Sen. Ron Johnson visits Performance Micro Tool
U.S. Sen. Ron Johnson, R-Wis., recently visited Performance Micro Tool, a manufacturer of micro tools in Janesville, Wis. The senator said he intends to give American manufacturing a boost by easing regulatory burdens and smoothing tax rules, which are among his major campaign platforms.
3-axis Milling Postprocessor
CNC Software Inc., producers of Mastercam CAD/CAM software, announced a 3-axis milling postprocessor that will unleash the highest productivity on Sinumerik-controlled machine tools. The new postprocessor was developed utilizing the technical expertise of Siemens CNC engineers.
KONTEC KSC-F Single-Acting Clamping Vises
The SCHUNK KONTEC KSC-F single-acting clamping vises with fixed jaw, achieves high clamping forces at comparably low torque. Due to the 160 degree "Quick Clamp" force intensifier, workpieces are clamped in less than a second, and the vise is safely locked, making retightening with a torque wrench no longer necessary.
CoroMill 415 High-Feed Milling Cutter Offers Enhanced Security
A high-feed milling cutter for diameters 13–25 mm and 0.500–1.000 inches has been introduced by Sandvik Coromant. Among the advantages of using the new CoroMill 415 are enhanced security, thanks to iLock insert seat interface technology, and high metal-removal rates as a result of high cutter density and high feed capacity.
