Weiler Corp.'s Burr-Rx deburring tools feature black ceramic grain filaments. According to the company, this delivers up to a 400 percent greater edge-cutting action compared to traditional silicon-carbide and aluminumoxide filaments, minimizing cycle times and maximizing media life.
UNITED GRINDING has extended its line of WALTER EWAG technologies for cutting tool production to now include the LASER LINE ULTRA 5-axis machining center that incorporates ultra-short pulse laser technology.
InovaTools offers TSC tools that have been optimally adapted in terms of substrate, geometry and chip clearance for various materials, such as special alloys, hardened steel, tempering steel, INOX, general construction steel, aluminum and plastic.
A better operation starts with better tools. Since its launch in 2013, Kennametal's NOVO digital process planning application has continued growing by supplying complete tool data and process knowledge electronically, reportedly saving process planners, cost estimators, and manufacturing engineers countless hours of catalog lookups and process guesswork. That same intelligence for driving new efficiencies is available on PC and tablet devices in the new Version 1.6.
5ME's new e$CORE software feature generates a monetized version of machine tool performance based on the six span-time categories as defined by AMT — The Association For Manufacturing Technology.
Phillips Precision Products Div. has designed a work holding kit for Vision Inspection that complements its Open-Sight LEAN, fast-swap fixture plate system.
Walther Trowal's washing machine TRT 83x37 automatically removes thick layers of lubricants like grease, as well as other contaminants, from the surface of disassembled equipment components, which must be perfectly clean before they can be reused for the repair and overhaul of equipment.
SpiroGrooving is a method for machining seal ring grooves developed by Sandvik Coromant that reportedly ensures high output of quality components and meets tough security demands.
Kaiser Tool Co. has expanded its line of Thinbit Deepgroove support blade-style tools. The new tools cut internal face grooves with major diameters that start at 1.574" (39.980mm) and a DOC to 1" (25.4mm).
Passing ASTM E595 testing for NASA low outgassing, Master Bond MasterSil 920-LO is a high performance, room temperature vulcanizing silicone for sealing, coating and small encapsulations.
