CTE Booth Visit with UNISIG @ Eastec
Tom Bruders, regional sales manager for UNISIG deep hole drilling systems, discussed the company's UNE6 2i gundrilling machines that feature automation options and two independent spindles, and are aimed at the medical manufacturing market. n
Optimism abounds at HxGN Live Global 2023
Sustainability. Autonomy. Collaboration. These topics were amply covered at Stockholm-headquartered Hexagon AB's HxGN Live Global 2023 conference, which took place June 12-15 at the Caesars Forum conference center in Las Vegas.
Iscar’s New IHP Sumocham Heads Optimized for Drilling Non-Alloy/Carbon Steel
Iscar continues to provide high performance drilling solutions with the IHP drill head geometry and edge prep are optimized for drilling Non-Alloy / Carbon Steel. The design's strengthened cutting edge not only extends tool life but works well in non-rigid applications where other geometries may not be as suitable. The drill heads are available in IC948 TiAlCrN PVD grade coating in the following size range 394" to .866" in .004" increments. The IC948 coating applied on a hard cemented carbide sub-micron substrate offers high oxidation and chipping resistance due to the special multi-layer structure of the coating.
Camp CHAMP debut
A hands-on educational program designed to spread awareness about careers in manufacturing, Camp CHAMP debuted as part of the Leyden Student Summit held last month at East Leyden High School in Franklin Park, Illinois. Of the 170 middle school students who signed up for the two-day summer career-oriented educational event, 30 chose to experience first-hand what it takes to make pens out of wood using tabletop machinery. The students watched and assisted with various operations as they moved from one station to the next. There was a tabletop lathe, a rotary grinder, a tabletop milling machine, an assembly station, a laser marking machine and, finally, an inspection system.
RF 100 Diver End Mills: Ramping, drilling, slotting, roughing & finishing
RF 100 Diver has established itself with customers that require high flexibility. The Ratio endmill covers five operations with one tool. It can perform drilling, ramping, slotting, roughing and finishing operations. As well as a program extension, Guhring is now introducing an innovation in the coolant delivery sector: internal cooling optimized for both milling and drilling.
Multifunctional Measurer: Mitutoyo America’s Roundtracer Extreme
View a video presentation about Mitutoyo America Corp.'s RTX Roundtracer Extreme, which the company designed to provide fast, accurate measurement of workpiece roundess, contour and surface roughness. The video is presented here as a supplement to the Machine Technology column, "Multifunctional Measurer," which appears in the July 2023 issue of Cutting Tool Engineering magazine.
Tiger 2.0 Cutting, Grinding and Combo Wheels
In addition to offering fast cutting speed, Tiger 2.0 wheels last up to 40% longer to increase efficiency in operations' cutting and grinding applications. The wheels feature an award-winning blotter design that includes an industry-first, patent-pending Optimum Use Line. The line is a visual indicator that helps the operator use the wheel to its full life. This innovation reduces changeovers, allowing for greater productivity while also reducing waste and abrasive spend. In some cases, users experience three times more efficiency than with their previous abrasives.
Clevis Brackets and Fork Kits
WDS' clevis fork brackets enable ISO 6432 actuators to connect and drive a host of machinery or devices. Available in 6 mm and 8 mm bracket pin sizes, three connection styles are available. The detent pull pin features a spring-loaded ball that secures the fastener, providing a high level of security, while the quick release pin enables easy fastening and removal.
Digital Assistance Systems
Remote Service offers simple and fast assistance. For example, in the event of machine downtime, UNITED GRINDING North America customers can request service with the press of a button. The Service Monitor relieves those responsible for maintenance by clearly displaying all the important maintenance tasks based on the current machine's operating hours. Production managers can monitor the production output of the machinery at any time using the Production Monitor.
F.0100-ir Marking System
The ultrashort pulse laser marks in the deepest, matt and non-reflective black without generating significant heat input on the workpiece. Even through further processing steps, such as passivation, the marking remains reliably legible and corrosion resistant. Due to the very short pulses down to the femtosecond range, in combination with high pulse energies, the system marks various stainless steels, titanium and a variety of plastics.
e.MMCs and SD Memory Cards
The EM-30 product series (153 ball BGA) complies with e.MMC-5.1 specifications and is fully backward compatible. It is designed for an extended temperature range of -40°C to 85°C and is suitable for use in harsh environmental conditions. The S-56(u) SD and microSD memory cards attain sequential read and write data rates of 95 MB/s and 74 MB/s, respectively. The cards are optimized for high-performance applications with random read IOPS of 2,200 and random write IOPS of 1,300.
Ask CTE Contributors about Deburring
Based on the "Deburring and Chamfering" feature article published in the June issue of Cutting Tool Engineering magazine, this webinar uses the article by James Engineering as a launching point to address a few audience questions about deburring as well as the ROI calculations to consider if you plan to move from a manual deburring process to an automated system capable of handling high volume.n
