Swarf is telling you something
Swarf, which is the result of particles being removed when grinding hard or difficult-to-machine materials, tells a story.
3D-printed bone drill improves surgeries
Metal laser melting has made possible a number of groundbreaking developments in the medical field. One example is a 3D-printed bone drill that, unlike some traditionally manufactured drills, is designed not to damage tissue during surgery.
Lead Angle: Targeting markets high and low
The boost in productivity that the latest cutting tools provide enables manufacturers to reduce the amount fracking companies pay for parts.
Rush Machinery and Grinding Doc collaboration
For the 83rd episode of Cutting Tool Engineering’s Grinding Doc video series, Dr. Jeffrey Badger visits with Rush Machinery in Rushville, N.Y., to begin a three-part series devoted to establishing scientific truing parameters.
Pratt & Whitney adds new fan blade manufacturing facility to Lansing plant
Pratt & Whitney's new 93,000 square-foot facility adds to an already existing GTF fan blade production line in Lansing. The company's AutoAir facility has had a tenfold ramp-up in the past 20 months, and has increased its workforce from just over 200 to almost 700.
2017 U.S. cutting tool consumption up 7.1%
July U.S. cutting tool consumption totaled $170.95 million according to the U.S. Cutting Tool Institute (USCTI) and AMT – The Association For Manufacturing Technology. This total, as reported by companies participating in the Cutting Tool Market Report (CTMR) collaboration, was down 8.4% from June's $186.57 million and up 16.0% when compared with the total of $147.43 million reported for July 2016.
Expertise, new technology shared at Makino’s Die/Mold Technology Expo
The first day of Makino Corp.'s two-day 2017 Die/Mold Technology Expo included technology seminars, economic prognosticators, and demonstrations on more than 23 state-of-the-art machines at the company's U.S. headquarters in Auburn Hills, Mich. The company also unveiled a new vertical machining center for true 5-axis continuous processing.
Synova SA launches 5-axis MCS 500 for 3D machining and hole drilling
Synova SA, Duillier, Switzerland, a provider of advanced laser-cutting systems, has developed a CNC machine with 5-axis capability to satisfy stringent technical requirements in the aerospace and energy sectors. As engine manufacturers continuously seek to improve performance, high-quality machining of turbine engine components and process stability in production are critical to success.
Episode 7: Taming chatter
In the seventh episode of The CNC Chef, Bob Warfield of the CNCCookbook outlines steps that will help you tame chatter.
Simplified CAM for advanced EDM wire cutting
The cutting of intricate profiles and odd angles is the domain of wire EDM machining processes, capable of creating ultraprecise shapes and superior finishes that are near-impossible to machine by other means. However, just because a shape is difficult to machine does not mean it should be hard to program.
Sensing-Saf-Start Motor Controls
Drills, mills, lathes, grinders, saws and other 120V machinery can abruptly shut down during operation due to a power interruption. When an unintentional shut down takes place, it is critically important that a machine does not automatically restart, catching the operator by surprise and leading to a serious accident.
FZU 5-Axis Gantry Mill
The demands for prototype, tool and mold making are increasing. Only those who can supply high-quality output, quickly and flexibly, can succeed against the powerful competition worldwide. Zimmermann is responding to this trend with the new FZU.
