Sandvik Hyperion's new AM60 carbide grade is an advanced substrate developed to increase machining productivity and performance for applications that require CVD diamond coating.

Doosan Machine Tools America offers its latest generation of advanced multi-tasking turning centers: the PUMA SMX series. There are six models in the line, stepped in size and capabilities. Most offer the configuration of equally sized and powered left and right spindles plus a B-axis milling spindle.

Sandvik Hyperion's carbide grade AM70 is an advanced substrate developed to increase machining productivity and performance in titanium and ISO M materials. The AM70 grade is comprised of a combination of submicron carbide grains that provide the perfect mix of toughness and wear resistance.

Sandvik Hyperion is introducing diameter tolerances in high-performance endmill blanks described as RUGI. New tolerances exceed the industry standard with an advanced round tool blanks specification.

Sandvik Hyperion's BZN V-Series PCBN grades provide versatility in three key aspects of machining of hardened ferrous materials. First, the grades are able to work in case hardened, bearing steels, powder metal alloy steels, and tool steels.

Sandvik Hyperion offers Compax veined PCD. This product offers diamond sintered within slotted veins oriented along a 30 degree helix angle. Its nibs are designed specifically for use in machining of CFRP and CFRP-metal stacks.

C.R. Onsrud introduces its 5­-axis Compact High Rail tailored to the more demanding higher load and larger work volume requirements of the aerospace, automotive, medical and defense industries. ​Options include retractable roof for easy material loading, large capacity toolchangers and multiple spindle configurations to meet varying machining needs.

Memex Inc. announced two new modules to the MERLIN open platform: MERLIN Financial Overall Equipment Effectiveness (FOEE) and MERLIN DNC. According to the comany, most manufacturers are totally in the dark in terms of knowing in real-time if they are making or losing money on a given machine tool, shift or plant.

C.R.Onsrud introduces a hybrid of traditional milling technology with the productivity of high-speed machining. This American-made 5-axis machining center is configured with dual tables eliminating load unload time. It also has the capability to electronically lock the two tables together for machining of large parts.

C.R.Onsrud introduces and demonstrates a machining center designed for complex machining and sawing ofnextrusions. This machining center is able to process five sides of thick-walled extrusions and index parts by using its independent servo programmable clamping system. The optional large capacity saw is available for material cutoff and mitering.

Preco Inc. announces the Lightning Bolt 2000 laser system for processing of accurate micro features on metallic, ceramic and polymer materials. The system is customizable to accommodate a range of IR, green and UV wavelengths and nanosecond, picosecond and femtosecond lasers and can be configured for specific process requirements.
