Machine Tools – Metalcutting

The compact Micro5 machining center, to be demonstrated by Chiron Group at IMTS 2022, booth 134542 in the Germany stand, is ideal for machining the smallest medical instruments and delicate parts for microprecision industry.

The G220 features a Z-axis slide with a motorized milling spindle and hydrodynamically mounted Y/B axis arranged above the axis of rotation.

The TBTA-3A-6 has 6 inches (152 mm) of BTA drilling capacity and 48 inches (1,219 mm) of drilling depth. The work table moves horizontally back and forth to provide the X-axis travel, and the drill slide moves vertically on a column to provide Y-axis travel.

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

There are different reasons for rebuilding rather than replacing machines.

Custom PCD and carbide cutting-tool maker West Ohio Tool continues to exceed customer expectations with a recent expansion to its product and service offerings. For those manufacturers machining ferrous metals, hardened steels and superalloys, the company now offers CBN-tipped tools that boost cutting efficiency and provide extended tool life.

The addition of touchscreen technology to the unit's control boxes will enhance communication with the machine operators. With a simple "touch", operators will be able to display many of the machine functions in real time.

KBC stocks Evolutions' 14" and 15" Metal Cutting Chop Saws, (7.1/4" models are also available), with a no load speed of 1550 RPM, a high torque motor, a cast aluminum base with integrated wear plate and bench mounting holes.

KBC Tools & Machinery is pleased to announce that it is now carrying and stocking the Evolution line of heavy duty Metal Cutting Power Tools made especially for metalworking in both Canada and The US and featuring Magnetic Drills and Circular Saws.Now you can cut through mild steel up to 4 times faster, without heat build up or burrs…and less secondary re-work with KBC and Evolution's Circular Saws and Magnetic Drills.KBC stocks Evolution's 1.1/8" and 1.5/8" Magnetic Drills with 2,860 lbs./f of magnet adhesion, ½" drill capacity, 2" maximum cutting depth, ¾" cutter shank, 10 amps, drill travel of 11.1/2", 8 ft. rubber power chord.

The vertical column and base are made from heavily ribbed Meehanite castings that minimize thermal distortion and dampen vibration. Smooth operation is virtually guaranteed complements of enclosed X-, Y- and Z-axis box guideways featuring hand-scraped mating surfaces, Turcite-B coatings and forced lubrication.
