Walter has introduced WSM01, a premier grade for demanding machining applications. Coupled with Walter's new MS3 negative geometry, it produces burr-free results with high surface finish quality in the hardest materials.

PureCut PCBN eliminates impurities by using an ultraclean grade composition, nano-particle-sized binder and optimized CBN (cubic boron nitride) grain size distribution. This unique design delivers unmatched toughness, increased resistance to chemical wear and greater reliability in the machining of hardened steel.

Heimatec announces the availability of its Citizen tool program. This line includes both live and static tools for most Citizen lathes. Designed to optimize the machine's parameters, these precision tools are efficient and cost effective.

MAPAL has introduced a milling program with pressed, radial ISO indexable inserts, thus completing the portfolio of standard milling tools. Up to now, the company has mainly focused on a milling program with ground, tangential ISO indexable inserts. These are used in particular for special applications, very large stock removal, unstable conditions or disc milling cutters.

PLÜMAT will be introducing the Strategic Parts Management PARTsolutions by CADENAS to its business units of engineering, development and work preparation in the course of 2018. The Geometric Similarity Search GEOsearch of PARTsolutions will increase the reuse of components in the company.

To be shipped to customers in November 2018, Eureka 9 virtual machining software suite from Roboris Srl includes many enhancements.

Tungaloy further expands its popular indexable gundrill series, DeepTriDrill to include a diameter range of 28.01 mm – 40 mm or 1.1" – 1.57".

Using multiple software systems to manage cutting tool data and toolholder assembly models is both time-consuming and error-prone. That's why software developer CGTech announces that it offers a connection with Siemens' Teamcenter software as part of its toolpath simulation software, VERICUT.

With its PWP and PWP-D insertable form drill system, Schwanog addresses the problem of high setup times as the insert holder stays in the machine during insert changeover. This design allows the center height to stay unchanged.

Conventional machining of serrations on turned parts requires a separate process either while milling or broaching. Before either of these finishing processes can take place the parts generally must go through a cleaning process. With Schwanog's broaching tool, manufacturer of serrated turned parts are able to use a completely new approach on a conventional lathe with C-axis, in a single operation, which eliminates the cleaning process.

EXAIR's new 2-1/2 inch and 3 inch Heavy Duty Line Vacs are powerful in-line conveyors that transport high volumes of material through ordinary hose or tube. Designed for rugged, industrial applications, Heavy Duty Line Vacs have a hardened alloy construction that prevent premature wear when transporting abrasive or heavy materials like shot blast, tumbling media or metal fittings.

A line of two-piece shaft collars that combine a smooth bore to protect valuable shafts with wrenching flats to safely provide added torque using an open-end wrench has been introduced by Stafford Manufacturing Corp.
