For easy programming of recurring shapes with a single click, hyperMILL 2023 has a new General Transformation Pattern feature. The new feature uses a selected reference geometry and searches for the same reference in all other models regardless of its spatial orientation, creating a general transformation pattern including associated frames. This is highly useful when there are multiple components.n

With CenterMaster, the user simply clamps a radio dial gauge into the workspace and sets it to the quill. The gauge and machine wirelessly communicate, automatically adjusting the holder along the X axis. The system then guides the operator through adjusting the Y axis via the machine's touchscreen display.

Endmills tipped with CBN, which is the second hardest material after diamond, are offered in sizes ranging from 6mm down to 0.1mm in diameter, with various configurations, from sharp corner, radius corner, ball, standard neck length and extended neck length. TOWA offers their CBN endmills in multi-flute configurations. By maintaining the same feed per flute, and increasing the number of flutes, cutting time is reduced, while profitability is increased. The CBN series of endmills, due to the hardness of the CBN, is an excellent choice for machining harden materials in the range of 55 to over 60 Rockwell "C".

Nikon's alignment with the industry-standard OPC UA communication protocol reaffirms its dedication to developing fully automated, non-contact, X-ray CT quality control systems for the shop floor. There is a growing, industry-wide trend towards using this technology for feeding back data in real time to optimize production line operation – the goal being zero defects. X-ray CT is especially relevant, as it is able to inspect and measure the interior of components non-destructively as well as the exterior.

As it is automated, reconstruction by Dual.Material CT is highly repeatable from component to component and does not require advanced knowledge of scanning techniques when inspecting assemblies comprising two materials of different densities. QC productivity is raised by enabling better visualization and more accurate definition of defects (on the surface or inside a component) in a fraction of the time taken by traditional CT image reconstruction. The high-speed scanning, and the fact that no manual data editing is required thanks to the new software and automated part handling, enables fast and automated quality control of dual material assemblies in a production environment, consistent with the requirements of Quality 4.0.

The 3B Thread Gages have the following features: High hardness TiN coating to provide long tool life. Gold coloring to visually analyze the wear condition in seconds.

The PHOENIX PXM-PXSH end mill offers the following features & benefits: OSG's proven cutting geometries and coatings produces high performance in a variety of applications and materials. 2-face contact (end face and taper) and buttress thread for fast and highly rigid clamping. Radial runout less than 15µm and axial repeatability ±30µm for high accuracy and repeatability. End mill style, inch and metric provides a complete offering.

The A Brand AE-CR-MS-H end mill offers the following features & benefits: Variable index to reduce chattering. Cutting edge geometry for stable machining of high-hardness steels. DUROREY coating which allows for outstanding performance in high-hardness steels

The A Brand AE-VTSS end mill offers the following features & benefits: Positive rake angle which reduces cutting force. High rigidity to improve milling accuracy. New flute form that facilitates excellent chip evacuation. Duarise coating to minimize thermal cracks. Variable leads which enables stable and high efficiency milling.

The DVF 4000 comes standard with a 15,000 r/min direct coupled spindle, powered by a 24.8 hp (18.5 kW) motor that generates 87.1 ft-lbs (118 Nm) of torque. A FANUC 31i-B5 Plus control makes full 5-axis simultaneous control possible, giving complete contouring capabilities. It features a 400 mm diameter built-in rotary table with a zero-backlash roller gear cam design for superior rigidity and speed.

There are two types of levers available for the E-Xtreme series enclosures. The standard C-type lever is made of a stainless-steel frame and polyamide handle, and it provides an IP65/IP66 protection degree. The E-Xtreme enclosures with the C-type lever are ideal for environments with salt mist, ultraviolet rays, corrosive chemicals, and frequent mating. The V-type lever is ideal for environments with higher humidity levels, lower temperatures with ice, and salt mist because it provides better waterproofing with IP66/IP67 protection rating thanks to its vertical closing movement. Also, the V-type lever is also more resistant to shocks, fire, and chemicals because the lever is made of full stainless steel without using any plastic components.

The Robotmaster plugin for Mastercam supports Mastercam 2023, the current release, as well as Mastercam 2021 and 2022. And while the new plugin streamlines robotic programming for Mastercam customers, those looking for a standalone solution can simply rely on Robotmaster's integrated CAD/CAM functionality. The software allows customers to import the CAD model for their part and generate toolpaths directly within Robotmaster without the need for separate CAD/CAM software.
