Buy tools, support schools
For the second year in a row, customers that purchase Big Daishowa cutting tools, toolholders and workholding products will support local manufacturing training programs at the same time.
ES-Bore (Easy Set Bore)
The cartridges provides the possibility to design custom tools incorporating the ES-Bore lay down cartridges, allowing customers to receive special tools within a shorter delivery time and at a lower cost. Additionally, the release of the new fine boring cartridges gives customers the opportunity to build their own special tool because the customer only needs an ES-Bore lay down cartridge that can be mounted onto the boring bar being manufactured.
Turn SCLC-S-P/SDJC-S-P/SVJB-S-P Toolholders
The holders accept CCGT3xx, DCGT3xx and VCGT2xx indexable inserts and provide a high level of indexing accuracy even when turning parts with tight tolerance specifications. The short head dimension enables short clamping and high stability. The shank dimensions are 12 mm × 12 mm and 16 mm × 16 mm.
KASTOsort Tower
The new KASTOsort tower will appeal to, for instance, metalworking companies who already use a high-performance saw such as the KASTOvariospeed oder KASTOtec with or without KASTOsort robots. For an efficient process, the parts must be sorted by order after sawing and handling and placed in appropriate boxes. One of the solutions used to date has been a container carousel with eight pallet spaces on which the robot can independently place and fill the respective boxes. This is a simple and cost-effective solution for buffering manageable quantities of material.
Ceratizit acquires aerospace tooling specialist
Ceratizit SA acquired all shares of Xceliron Corp., a Chatsworth, California-based round tool manufacturer that provides solid-carbide tools for the aerospace and automotive industries in the U.S.
EXAIR engineer certified as compressed air system specialist
Neal Raker, EXAIR Corp.'s application engineer and international sales manager, has earned a certified compressed air system specialist certification.
MELSERVO-J5
The new generation of MR-J5 servo products includes two new servo types, HK-RT/ST, and the addition of high-speed HK-KT/ST servo motors with 3000rpm rated speed. In addition, new features for improved programming have been added including Simple Motion Mode for the RD78G Motion Module, Advanced Synchronous Control, and positioning mode or "point table" for MR-J5G servo amplifiers. Networking and communication have drastically improved with master "follower" operation to transmit commands to master and following axis in a synchronized servo system, auto-detection of IP address on the CC-Link IE TSN network, and support of Line Star and Ring topologies with CC-Link IE TSN.
HxGN Production Machining
The HxGN Production Machining suite will integrate common workflows to help teams reduce error and eliminate redundant tasks at every stage, from job quotation and design review through production, quality assurance, and product delivery. By offering a suite of connected products from the Hexagon ecosystem, manufacturers benefit from simplified procurement, implementation, and support. The suite's flexibility makes it suitable for shops of any size, all types of CNC machinery, and any discrete part and material from one-off prototype to high-volume production runs.
HxGN Mould and Die Suite
The suite supports shops in fully utilizing advanced machine tools, using trusted Hexagon VISI and WORKNC software to help programmers optimise machining cycles and specialised cutting strategies specific to mould production. Prior to machining, CNC programs can be simulated and verified using NCSIMUL, the suite's G-code simulation software, which incorporates the entire machining environment to generate an effective digital twin of the machinery, part, and processes.
BA W03-22 CNC Machining Center and BA Profile
With its high precision and efficiency, the two-spindle BA W03-22 CNC machining center is ideal for producing high-quality work products in medium and large series for the automotive industry. Compared to a single-spindle machine, cycle times can be reduced many times over, ensuring maximum productivity. The BA profile machine concept can easily mill profiles of various materials up to a length of 2,500 mm, for applications in the truck and automotive industries, amongst others.
Lyndex-Nikken hires two regional sales representatives
Lyndex-Nikken, a Mundelein, Illinois-based manufacturer and provider of high-performance machine tool accessories, expanded its sales team with the addition of two regional sales representatives.
P8000 Stepper Drive
The P80360 drive is fully programmable via an intuitive graphical user interface and programming language, available within the Kollmorgen Space software package offered as a free download on the Kollmorgen website. Using these tools, engineers can create simple point-to-point movements as well as linked motion sequences with ease. The versatility and functionality of the P80360 programming software eliminates the need for an external PLC or indexer to perform single-axis motion control, reducing overall system cost.
