14-Inch Cold Saw
The saw features an advanced gear box design utilizing taper roller bearings, hardened and ground steel gears with a high-quality bronze worm gear in an oil bath. Secure clamping of the workpiece optimizes its accuracy. The saw delivers burr-free straight or angle cuts.
CBN-Tipped Tools
Custom PCD and carbide cutting-tool maker West Ohio Tool continues to exceed customer expectations with a recent expansion to its product and service offerings. For those manufacturers machining ferrous metals, hardened steels and superalloys, the company now offers CBN-tipped tools that boost cutting efficiency and provide extended tool life.
machiNetCloud
Using Remote Access, rather than waiting hours or days for a technician to arrive on site and diagnose problems that must be fixed, authorized users and third-party vendors can monitor machines remotely and access that data in a fraction of the time, enabling them to quickly respond with a technician or spare parts. Should a problem arise, machiNetCloud automatically alerts third-party technicians and internal users by email and SMS, helping reduce downtime and save on maintenance costs.
Chordal Height Gage for Aerospace Applications
The L.S. Starrett Co., a global manufacturer of precision measuring tools and gages, metrology systems and more, has introduced a custom designed and manufactured Chordal Height Gage (a.k.a. DO Gage) to be used for measuring the opening heights of turbine vanes at specific locations to verify that an aircraft engine will get proper air flow.

Ceratizit’s tooling innovations on display at IMTS
At IMTS 2022, Ceratizit USA will highlight several tooling options, including the company's new Dragonskin coating, multifunctional EcoCut tools, a four-flute solid carbide drill, and an in-process machine monitoring and optimization system.
2022.04 Digital Manufacturing Software
The new blisk module provides parameters and settings for creating very smooth toolpaths for multiblade machining. Smooth toolpaths ensure consistent acceleration and, therefore, shorter cycle times. The new option for the flatland cycle enables operators to machine flat undercut areas using slot milling tools.
V-Series Filtration Units
The addition of touchscreen technology to the unit's control boxes will enhance communication with the machine operators. With a simple "touch", operators will be able to display many of the machine functions in real time.
