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.
Power Air Respiratory System e3000
Suhner Industrial Products announces its new Power Air Respiratory System e3000, specially designed for operator protection during high-grit grinding and polishing operations. The system, in combination with the e3000 lightweight helmet from Suhner, offer respiratory protection from the effects of smoke, dust and vapor, as well as operator comfort.
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.
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.
CAM software takes the tension out of manufacturing lead times
Containing large-size cargo for transport is challenging yet necessary to keep bundles intact for individual orders and to keep them from flying off the beds of 18-wheelers at high speeds. Allstrap Inc., Upper Arlington, Ohio, specializes in the manufacture of the steel and poly straps that hold these sizeable loads together, as well as the pneumatic and battery-operated tensioning tools that keep the straps taut.
Lean forward: Toyota’s ‘human-powered’ automation
The online magazine Fast Company reports that while the rest of the auto industry increasingly uses robots in manufacturing, Toyota has taken a contrarian stance by accentuating human craftsmanship: "The central role that people play in this corner of [Toyota's] Georgetown plant is repeated throughout the factory and exemplifies the uniqueness of Toyota's manufacturing philosophy."
Industry giants partner with startup Maketime to bring tech, hardware and services to U.S. manufacturers
Kentucky-based startup MakeTime announced the launch, and participating industry partners, of the MakeTime Shop Advantage Program. The first-of-its-kind program is designed to make technology, sophisticated hardware and business services more accessible to the U.S. manufacturing base, which contributes over $2 trillion to the U.S. economy annually.

As a long time EPPINGER supplier, EXSYS Tool offers a line of high-quality EPPINGER spiral bevel gearboxes. EPPINGER's BT (bevel torque) and BM (bevel maximum torque) compact spiral bevel gears deliver high torque and efficiency for gear applications that require extreme reliability and variability at speeds over 1,000 rpm as is the case for vehicle differentials.
Profilator Line of Gear Machines
GMTA (German Machine Tools of America) represents the Profilator line of gear pointing, rounding, cutting, Scudding, Hard Scudding, deburring and polygon machine tools for North America. These modular machines are use for polygon and slot facing, shifter stop machining, chamfering and deburring of complex automotive and other powertrain gears.
CoroMill 745 Facemilling Cutter
Sandvik Coromant has unveiled a new, high-feed version of the CoroMill 745 facemilling cutter, featuring a 25° entering angle for additional productivity gains when milling steel and cast iron workpieces. The new, high-feed version facilitates even higher metal-removal rates in applications with depths of cut up to 2.8 mm (0.110 inch).
TufBrush 4-Inch Stringer Bead
Osborn introduced its new TufBrush 4-inch stringer bead with up to three times longer life for weld cleanup applications, including root and hot pass, surface preparation, pipe joining and other applications. With an improved, patent-pending design structure, Osborn's TufBrush stringer bead is made from carbon steel material and provides twice the life and 15 percent better material removal than its closest competitor, according to the company.
