CAMWorks 2016
Geometric Ltd. announced the addition of automated "Machine to the Mean" capabilities when working with Solidworks parts and assembly files that contain tolerance—or geometric dimensioning and tolerance (GD&T)—information.
Special Dual-Contact Toolholder
Briney Tooling Systems worked closely with a manufacturer to develop a special dual-contact, CAT 50, stick turning toolholder for an Okuma MacTurn 550 mill/turn center. The customer had some special turning stick tools that were 1.5-inches square and there was no standard for the lathe stick tools.
CleverClamp System
The basic rails of the CleverClamp system are calibrated to fit the EROWA UPC and EROWA MTS production tooling systems. The range of clamping elements can be quickly positioned on the serrated base rails and be used either horizontally or vertically.
Cold Air Guns
Vortec cold air guns use vortex tube technology and filtered compressed air to produce sub-freezing air as low as -30 deg F (-34 deg C) for numerous industrial spot cooling applications. With no moving parts to wear out, cold air guns require no electricity at the target, just a compressed air source.
V Series Vertical Lathes
Giddings & Lewis V Series vertical lathes, with tables from 800 to 2500 mm, are a productive addition to any shop floor. Carrying the Giddings & Lewis tradition of robust construction and precision, the V Series is designed with industry-leading functionality and reliability at an affordable price.
Taper-Face Toolholders
Seco has added a new range of taper-face toolholders to meet machinists' increasing needs for higher production and process reliability. These new options provide two surfaces of contact to offer increased rigidity and consistency compared with standard holders when machining complex parts at high cutting parameters.
EcoCDuty Cleaning System
Heat-treating contractors, metalforming shops and companies from the automotive and aircraft industries in particular require cost-efficient part cleaning and degreasing equipment capable of handling high capacities. Addressing this demand, Dürr Ecoclean has developed an innovative solvent-based cleaning system, the large-chamber EcoCDuty.

Inventing enthusiasm for manufacturing
When Zach Kaplan visited the White House last June for a National Week of Making event, he had no idea it would mean giving away 50 of his company's 3D carvers (tabletop milling machines).
Putting a forklift into the industrial Internet of Things
Forklifts—the workhorses of the plant floor—are more valuable than ever at ITAMCO (Indiana Technology and Manufacturing Cos.). The Plymouth, Ind.-based manufacturer of gears and other precision components connected its forklifts to the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT), which integrates machine tools and other manufacturing equipment with networked sensors and software.
Amount of U.S. reshoring debated
Has the reshoring train left the station or not? According to the second annual U.S. Reshoring Index from global management consultants A.T. Kearney, the answer is a resounding "no." In 2015, the index, at -115, indicates that reshoring of manufacturing activities to the U.S. has not kept up with offshoring.
