The Mirage of a Return to Manufacturing Greatness
In America's factories, jobs are inevitably disappearing. But despite the political rhetoric, the problem is not mainly globalization. Manufacturing jobs are on the decline in factories around the world.
NEMI Tool Setter
The NEMI Tool Setter from Northern Engineering & Manufacturing Inc. enables off-line tool measurement, according to the website for the Zimmerman, Minn.-based company. The tool setter reportedly allows users to measure tools in seconds and be ready for the next job while the machine is still in production.
VERO-S WDB Clamping System
The new VERO-S WDB clamping technology modular system transfers the efficiency levels of the SCHUNK VERO-S quick-change pallet system specifically to machine directly clamped workpieces. By using clamping pillars with a modular structure, freely molded parts and other workpieces can be clamped directly on the machine table, without the need of additional equipment.
Knee Mills
Designed for high-precision milling of the same part, Kent USA CNC knee mills are reportedly built to last on heavy-duty, solid foundations. The knee mills come standard with Acu-Rite MillPwr G2. This CNC can be used as a full function DRO, an intelligent power feed or a programmable CNC.
MachiningCloud adds Mitsubishi and Destiny Tool
MachiningCloud GmbH, a product content provider for cutting tools, CNC machines and workholding, today announced partnerships with Mitsubishi Materials and Destiny Tool to make product data from both companies available through its web-based platform, according to an announcement from MachiningCloud issued today.
VITRA Vitrified-Bond Grinding Wheels
VITRA represents the latest generation of vitrified-bonded Hermes precision grinding tools. This newest achievement of the Hermes research laboratories is based on an advanced high-performance, low-fired bond and an optimized microstructure.
FM Series Tools
RobbJack's FM series with chatter-reduction geometry, tackles deep pockets, thin walls and other severe aluminum applications. These high-performance tools reduce or eliminate chatter and ledging, and in many cases, eliminate the need for secondary finishing operations.
DM/MDM Series Endmills
The RobbJack says its DM/MDM series with new carbide and coating combination, eliminates or reduces the need for polishing, reduces wear by 909 percent, holds tighter tolerances and lasts 450 percent longer than comparable carbides and coatings designed for hard metal applications.
A1-303 Series Cutters
RobbJack says its A1-303 series allows you to machine deeper parts, slots and walls in one pass, with minimal chatter and vibration. The A1-303 tool's chatter-reduction geometry is ideal for high-speed machining of aluminum and other nonferrous materials.
EDGE2 Double-Sided DTB Cutters and Inserts
Dapra Corp.'s New EDGE2 double-sided DTB cutters and inserts feature twice the number of usable edges as single-sided button inserts for superior metal removal and value. These thick carbide inserts provide better heat and stress absorption, resulting in longer service life and increased strength, according to the company.
Alberti Air-Driven Turboflex Spindles
During machining, high speed is often associated with heat generation.
Carbide-Roll Burnishing Tools
Carbide-Roll burnishing tools by Elliott Tool Technology produce a mirror-like surface finish while eliminating secondary operations, machining setups, and operator labor and cost. These cost-effective, easy-to-use carbide rolls from Monaghan Tooling Group improve surface irregularities and tool marks, producing optimum surface finishes of 4-20 microinch (0.1 to 0.5 µm).
