Kennametal's NOVO digital process planning application has continued growing by supplying complete tool data (milling, turning, holemaking, tools, toolholders, spare parts, speeds and feeds, and much more) digitally, saving process planners, parts estimators, and manufacturing engineers hours of catalog lookups and process guesswork. Now with seamless connectivity via the Machining Cloud, that same intelligence is driving new efficiencies in part design in CAD/CAM, cutting simulations, presetting, actual machining, inventory management, and e-commerce. Another major step forward is to feed all these real and potential process improvements back into your shop based on actual data gathered from your own equipment and start seeing where capacities change and efficiencies improve. This intelligence and connectivity has led to NOVOsphere, a fundamental step forward in how work gets done.

As a leading manufacturer in the markings and traceability sector, SIC Marking has developed a new portable marking system, the e1-p63c.

OMAX Corp. expanded its Intelli-MAX software suite for OMAX JetMachining Centers with the release of Intelli-MAX 21.

With rising energy costs, new laws and a new environmental conscience, the topic of energy efficiency of production machinery is increasingly being discussed and influences more and more purchasing decisions. The same holds true for filtration systems designed to clean cooling lubricants in the tool manufacturing process. Distributed by oelheld, the filtration specialist VOMAT prides itself to provide systems that filter in an energy efficient way, saving a lot of operating cost, just as its compact design does, by utilizing less expensive production floor space.

Methods Machine Tools Inc. has introduced an all-new Methods-YASDA 5-Axis automated vertical machining center, the PX30i, to meet challenging OEM and job shop requirements.

Creform Corp. has introduced a narrow picking cart design that is stable yet easily maneuvered for operating and passing in space restrictive aisles.

With the GrindSmart528XF, Rollomatic is reportedly taking the process of grinding drills with extreme length-to-diameter ratios to a completely new level.

The KSO from Schunk Inc. is a specially developed single-acting clamping vise and can be easily adjusted to customer-specific specific requirements.

Okuma has introduced its new V760EX vertical lathe, an update to the popular V60R model.

Servo-Robot has developed i-CUBE, a powerful Integrated Robot Sensor System, which is designed to be easily integrated to articulated robots and to provide 3D high speed and high precision part measurements.

Fountain Industries has introduced its ECOMASTER Series 7000 modular aqueous parts washing systems for fast and effective parts cleaning for a range of industrial applications.

ABB Robotics has introduced the IRB 1200, a new family of small robots that features a compact footprint and a large work envelope, providing flexibility, ease of use and short cycle times to a wide range of material handling, machine tending and small parts assembly applications.

This July, Lucifer Furnaces provided a new Model 7GT-M24 Box Furnace to Quantum Machine Works Ltd. in Whitehorse, Yukon Territory, Canada.

Higher productivity through intelligent functions is an increasingly critical factor in the competitive ability of machine tools. Machinery manufacturers are therefore looking for ways to add new and unique functions while protecting their know-how at the same time. Open Core Engineering from Rexroth offers many such functional advancements with the CNC system solution IndraMotion MTX.
