Flat stones for fine finishing
Abrasive stones commonly found in machine shops are fine for run-of-the-mill deburring and abrading, but absolutely not suitable for precision stoning. For that, you need a pair of carefully prepared, precision-ground flat stones.
Added dimensions boost accuracy: General Industry Coverage
Part quality can suffer if a machine tool cannot hold tolerances uniformly everywhere in its "working envelope," the box-shaped region that defines a machine's 3D reach when cutting.
Speeding up lubrication: General Industry Coverage
The Röhm Lubritool enables automatic lubrication of tool-clamping sets. And, according to the manufacturer, it performs the job in seconds instead of minutes.
A here-and-now gage: Turning Performance
The Heidenhain Specto 3087 RC length gage reportedly increases productivity and efficiency, particularly in applications where it's not possible to clamp the workpiece on a separate device to inspect it. Instead, the gage integrates a highly accurate measuring process directly into the production process.
On-machine finishing saves valve maker time, money

CHALLENGE: Perform finishing operations during the machining process. SOLUTION: Tool with small, abrasive globules that are permanently mounted to flexible filaments.
Learn and don’t repeat
Whether or not you believe in New Year's resolutions, starting any new year with optimism and a positive attitude is a worthy idea and can't hurt anything. An important element is applying key lessons learned from the previous year.
Setting the stages for Industry 4.0
As CTE Publications Inc. begins the 70th volume of Cutting Tool Engineering, the fundamental principles of cutting and grinding metal remain the same as when the magazine premiered with a different name to serve members of the Society of Carbide Engineers.
From Single-Task Machines to Backflipping Robots: The Evolution of Robots
The history of robots combines the best of science fiction and real life technology. From Isaac Asimov to modern industrial robots, keep reading to explore the fascinating history of robotics.
TC120, TC121 and TC122 Supreme Blind-Hole Taps
Walter has introduced the TC120, TC121 and TC122 Supreme, three new blind-hole taps that combine maximum performance in steel with improved tool life and process reliability. These new entries in the Walter Supreme line have been specially developed for machining steel.
NCG CAM v16.0
NCG CAM Solutions Ltd. UK officially released NCG CAM v16.0. This major release includes a number of new features including Selected Surface Machining for Waterline Passes, Combined Passes for Waterline & Constant Stepover, Tangential Extension for Raster Passes, 5-Axis Flank Machining, as well as many new user interface features and enhancements.
Episode 86: Cup wheel grinding wearing thin
For the 86th episode in the Grinding Doc video series from Cutting Tool Engineering, Dr. Jeffrey Badger encourages shops to true a taper in the wheel when they perform cup wheel grinding.
VOMAT FA 70 Coolant Filtration System
When regrinding tools, clean filtered coolants are an important quality factor. The filtration system manufacturer VOMAT from Germany ensures that clean and pure cooling lubricants are available for an extended period of time to the production process. The compact VOMAT FA 70 is particularly suited to tool regrinding.
