Sim Takes Flight: Design & Engineering
The use of simulation software allows GE Aviation to try out creative approaches to machining—without the risk of costly failures.
Uncommon Knowledge: General Industry Coverage
A joint Sandvik Coromant and Mazak seminar provided counterintuitive information on the metalworking market in general and machining heat-resistant superalloys in particular.
Cutting Round in Circles: General Industry Coverage
A demonstration application shows that trochoidal milling can cut narrow, wavy slots in hardened steel at up to 12 times the normal rates.
Mobile Metrology
Portable coordinate measuring machines provide unprecedented flexibility, plus cost savings.
Dress for Success: General Industry Coverage
There are several ways EDM builders and machine shops can make micro-electrodes for sinker EDMs. One popular way is discharge dressing.
Coating’s Holy Grail
Commercialization of cubic boron nitride coatings has proven elusive, but a two-step process for coating cutting tools with CBN is expected to come to market soon.
Military Strategies: General Industry Coverage
Small shops can take advantage of big opportunities by making military parts.
Smart Weighting
Cutting Tool Engineering Editor Alan Richter's September cover story, titled "Smart Weighting," takes a close look at the practice of "lightweighting." In short, automakers are switching from mild steel and iron to components made of lower weight materials. The article focuses on incorporating parts machined from aluminum and advanced high-strength steels, specifically microalloy steels, including those cut from solid workpieces and near-net shapes.
MicroEDM milling
As the Northeast U.S. representative for SARIX microEDM equipment, Leer Technologies Inc., Claverack, N.Y., spent the better part of EASTEC 2008 showing off the newest features of the SARIX-200 3D MicroEDM Milling machine. Cutting Tool Engineering spent a few minutes with Graham Ruck, sales/applications manager for Leer, at EASTEC this past spring to get a brief overview and demonstration of the microEDM milling machine.
