Future challenges
Sandvik Coromant takes a closer look at the macro trends influencing the future of the manufacturing industry in a brief video report that identifies four areas of special interest: rapid urbanization, sustainability, new advanced materials and new technologies.
Heavy metal machining
This brief video report features a Mitsui Seiki USA Inc.'s 5-axis trunnion-style machine producing an aerospace part as well as a MAG NBV 700 5X 5-axis machine trochoidal milling a titanium blisk.
Rust never grinds
In this 38th episode of Cutting Tool Engineering magazine's Grinding Doc Video Series, host Dr. Jeffrey Badger helps a shop deal with the brown, yellow and blue marks that keep appearing on an unground surface. He addresses the difference between oxidation burn, or rust, and genuine thermal damage.
Kennametal, Hydro partner on new pump
Kennametal Extrude Hone, Irwin, Pa., and Hydro, Chicago, have entered into a strategic alliance to provide pump customers in the power generation industry with one global service and support unit. The primary benefits for customers include improved efficiency and performance, longer service intervals and engineered upgrade options, according to the companies.
Finding a 5-axis solution
Tim St. Martin knew there had to be a better way of fixturing parts on his company's 5-axis machine tools. "We'd visited some of our suppliers and saw how they were holding parts on their 5-axis machines," said the senior manager of manufacturing engineering for Carlsbad, Calif.-based orthopedic implant manufacturer Alphatec Spine Inc.
Cutting costs with tool reconditioning
High-performance cutting tools can provide increased efficiency and productivity, but they can also be a drain on tooling budgets. Cost-justifying these tools often requires regrinding and reconditioning them when they are worn or damaged. A successful reconditioning program reduces tooling costs by extending life as long as possible.
Still more tips for a manual mill
Continuing and concluding the theme of my previous two columns, this month's installment provides additional tips for enhancing the operation of a manual milling machine.
The chase is over: Turning Performance
Prevent sealed bearings from overheating in a live tooling head. A live tooling head with coolant-fed bearings.
Fast to the finish: General Industry Coverage
Enhance PCD cutting tool design while decreasing processing times. SOLUTION: A 6-axis rotary erosion machine.
Doing the shop hop: People & Companies
Over the past few months, I've experienced an increasing number of friends, acquaintances and even referred strangers hitting me up for jobs. Most ask about employment opportunities for their kids, dad, brother or even neighbor.
The science of milling sounds
Milling sounds range from loud to quiet, and experienced machinists often use those sounds to judge what is occurring in the cutting zone. It is difficult to position a sensor such as an accelerometer or a displacement probe close to the cutting zone, and it is often a challenge to see the cutting zone, but the sounds are pervasive.
Out with the old: General Industry Coverage
A model-based design and verification method for reducing the time to build complex vehicles and aircraft.
