Heimatec Inc. announces immediate availability of marking and cleaning tools from its European partner Andreas Maier, under the AMF brand. The announcement was made by the president of Heimatec Inc., Preben Hansen. “This development brings additional products to our current customers and responds to the market needs for quality marking and cleaning tools for workpieces in CNC machining,” he observed.

Fuji Machine America Corp. says its ANW-3500 fully automated twin-spindle Lathe is impressive on its own, but when combined with Fuji’s Fully Automated HM-3400 milling machine (optimized to integrate), it opens up a whole new world of machining possibilities and efficiencies. Both machines of this cell have built-in robots.

WDS Component Parts Ltd. has extended its range of detent pins, including new type of grips so that customers can choose a style on aesthetic or ergonomic grounds. Detent pins are a quick and easy way to locate and secure parts in place. In use they are manually pushed into place to hold the parts and lock themselves into position by way of a pair of spring loaded ball bearings at the leading end. However, the pin can be removed with a sharp tug.

The new CSC (Curve Segment Cutting) CurveMax milling cutters from tool manufacturer Inovatools not only reduce processing times for finishing complex free-form surfaces in tool and mold construction, turbine blade production, and complex component geometries in general machine engineering, but also enhance surface quality compared with the full-radius mills previously used for these tasks.

Renishaw introduces InfiniAM Spectral, a new additive manufacturing (AM) process monitoring software. Developed for use on Renishaw systems, the software package helps AM users gain a greater understanding of their processes and overcome the difficulties with AM in critical applications, process stability and part quality. InfiniAM Spectral is part of a developing family of products that help users capture, evaluate, present and store process data from Renishaw laser powder-bed fusion (LPBF) technologies.

Designed for more effective coolant flow and improved chip control, Carmex’s new X-treme Jet External thread turning toolholder provides two connecting options via an elbow fitting and top clamp to more precisely direct the coolant flow to the cutting edge, where it is most effective.

Allied Machine & Engineering announces the release of its newest GEN3SYS XT Pro high-penetration insert designed specifically for beam and plate production in the structural steel market. With an exclusive combination of substrate and multilayer coating, the insert is engineered to withstand heat generated while drilling in structural steel beams or plates in high production facilities.

The 16-inch variable-speed drill press from Palmgren was designed with the latest drilling technology and operation features to enhance output and accuracy. What separates it from the competition is its efficiency, safety and ergonomics.

Fleury is specialized in the manufacturing of linear transfer systems consisting of six-side milling, turning, boring, grinding and assembly operations. The system is based on a modular, compact design, which has been and still is revolutionary for the manufacturing process in general.

Manufacturing and the market have changed significantly since VaporTech began designing and building PVD coating systems more than 20 years ago. These days, industry competition is fierce, and manufacturers must often fight for their customer’s business. For this reason, VaporTech has unveiled its VT-3000i, a new coating system that helps manufacturers differentiate their products and increase their return on investment (ROI) with the latest materials and technologies and a right-sized design for today’s manufacturing needs.

Tungaloy is introducing Premium Internal Bar – DPMT series for efficient ID turning. This new ID turning tool series reduces cutting force by 10 percent compared with conventional tools, while promising end users with machining stability and superior surface finish quality.

Cabinet maintenance work required whilst the capacities are still charged? To this end, Michael Koch GmbH is introducing a connectible, overload-proof resistor unit. It discharges the capacities to a desired, safe voltage level within a reasonable timeframe.

Sandvik Coromant, is introducing two new ceramic insert grades that are capable of performing high-speed, high-security turning operations on components made from demanding HRSA (heat-resistant superalloy) materials. The CC6220 and CC6230 ceramic grades are developed to machine demanding materials where whisker ceramics and SiAlONs fall short.

Tungaloy’s counterboring tools, TCB series, is now available with new tool diameters, ranging from 26 mm to 59 mm or 1.02” to 2.32”, and inserts with the –CG style chipbreaker geometry.

Tungaloy is introducing a coated cermet grade, AT9530 for steel turning applications. The new AT9530 grade incorporates Tungaloy’s unique multi-layered coating technology and special post-surface treatment PremiumTec. This combination provides superior resistance to wear and fracture for improved productivity in finishing of steel during high speed machining.
