Mitutoyo America Corp. announces the addition of the Quick Vision Active series to its line of vision measurement systems. This CNC vision measuring system is an easy-to-operate, space-saving model with advanced functionality to meet many contact and noncontact measuring needs.

Dosatron International Inc. announces a new mobile coolant fill system. It includes a durable, roto-molded 15- or 25-gal. coolant concentrate tank, an onboard Dosatron proportioner, a simple garden hose water connection swivel, "no flat" tires and an EZ fill, gas nozzle-style valve, with fill hose.

The new rectangular cartridges from E-Z Burr Tool are a custom-made solution for indexable drills and adjustable precision boring heads. Now you can accomplish two operations in one convenient pass. The company simply mills a trench in an indexable drill or boring head and installs a custom-designed deburring cartridge that slides right into the trench.

Reiff & Nestor Co. manufactures and stocks a wide variety of both tapered (NPT, ANTP, NPTF, BSPT) and straight pipe taps (NPS, NPSM, NSPC, NPSF, BSP). Both NPT and NPTF are available with 0-2˚ rake, medium and high hooks.

The new LNS SFcompact chip conveyor (available September 2016) filters coolant to 50 microns and handles virtually all chip types and sizes, from stringy stainless steel to fine brass and aluminum. Unlike other chip conveyors capable of 50-micron filtration, the filtering system is integrated within the rigid frame, so SFcompact requires no more floor space than a typical hinge-belt conveyor and, in most cases, can use the existing coolant tank, according to the company.

The LNS Express 220 S2 automatic, magazine bar feeder faultlessly loads 12' long bars with diameters from 2 mm to 20 mm and, with bar preparation, up to 26 mm to accommodate 20 mm machines with 26 mm bar capacity. The enhanced bar feeder uses a simple loading assistance design for small diameter bars with a proprietary, automatic loading mechanism and bar selection system to precisely and consistently load small bars, especially in the 2 mm to 4 mm diameter range, without failure, according to the company.

Riten introduces a modified face driver specifically designed to hold workpieces with diameters of 2" or less. In lieu of individual drive pins, the unit features a multi-toothed drive disk that securely penetrates the face of the part. It is ideal for gear hobbing and other aggressive machining operations.

LACH DIAMOND introduces its newly developed PCD cartridge milling cutter »dia-blue-power«. A PCD monoblock milling cutter with brazed cutting edges, chip and shear angle and a large chip space created the basis for better performance and cost reductions in the automobile and composite industries, according to the company.
