Toolholders & Workholding

Designed for the production of tools, molds and high-quality parts, the GF AgieCharmilles Mikron HPM 800U HD 5-axis High Performance Machining Center features High Dynamics (HD) technology that delivers 1G machine acceleration rates for fast precision part processing and significantly reducing non-cut time.

A new multi-tasking turning/milling center has a variety of modular options that tailor it to exactly those functions that are needed for a user's range of parts. With two turrets, 8- or 12-stations each, one main spindle and an optional sub-spindle, Amada Machine Tools America says its new S-10 can do more in one loading, often with simultaneous machining from live spindles on each turret.

Meeting the motor industry's needs for a thin and robust rotary encoder for tight spaces is Leine & Linde's introduction of the 700 Series of encoders from Heidenhain.

Parts remain clamped if loss of air occurs when using the Hardinge failsafe collet block (closer).

The larger the component, the smaller the batch size. This is typically the case with heavy-duty machining in many branches of the industry.

Seco Tool's new generation of Crownloc Plus exchangeable tip drills takes holemaking to the next level by increasing output and decreasing machining costs.

Heidenhain Corp. offers NUMERIK JENA encoders that are non-magnetic.

INDEX offers the new MS22C-8, from its Multiline series.

The EXSYS/EPPINGER PRECI-FLEX Adapter System is continuously expanding to meet the toolholding needs of today's manufacturers. Joining the PRECI-FLEX line of high-precision modular tooling systems are the new Type 02 extended adapters and new Shrink-Fit adapters.

What tooling does a multi-spindle automatic, a CNC lathe and a vertical machining center have in common? The answer is S-pads.

Chevalier's FBL-530 is a versatile machine that is helping manufacturers with a wide range of needs.

Rockford Systems Inc. offers a new line of electrically interlocked heavy-duty lathe shields.
