Burr Oak Tool slashes production time with CAM software
Burr Oak Tool Inc. is a leading producer of dies used to produce two types of fins for window air conditioners. Evaporator fins on the side of the air conditioner inside the window transfer heat from the inside air to the cold refrigerant flowing through the evaporator coil.
Weiler Abrasives promotes John Hobbs to director, national accounts
Cresco, Pennsylvania-based Weiler Abrasives, a leading provider of abrasives, power brushes and maintenance products for surface conditioning, announced the promotion of John Hobbs to director, national accounts.
Industrial control robotics – the next great leap in manufacturing and automation
The industrial control robotics systems perform, control and monitor a wide range of industrial operations and automated processes. The objective is to improve the overall quality, reliability and precision of these processes.
HH-30D Hybrid Hexapod
The HH-30D Hybrid Hexapod was developed by ALIO Industries to address the inherent performance limitations of conventional hexapods. ALIO's patented 6-degree-of-freedom (6-DOF) design seamlessly blends and takes advantage of the strengths of serial and parallel kinematic structures while avoiding their weaknesses.
QC Modular Toolholder
Seco Tools has introduced a modular toolholder system for manufacturers seeking to improve their productivity with Swiss-style machining. The system enables fast, easy and repeatable insert indexing and tool changes outside of tight machine work spaces. The QC (quick-change) Toolholders also feature Seco Jetstream Tooling and Jetstream Tooling Duo technology for optimal chip control, high-quality surface finishes and extended tool life.
A short story about the parabolic flute drill
I received an email from Lynn Fifer, a retired cutting tool professional and CTE reader since 1967, who shared his recollections about the development of the parabolic flute drill. Fifer said the development occurred in 1950s at the old Mohawk Tools Inc., Montpelier, Ohio, well before he started with the toolmaker in 1967.
Solar Atmospheres, Western PA invests in a new microscope
Hermitage, Pennsylvania-based Solar Atmospheres of Western PA (SAWPA) now offers in-house metallographic testing, with its purchase of a Zeiss AxioVert A1 Inverted Materials Microscope, with an accompanying Axiocam digital camera and Zen Core Materials Analysis software package. The investment represents the continued commitment by SAWPA to anticipate and meet customers' needs.

A-311 Line of Low-Profile Planar XY Air Bearing Stages
PI adds to its compact A-311 line of low-profile planar XY air bearing stages. PI's U.S.-based air bearing R&D and manufacturing teams have created two new versions with travel ranges of 200mm x 200mm and 300mm x 300mm. Planar scanning stages are suitable for semiconductor inspection, laser marking, optical metrology and other precision motion applications.
SG-1645 and SG-2060 Burr-Free Electrochemical Surface Grinding Machines
Electrochemical grinding (ECG) solution provider Tridex Technology, a Glebar Company, provides a burr-free solution for grinding the teeth in arthroscopic shavers with its SG-1645 and SG-2060 burr-free electrochemical surface grinding machines.
EcoCvelox Parts Cleaner
As a cost-efficient answer to continually increasing demands on the absence of burrs and particulate cleanliness, Ecoclean has developed the EcoCvelox system. Its modular design allows a custom configuration and subsequent expansion, at any time, of equipment from a single source to provide a combined high-pressure deburring, cleaning and drying capability.
Work Cell Operations Software Domain
Fastems Manufacturing Management Software (MMS) has proven to be a powerful solution for planning, forecasting, controlling, visualizing and monitoring automated manufacturing processes. The new MMS Domain, Work Cell Operations (WCO), makes it possible to include all manual production tasks, work cells and stand-alone machines in the IT-supported planning, control and monitoring of production.
