Cutting raw materials into usable workpieces
When material dimensions don't conform to necessary workpiece dimensions, there are many ways to cut the right cut.
Killing Time: Drilling Performance
One company instituted a comprehensive plan for reducing setup times and saw its average setup time drop from 252 minutes to 39 minutes. The plan involves everything from standardizing tooling to consolidating raw materials to creating families of parts. The author outlines a step-by-step program that readers can apply to their metalworking setup operations.
Moving large, complex parts calls for specialized equipment
Until I started working for Mitsubishi Hitachi Power Systems Americas, lifting parts was never a consideration in daily production. Previously, the parts I dealt with were small, usually never larger than a dinner plate.
Storing and handling raw material
Shop Operations column from the April 2011 issue of Cutting Tool Engineering magazine offers tips for efficiently storing raw materials.
Optimizing nesting software’s benefits
This month's Get With The Program column in Cutting Tool Engineering looks at the benefits of nesting software for shops that make parts from flat raw materials.
XVCT-AM Inserts
Built on the proven features of the conventional XVCT-AJ inserts, the XVCT-AM inserts introduce an enhanced interface design. This design improves insert retention during high-speed machining while reducing raw material usage for insert production, all without compromising superior cutting performance.
Integrex i-400ST Multitask Machine
Mazak Corp.'s Integrex i-400ST multitask machine is available with two turning spindles, a milling spindle and lower turret – a configuration that can process first and second operations simultaneously or perform required sequential operations on a single workpiece.
Automatic Guided Vehicles
While we still a way to go to achieve autonomous driving on the road, but factories are miles ahead: AGVs (automatic guided vehicles) are already being used in the area of production. They are responsible for intralogistical tasks in production transporting workpieces from unfinished parts to finished parts between the respective stages of production.
iXcenter Automation Cell
INDEX has announced that the iXcenter automation cell is now available with its C Series of turning centers. Docked to the machine and easily slid aside to enable unobstructed access to the work area, iXcenter supports fully automatic machine operation and flexibly manages raw material and finished parts.
Bumotec s191FTLR 7-Axis Turn/Mill Machine
Starrag has demonstrated over the years that the nonexhaustive list of applications performed on its model Bumotec s191FTLR 7-axis turn/mill machine is an evidence of Starrag's expertise in manufacturing complex parts in a single setup whatever raw materials used.
POLYBIO 650 ABF Amine-Free Cutting Fluid
Regulatory constraints, but also operator well-being, encourage industrials to develop increasingly neutral solutions for the working environment. For many years, CONDAT has been committed to finding healthier products and innovates by offering soluble lubricants based on renewable, boron-free raw materials without formalin, chlorine, DEA, DCHA or silicone releasing agents.
Dynamic Pack Optimization Software
TigerStop offers a new software upgrade for TigerTouch called Dynamic Pack Optimization , which nests packs or bundles of material for the greatest yield. Dynamic Pack Optimization enhances raw material usage and reduces scrap waste.
