Maximize Machine Uptime – By Streamlining Tool Setups Offline
Maximize machine uptime by streamlining tool setups offline. Manual tool setups are time consuming, inefficient, and a thing of the past. Today's most efficient shops integrate a presetter to maximize uptime, boost accuracy, ensure consistency, and improve overall machining efficiency - for both mills and lathes. Elbo Controlli Nikken presetters by Lyndex-Nikken provide rock solid precision, making them ideal for workshop environments.
New CAMFIX and Square Turning Holders with Indexable Cartridges
Preventing tool breakage during machining is a significant challenge, leading to tool holder failures and costly replacements. Iscar's CER-M-TURN system addresses this by allowing the replacement of only the affected cartridge when an insert breaks, rather than the entire tool holder. This cost-effective solution ensures compatibility with various cartridges.nnThe system features four coolant inlets: two on the upper jaw and two on the lower jaw, directing coolant precisely to the cutting edge. An enhanced clamping mechanism also helps prevent the rotation or breakage of brittle ceramic, CBN, or PCD inserts, ensuring optimal performance and longevity.
How KPG Machine is Fueling Aerospace & Defense Manufacturing
Tungaloy-NTK is proud to share the story of Ryan Stickle, owner of KPG Machine located in Danielson, Connecticut. Ryan explores his team's dedication towards aerospace machining, and how both quality and efficiency make all the difference. At KPG Machine, heat-resistant alloys such as nickel-based and cobalt-based alloys are processed using Tungaloy's grade AH8015. This video showcases the performance of AH8015 from a real-world perspective and shares the owner's passion for making things that drive the company forward.

Mazak ramps up service with new Phoenix Technical Center
As manufacturing operations expand across the Western United States, Mazak Corp. has grown its service and support network in the region by opening a new Phoenix Technical Center, scheduled for later this year. The facility will give local manufacturers access to process and application engineering expertise, training, and collaboration opportunities for developing new manufacturing solutions.
5-axis universal machining center
The GROB G150 5-Axis Universal Machining Center from Grob Systems Inc. is the company's smallest horizontal machining center in its modular G-series Universal line. According to the company, the G150 provides high precision, complex machining in a compact size with a smaller work envelope. Featuring direct and absolute position encoders in all axes and an innovative machine cooling process, the machining center provides exceptional contouring accuracy.
Zero-point clamping modules with universal interface
The APS 138 E and APS 138 I zero-point clamping modules from SMW Autoblok are engineered to deliver <0.005 mm repeatability, maximum rigidity, and universal interface compatibility across nearly all zero-point systems currently in the market.

Mazak achieves production milestone
Mazak has built its 40,000th machine at the company's Mazak iSmart Factory in Florence, Kentucky. The 518,320-square-foot facility, situated on Mazak's nearly 1-million-square-foot manufacturing campus, produces many of Mazak's most popular machine models, including its Quick Turn Series machines, VTC Series machines, and Ez Series of turning and milling centers. It is home to the company's U.S. manufacturing technology R&D efforts.
Toolholding system for large-diameter tools
The powRgrip (PG) 48 toolholding system from Rego-Fix USA is suited for large-diameter tools and aggressive machining. For cutters up to 40mm (1.500") in diameter, the company says the PG 48 holder ensures concentricity and total indicated runout (TIR) with deviations of less than 3 µm (0.0001") for tool lengths up to 3 x diameter and length pre-adjustment with a repeat accuracy of less than 10 µm (0.0004").
