Understanding coatings and how they lower machining costs
This article provides basic information about the coatings and processes used to coat cutting tools, dies, wear parts and other components. HSS, carbide, tool steels and stainless steels are among the most commonly coated materials.
Shop credits growth to focus on machining large parts
OEMs and other manufacturers frequently require special machines for production and assembly purposes. About half of Coldwater Machine Co.'s business involves building those machines, but few off-the-shelf components are available. Therefore, Coldwater machines the components in-house at its 132,500-sq.-ft. manufacturing facility in Coldwater, Ohio. And, many of the parts are large.
Making the most of tired CNC machining centers
While milling has gone high performance, the newest machining centers at your shop were installed when Bill Clinton was president, and the oldest one still uses paper tape. So how might you benefit from emerging high-tech milling strategies?
Reducing hydroplaning forces while grinding
A shop asks CTE's Grinding Doc about taper that shows up when cylindrical-OD grinding. The shop seeks advice to mitigate the problem.
Part-to-part consistency key to shop’s success
When prompted by requests from customers for products that their existing manufacturing supply chains were not producing, Dan Olsen made the leap into manufacturing.
Actions to keep spindles spinning
Spindles must run at the correct speeds and feeds to minimize wear, which is why an effective spindle program should consider the specific operational information for individual spindles.
Show vendors some love: People & Companies
Finding ways to meet, interface with and show appreciation for customers and vendors can help any business. With Spring, and the hope of nicer weather upon us, CTE Manager's Desk columnist Keith Jennings is eager to leverage the season for promotional and "we appreciate you" events, such as luncheons and open houses.
Model LI84-M24 Dual-Chamber Fiber-Lined Furnace
Lucifer Furnaces' delivered a dual-chamber, fiber-lined furnace to a leading manufacturer of punches and dies in North America. The upper chamber of this customized Model LI84-M24 heats to 2,200° F and the lower draw chamber to 1,600° F with 23 KW power.
StandRite-Pro
The StandRite-Pro is designed to control postural sway in standing. Other solutions have only addressed "symptoms" of pain and fatigue. The StandRite-Pro brings a sensible and effective solution to the "causes". This solution addresses every aspect of standing while providing unimpeded ingress and egress when needed.
DB130 Advance Solid-Carbide Microdrill
Walter has introduced the DB130 Advance, its smallest solid-carbide microdrill with diameters from 0.004 to 0.06 in. (0.1 mm to 1.45 mm). With a point angle of 118° and cylindrical shank, the drill meets DIN 1899 standards.
Elevate – Enterprise Edition Software
VIMANA launches new functionalities to be included as part of VIMANA Elevate - Enterprise Edition Software. Currently, VIMANA's analytics software leverages prebuilt templates and standardized KPIs providing customers with a turn-key, easy, and fast way to implement real-time performance dashboards and historical reporting for deep insights and problem solving.
Ultrahigh-Frequency Eddy Current Separators
According to Eriez, an escalating demand for the company's ultrahigh-frequency (UHF) Eddy Current Separators correlates with an increasing number of prospective customers who are taking advantage of Eriez' sample testing capabilities. Material testing and existing installations are proving the Eriez UHF Eddy Current Separator typically recovers an additional 3 percent of previously unrecovered zorba, which would be otherwise missed by existing upstream equipment.
