range of Smooth Technology solutions.

Shaft manufacturing is a core function in automotive production. While in recent years drive and transmission shafts were the focus of production planners, the success of e-mobility also increases the demand for productive rotor shaft manufacturing. Therefore, there is a need for a manufacturing solution that is able to machine a great variety of components. All these components have one thing in common: large unit volumes and very high-quality requirements. After all, the efficiency of the entire drive train depends on the quality and functionality of the shafts. The vertical 4-axis shaft turning machines of the VT series are ideal for this task. When it comes to machining components with a maximum length of 630 millimeters and a maximum diameter of 200 millimeters, the machine is able to make full use of its qualities.

Methods Machine Tools Inc. has introduced a new line of Methods-branded 3-axis vertical and 5-axis bridge-type machining centers, all engineered and built to Methods' highest specifications and quality standards. The Methods Machining Centers are available in North America, and offer an affordable, accurate and reliable best-in-class mid-range machining solution.

Mitsui Seiki's HPX63 II 4-axis horizontal machining center, an improved version of the company's proven HPX63 unit, features a 70% faster rapid feed rate of 54 m/min. that produces shorter cycle times and a 14% percent reduction in shop floor footprint (now 5,554mm x 3,530mm) to maximize manufacturing facility space.

ShopBot Tools has announced the launch of the ShopBot Desktop MAX ATC, the newest addition to its desktop tool line. The Desktop MAX ATC has all of the same capabilities of the popular Desktop MAX but has the additional power and efficiency of an automatic toolchanger (ATC).

Kitamura's Mycenter-HX250G HMC offers up a small footprint with ultrahigh level accuracies. This unique powerhouse has a standard two-station APC with full 4-axis capabilities for drilling, milling, boring, tapping, threading and much more. A standard high-speed 15,000-rpm, dual-contact spindle is ideal for tougher cuts with a 30,000-rpm option for more highly intricate part processing.

Ultrasonic LLC introduces the Ultra 3200FA, a full-featured ultrasonic cleaner with 55-gallon main tank capacity and horizontal transducers for superior cleaning action without solvents.

CleanVeyor ultrasonic parts washer from Cleaning Technologies Group LLC utilizes a combination of spray, immersion, and ultrasonic cleaning technologies and has proven successful in achieving Six Sigma consistency in a number of applications requiring high production outputs and tight cleanliness levels.

CGTech is now shipping the next major version of its composite applications: VERICUT Composite Programming (VCP) & VERICUT Composite Simulation (VCS).

LaserLinc has added ultrasonics to it popular BenchLinc benchtop inspection systems.
