Endmills that can take the heat
Efficiently machine stainless steel parts without breaking endmills. 6-flute, solid-carbide endmills.
Discounts and increases: People & Companies
I strive to start each year on a positive note, but 2015 sure hasn't taken long to throw us our first challenging management scenario. It requires immediate oversight of rapidly changing economic conditions.
A clear view on vision panels
The cutting zone in a machine tool is dangerous. Hot chips and large quantities of coolant are often safety threats, but a tool rotating at a high speed is an even greater one.
Meeting a challenge: General Industry Coverage
Cast beryllium-aluminum parts.
Fine and stable core: General Industry Coverage
Ceramic core material that improves jet engine fuel efficiency.
Look out below: Drilling Performance
I don't like bringing this up, but two key metalworking markets -- defense and energy -- are in a bit of trouble.
Elements for successful endmilling
When an endmill efficiently makes chips, everybody is happy: the end user, the parts buyer, and the cutting tool manufacturer and distributor. Achieving that by having the tool follow the correct toolpaths and run at productivity-boosting parameters, however, requires an endmill with optimized geometry, substrate and coating.
Cryogenic machining systems can extend tool life and reduce cycle times
Efficient removal of heat from the tool/workpiece interface is the main route to high-productivity machining. Several conventional methods are available to accomplish that -- dry machining, minimum-quantity lubrication, flood coolant and high-pressure coolant -- but cryogenic machining can be added to the list.
Setting the table: Drilling Performance
Table-type horizontal boring mills add versatility to machine shops.
Leaning towards lean: Turning Performance
A journey of waste reduction and continuous improvement for machine shops.
Battling grinding burn
Dear Doc: I battle burn and long cycle times when grinding ODs in bearing. The wheel manufacturer has specified a series of wheel changes to solve the problem, but it means buying a lot of new wheels. What's your take?
Coolant strategy
How close do you need to get the coolant nozzle to the grinding wheel? Dr. Jeffrey Badger offers some direction. About the Grinding Doc Video Series: Thanks to his work as an independent grinding consultant and the author of the "Ask the Grinding Doc" column in Cutting Tool Engineering magazine, Dr.
