KONTEC KSC Mini Small Parts Vise
The KONTEC KSC mini is the vise of choice for flexible use in efficient blank and finish part machining. Conversion on a larger clamping range is even possible without requiring additional accessories. Different jaw widths of 45 and 70 mm can be used on the same basic vise, allowing optimal adjustment to different clamping tasks.
GWS Tool Group acquires Indexable Cutting Tools of Canada
GWS Tool Group in Tavares, Florida, finalized its third acquisition in 2021 and its first international acquisition with the purchase of Indexable Cutting Tools Inc.
Star SU’s John O’Neil elected to Gear Research Institute board
John O' Neil, engineering manager for gear tools at Star SU has been elected by the Gear Research Institute to its Board of Trustees for the 2021- 2023 term.
Optoquick Measuring System
The new Optoquick is well-suited for measuring transmission shafts where spline and gear features, such as OBR, ODB, pitch run-out, etc., need to be measured together with traditional measurement of the solid bearing portions. It combines a touch measuring sensor with non-contact optical scanning to provide rapid and accurate measurements while the part is rotating. Design to operate on the shop floor next to the machine, it helps speed up the work-in-progress operations and eliminates time wasted in moving parts across the shop floor.
Semi-Automatic Horizontal Band Saw
The high-performance saw is ideal for multiple jobs with low volume production requirements plus it offers the best cost per cut solution. The massive saw head design features extra-large cast iron wheels that deliver precise, extremely accurate straight and miter cuts.
P6006 Insert for Exchangeable-Tip Drills
The P6006 insert can perform up to 10 x Dc without the need for a pilot drill. It features a protective chamfer on the insert with HIPIMS-PVD coating, and the wear resistant WPP25 grade which leads to maximum tool life in stable conditions. Further, the insert has a 100° prism for the contact point in the body, and a 140° point angle with new geometry and thinner web. Optimum wear detection is provided by its light-colored yellow coating.
CoroPlus Connected
CoroPlus® Connected is used alongside the existing Silent Tools™ Plus, a digitally connected damped boring bar from Sandvik Coromant. Having been awarded first place in the International Manufacturing Technology Show (IMTS) Production Innovation contest in 2018, Silent Tools™ Plus helps customers by providing visibility at the cutting zone in internal turning applications with long overhang.
Okuma partners with community college on training academy
The 53,000 sq. ft. center was built specifically for industrial machine tool training and supports flexible machine layouts and configurations.
Sharpening tools overnight with Vollmer Automation
The global pandemic has impacted businesses around the world, but for Aiguisatek, a Canada-based sharpening service, the impact was compounded by stringent local regulation in the Quebec province that all but shut down manufacturing in the area. Automation technology solved these challenges.
Universal RJ45 Adapter
ILME has several types of MIXO RJ45 adapters to meet the needs of industrial data transmission. The new MIXO RJ45 adapter (CX-01-J8UM) module is designed to accommodate a variety of RJ45 patch cords and drastically reduce the assembly time at the manufacturing site. The new RJ45 adapter is for fitted any RJ45 cord plugs with the maximum dimension, 34 mm (L) x 13.5 mm (W) x 9.5 mm (H). End users can simply place the patch cord into the adapter and secure it by the insulating latch: Click and Fix.
3D Printed PCD Monoblock Tool Bodies and Chip Deflectors
With 3D printing, there is about a 30% reduction in tool weight, yet it has the equivalent torsional stiffness of a steel ground body tool. Lightweighting can play a big role in large, heavy tools that take a toll on the machine spindle, helping to reduce preventative maintenance. These improvements can be significant when producing aerospace and automotive components, including electric vehicle parts, where existing spindle interfaces are not always ideal for some of the size/weight of tools.
G350 Universal Machining Center
The GROB Systems G350 Universal Machining Center delivers high productivity, optimum availability, and excellent maintenance access. What's more, it features a unique machine concept; three linear and two rotary axes permit 5-axis simultaneous machining and simultaneous interpolation. The machine's unique axis arrangement permits upside down machining, offering almost limitless possibilities for part machining. Meanwhile, the horizontal spindle position permits the longest possible Z-travel path and optimum chip fall.
