Traditionally, leveling and alignment of a CNC machine are time-consuming and cumbersome tasks with tedious repetition on going back-and-forth checking "bubble" position in-between tiny graduation lines. This monotonous trial-and-error alignment task promotes boredom that often succumbing maintenance engineers to resort for compromising works. All these issues are now a thing of the past with Digi-Pas 2-axis Smart Master Machinist Level and Inclinometer.

Phillips Precision’s Products Div. announces its new Radial Loc-N-Load Plate as part of the Inspection Arsenal LEAN, Quick-Swap inspection fixture system. The Radial Loc-N-Load plate is 8 inches in diameter, 1/2”-thick black hard anodized aluminum with ¼-20 threaded holes. Because not every part is square we decided to use a radial hole pattern rather than a grid pattern in ½” offsets starting from the center hole. The smaller bolt circles have 30° spacing and the larger ones are 15°.

The newly introduced MT Drill from Carmex is designed to drill, chamfer and thread mill a hole in a single operation. Constructed of solid carbide, the 2-flute drill/thread milling cutter, with 45-degree chamfering, reduces cycle times by combining operations and eliminating tool changes.
