DMDII launches Cyber Hub
As the factories for U.S. manufacturers are increasingly becoming digitized and connected, the surface for cyberattacks is broadening. To allow experimentation on cybersecurity technology for the factory floor, the Digital Manufacturing and Design Innovation Institute, Chicago, officially launched its "Cyber Hub for Manufacturing" earlier this month. DMDII reported that the U.S.
Remove oil A.S.A.P. to improve your process, profits
Today's manufacturing and industrial processing facilities face intense competitive pressures, challenging economic conditions and stringent government regulations. To thrive, companies must engage in operational "best practices" designed to continuously improve process and product quality and reduce costs.
DMDII launches ‘Cyber Hub for Manufacturing’
The Digital Manufacturing Design and Innovation Institute (DMDII) announced today the launch of a "Cyber Hub for Manufacturing" with $750,000 in seed funding from the U.S. Department of Defense (DOD).
E2.10 Energy Chain
A safe energy supply with highly dynamic cable travel is particularly important for machines with confined spaces. Therefore, igus has developed the small-sized E2.10 energy chain from the E2.1 series. The e-chain has an inner height of only one centimeter and an outer height of one and a half centimeters, making it suitable for the smallest of spaces.
Standard Version of ROBODRILL α-D21iB5 Vertical Machining Center
The standard version ROBODRILL α-D21iB5 is FANUC's high-speed, high-precision small machining center with FANUC standard CNC installed and spindle taper size of No. 30. FANUC says it has engineered the ROBODRILL machine center to address all machining needs for its class.
Superfine-abrasive waterjetting: General Industry Coverage
Water Jet Sweden recently introduced the FAWJ Micro Head package for shops that use the company's standard machines and want to make highly precise, narrow cuts that don't need to meet extremely tight tolerances.
Staying on the cutting edge
With its release of new tool bodies and inserts, Walter USA LLC significantly expands its cutter family for milling large threads, the T2711/T2712 system.
A ‘liquid’ tool change
END USER: Backerworks Manufacturing LLC, (505) 342-2943, www.backerworks.com. SOLUTION PROVIDERS: Axis Machine Services LLC, (505) 206-2726, www.axismachineservices.com; Houghton International Inc., (800) 666-4684, www.houghtonintl.com.

Factors to consider before bringing abrasive waterjetting in-house
Before bringing abrasive waterjetting in-house, shops should know it is a deceptively simple process that demands a great deal of thought, effort and planning to ensure a reasonably quick return on investment and increase in operational productivity.
Gear pioneer Kate Gleason was way ahead of her time
With respect to the norms of the 19th century, Kate Gleason was way ahead of her time. In honor of Women's History Month, CTE remembers groundbreaker Catherine "Kate" Anselm Gleason (1865-1933). During the restrictive culture of her time, she helped shape the global cutting tools industry as a sales engineer for her family's gear cutting machinery business.
Advanced metalworking fluid filtration aids finer finish
As demand grows for finer surface finishes and tolerance specifications become tighter—and competition continues to intensify—parts manufacturers are adopting advanced fluid filtration technologies to achieve their machining and grinding goals.
Moldmakers tout benefits of aluminum molds for production
The use of aluminum molds for production molding applications is the "biggest trend I'm seeing in moldmaking," said a longtime manufacturer of cutting tools.
