Lead Screw Configurator

igus has developed a new lead screw configurator that will allow customers to quickly design their own lead screw and associated drawing without in-depth technical knowledge and CAD software. Designing a lead screw usually requires significant effort for the user, who is required to have technical drawing skills and access to a CAD program. Now, igus has developed a platform where anyone can use the largest lead screw shop in existence and design an individually manufactured and long-lasting part for their application.

FZ 16 S 5-axis Machining Center

Producing complex aerospace parts such as vanes, blisks and impellers requires a particularly fast, very precise and extremely dynamic machining center. For manufacturing critical components used in engine and turbine construction, this means a 5-axis machining center. Machines for highly dynamic milling with five simultaneously controlled axes are essential for producing reliable aircraft engine components. A leading developer of CNC vertical milling and turning centers, the Chiron Group has brought a machining center to market precisely matched to the special requirements of the aviation sector: the FZ 16 S 5-axis with 5-axis tilt rotary table.
