PCD Cutting Tools
West Ohio Tool Co. says its PCD tools have been proven to reduce costs, setup times and changeovers while maintaining the tight tolerances required in today's manufacturing operations. Several of the new cross-center tip drills continue to run in high-silicon aluminum with over 700,000 hits, showing no sign of wear, and the helical diamond-veined endmills have logged in excess of 10,000 linear inches trimming composite materials.
Tool Repair vs. Tool Remanufacturing
Traditional manual indexable tool repair methods can place limitations on the feasibility of repairing more than moderate pocket damage. GKI says its process using 4- and 5-axis CNC machines removes the damage completely and replaces it with new metal, resulting in a superior-quality tool while enhancing GKI's ability to repair tooling that other repair houses would likely turn away as "beyond repair."
Scissor Lift Tables, Turntables and Tilt Tables
Verti-Lift presents a full line of scissor lift tables, turntables and tilt tables with virtually any type of conveyors built in to optimize production, ergonomics and operator safety. The company works closely with distributors and system integrators to design, build and integrate its material handling equipment with ball transfer conveyors, gravity roller conveyors, heavy-duty chain driven live roller conveyors (CDLR) and more.
Narrow-Contour HTC Clamping Chucks
MAPAL has expanded its program of narrow-contour HTC (High-Torque Chuck) clamping chucks, whose narrow shapes are produced without a restrictive brazed joint thanks to additive manufacturing. These new chucks can directly clamp diameters of 3, 4 and 5 mm, also allowing hydraulic clamping chucks to be used on the microscale, for example in medical technology or the timepiece and jewelry industry.
ATC Series of Electro-spindles
ITI Tooling Co. Inc.'s ATC series of Electro-spindles with a built-in multistation tool carrier have been developed specifically to gain the optimal performance on production machines and robots when multiple operations or redundant tooling is required.
s181 Mill-Turn Center
Bumotec has launched the s181 turn-mill center, a compact cost effective multifunction machine targeted at industries such as micromechanic, aerospace, medical and surgical instruments, as well as watch and jewelry. Derived from the well-known Bumotec s191 linear CNC turn-mill center, the new s181 is a 5- to 9-axis unit targeted at single-setup machining of complex and high-precision workpieces.
New Lines of Microdrills
GMauvaisUSA has introduced three new lines of microdrills designed specifically for the electronics connector industries. The 3200 series 3-flute long reamer-drills, 3100 series short cross drills and 1100 series half-round gundrills are all in solid carbide and in a wide range of standard microsize ranges.
Index Punch Broach Holder Series
Hassay Savage Co. has introduced a new, precision index punch broach holder series for Swiss-style machining centers. Precision made of 17-4 stainless, this holder will provide strength, rigidity and accuracy for all punch and index broaches with a shank size of 8mm, according to the company.
Short, NC Spot Drills
Hassay Savage – Magafor has introduced a new line of short, NC spot drills specifically designed for use in Swiss-style machining centers. Made from M2 HSS, they are designed with shorter overall lengths that are well-suited for use with all Swiss-style machines.
Carbide Microscale Endmills
Manufactured at its facility in Cleveland, Melin Tool launches a wide range of styles and sizes of carbide microscale endmills that target applications found in mold shops, medical component and instrument manufacturers, and EDM departments. With cutting diameters from 0.005" and lengths up to 30 diameters deep, Melin reports outstanding performance in titanium and aluminum alloys, graphite and steels and stainless alloys less than 40 HRC.
