Episode 70: Chipping away
Is grinding a chip-formation process similar to turning? That's the question fielded by Dr. Jeffrey Badger, grinding consultant and author of the Ask The Grinding Doc column in Cutting Tool Engineering magazine.
Toolcraft Invests in Additional Multitask Machines
For the production of precision parts, toolcraft covers the complete process chain – from construction through manufacturing to quality control and nondestructive surface testing. The company's state-of-the-art machine pool ensures high-quality production.
ASL-100 Slant-bed CNC Lathe
The ASL-100 from Ganesh Machinery is a slant-bed CNC Lathe with automatic load/unload capability for unattended operation on 2"- to 1/4"-diam. parts up to 2.2 lbs. The parts enter and depart the machine on individual fabric conveyer belts.
CNC Shank Boring Bars
Vermont Indexable Tooling announced the release of its patent-pending LS boring bar line. These boring bars are ready for work, equipped with a CNC shank and overall geometries that are designed to bore through a multitude of materials.
Surfox Wand
Walter Surface Technologies announced the launch of the new Surfox Wand, compatible with the Surfox 304 MIG and TIG weld cleaning system. The new Surfox Wand was designed with the end user in mind.
QNPHD Linear Piezo Nanopositioning Stages
Aerotech's QNPHD linear piezo nanopositioning stages provide the benefits of both a stage and actuator in one compact, high-stiffness package. With a direct-metrology, capacitive sensor feedback option, high resonant frequencies, and high load capacity, the QNPHD is ideal for a range of high-speed and high-precision applications, such as scanning probe microscopy, disc-drive testing and semiconductor wafer articulation.
Microscale Engraving Cutters
BIG KAISER introduces a series of new micro engraving cutters developed and built by its partner Sphinx (Derendingen, Switzerland). Building on Sphinx's microtooling expertise, the solid-carbide engraving cutters' sharp, positive cutting geometry promotes burr-free surface finishes and smooth transitions.
Cool Flash System
Overheated cutting edges cause chip welding, tool chipping and ultimately decreased tool life. To compensate, operators frequently reduce spindle speeds or increase their consumption of cutting tools. Both options prove inefficient, as machining takes longer and the expense of constantly replacing dull tools can drain your bank account.
5 ways to extend CNC spindle life
For most manufacturers, the productivity of their CNC equipment can be measured in fractions of seconds when it comes to things like cutting or grinding cycle times and the intervals between tool changes. The performance of the spindle—the workhorse of the CNC machine—has a dramatic impact on that productivity.
Fine Filtration Systems
Modern cutting tools that meet today's growing demands for tolerance, performance and efficiency can only be produced economically under optimal production conditions. A look behind the scenes at the global tool manufacturer, Jongen Tool GmbH, and their new production facility in Germany reveals the technical complexity involved in manufacturing inserts and solid carbide end mills with consistent high quality.
Robolink D Modular Robotic Kit
For cost-effective, customizable robotic systems, igus has further updated the Robolink D modular robotic kit with new strain wave gearings in two installation sizes. The gearing, available as an individual component or with integrated NEMA motor, consists of an outer ring gear and flexible, wear-resistant inner ring gear made from self-lubricating, wear resistant iglide plastic.
TRU TEMP Black-Oxide Finish
High-value tooling such as toolholders, workholding and turret press tooling takes on an attractive, protective black oxide finish when finished with the TRU TEMP low-temperature, nonpolluting black-oxide system from Birchwood Technologies. Extremely durable, the TRU TEMP process provides a satin black magnetite coating, 20 millionths thick (0.54 micron) with no effect on component material hardness or tensile strength.
