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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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 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.
