UNITED GRINDING offers the MÄGERLE MFP 51, which combines grinding with conventional machining operations within one production system. This flexible machine comes equipped with either 5 or 6 axes for grinding, milling and drilling operations to process parts in single clampings for improved accuracy and output.

EXAIR's new Soft Grip Super Air Scraper is a safety air gun to help remove the most stubborn debris found within industrial facilities. The patent pending design uses a scraping blade to aid the powerful compressed air flow removal of debris.

JW Winco Inc. offers GN 927 clamping levers with eccentrical cam, in tapped type and threaded stud versions. The RoHS compliant GN 927 clamping levers with eccentrical cam are used for rapid clamping and releasing operations.

Monaghan Tooling Group (MTG) announces a first-of-its-kind program that provides new product engineers with an easier and faster way to build higher-quality and more profitable products. Called the Engineered Success Guarantee, this new program virtually guarantees that an engineer's new product or part that uses Monaghan's tooling will meet the quality and cycle time specification while promising the delivery date of its custom tooling.

FlexArm Inc. introduces the AR-40 Articulating Torque Reaction Arm, for enhanced operator ergonomics and improved production quality. Occupying a small footprint, it delivers up to 40 ft/lbs of torque reaction through a working range of 4 ¼ to 27 inches.

In November 2004, when LACH was awarded the German Innovation Prize for a newly developed technology for the cost and time efficient machining of aluminum components with a monoblock diamond cutter »dia-compact«, it was already said, "Nothing is more efficient than this … ." However, there was still something more efficient – as proven by the development of »Cool Injection-Plus», cooling directly via the PCD cutting insert.Today, maximum tool life, extremely high cutting results and feed rates are taken for granted by leading automotive manufacturers and suppliers due to the use of LACH DIAMOND's monoblock milling cutters.In addition, perfect surface quality and part accuracy have been achieved – followed by reductions of cycle time by 50 percent and more.The PCD monoblock milling cutter by LACH DIAMOND is completely mounted and balanced, delivered with an adapter of your choice and it can be immediately used on a machine, without adjustments.

Industry 4.0 is often referred to as "Smart Manufacturing," where technology enables interconnectivity for machines and manufacturing software and systems. It also provides big data, increased visibility and remote access to manufacturing assets. The rush towards Smart Manufacturing, which drives manufacturers to connect their systems to the IoT, has led to an inviting number of security gaps that are easy targets for hackers.

The Hoffmann Group has introduced a new module for its GARANT Xpent 5-axis vice to the market. This new center jaw, which can be optionally fitted to the base rail, has now made it possible to clamp two workpieces with just one vice, and to process these in a single operation.

The GPL-V (shaft) and GPL-H (hollow) are the company's lowest backlash (≤ 0.1 arc minute) planetary gearboxes for horizontal and vertical robotic applications. A patented design guarantees that the backlash will not increase over the life time of the gearbox.

DEWALT announces the expansion of its Metal Tool Storage line, including top chests, workbenches, and rolling cabinets ranging from 26-to 52-inches wide as well as 18-inches to 21-inches deep for ample storage solutions. Each is made in the USA with global materials.

The new Cincinnati HMC 800 is a high-performance HMC solution for demanding aerospace, oil and gas, and other industrial hard metal manufacturing applications that require precision machining. The Cincinnati HMC 800 combines high spindle torque and power with superior dynamic machine stiffness, plus, the dual ball screws provide exceptional feed rates: 45m/min, and acc/dec rates of 0.5G.

Today, parts cleaning mostly means to fulfill defined cleanliness specifications. In order to clean as economically as possible, the potential of the cleaning system needs to be fully exploited. This is often prevented by the cleaning container. With the MEFO-BOX system, Metallform has developed a solution whose well thought-out design offers key advantages.
