Walter has introduced the MC319/MC320 Advance Line of solid-carbide milling cutters that have been specially engineered for roughing. The Advance lineup is one of the three categories to Walter milling tools.

The uniquely shaped combination bench and pipe vises from Palmgren feature a straight line pull design and super strong power tunnel to assure that the spindle and nut never wear out. As a result, this design delivers increased clamping power and reduced drag enabling the vise to easily open and close.

The large-capacity TRACER 65V/80V hydrodynamic magazine bar feeder from CNC Indexing & Feeding Technologies can accommodate bars up to 12' long in diameters from 10mm to 65mm and, following a simple channel change, up to 80mm in diameter. The feeder holds multiple bars, depending on the diameter size.

Marposs Corp. has announced the availability of its Genior Modular GEMCMS-02 single-channel, compact machine monitoring system for collision monitoring and crash damage mitigation in machine tools. The GEMCMS-02 can be used as a stand-alone system or in combination with other Genior Modular solutions, achieving both collision detection and process monitoring simultaneously and visualizing the processes in parallel.

EXAIR's new 30-gallon Heavy Duty HEPA Vac is a powerful, HEPA-quality, industrial vacuum cleaner. This smaller volume drum means that it will fit in tighter spaces and is suited for less frequent or lower volume applications.

Siemens Digital Industries Software announces the availability of the latest version of Solid Edge software, which features numerous enhancements that will enable small and medium-sized manufacturing companies to accelerate product development and manufacturing processes.
