Avoiding high wheel wear: Turning Performance
Ask the Grinding Doc column for the August 2010 issue of Cutting Tool Engineering.
Cameras reveal valuable information: People & Companies
Manager's Desk column for August 2010 issue of Cutting Tool Engineering magazine.
Liquid tools
Metalworking fluids can play a signifi cant role in boosting machining productivity when engineered to provide cooling and lubrication.
Grooving plus: Turning Performance
Multifunction groove/turn tools stretch shops' defi nition of a grooving tool.
Nonsmooth move: Drilling Performance
Shops have many choices when texturing—rather than smoothing—part surfaces.
Tapping for oil: Drilling Performance
Like the parts they thread, taps for oil and gas parts can be complicated.
Vacuum assist: Medical Manufacturing
Vacuum workholding is catching on in new and different applications.
CTE 2010 Salary Survey: Industry Trends & Analysis
Read CTE's 2010 Salary Survey to learn which metalworking positions are up and which ones are down in earnings since the 2008 survey, and how benefit packages have changed.
Smooth flight: Medical Manufacturing
Jet-engine manufacturing typically requires through-holes that accommodate fasteners for various components and subassemblies. These through-holes must be chamfered, free of burrs and have radiused edge transitions.
Too much chatter?
A grinding shop trying to grind a 0.006" radius into a hardened steel part with a 60-grit, vitrified-bond, aluminum-oxide wheel was having trouble with burn and huge chatter. Dr. Jeffrey Badger, the host of Cutting Tool Engineering magazine's Grinding Doc Video Series, explains how to handle the situation in the 11th episode of the video series.
Cyclo Cut Max-Flute endmills
The Cyclo Cut Max-Flute high-performance endmills from MAG are for roughing titanium when machining at low torque. When the 16-flute endmills run at 2,037 rpm and 231 ipm, they can achieve metal-removal rates of up to 8"3/min. with 25 ft.-lbs. of torque and 9 hp.
Cyclo Blast
Owners of Fadal vertical machining centers now have the opportunity to maximize machine efficiency and extend tool life with the new CYCLO BLAST coolant through-spindle (CTS) system.
