Learn and don’t repeat
Whether or not you believe in New Year's resolutions, starting any new year with optimism and a positive attitude is a worthy idea and can't hurt anything. An important element is applying key lessons learned from the previous year.
Setting the stages for Industry 4.0
As CTE Publications Inc. begins the 70th volume of Cutting Tool Engineering, the fundamental principles of cutting and grinding metal remain the same as when the magazine premiered with a different name to serve members of the Society of Carbide Engineers.
From Single-Task Machines to Backflipping Robots: The Evolution of Robots
The history of robots combines the best of science fiction and real life technology. From Isaac Asimov to modern industrial robots, keep reading to explore the fascinating history of robotics.
NCG CAM v16.0
NCG CAM Solutions Ltd. UK officially released NCG CAM v16.0. This major release includes a number of new features including Selected Surface Machining for Waterline Passes, Combined Passes for Waterline & Constant Stepover, Tangential Extension for Raster Passes, 5-Axis Flank Machining, as well as many new user interface features and enhancements.
TC120, TC121 and TC122 Supreme Blind-Hole Taps
Walter has introduced the TC120, TC121 and TC122 Supreme, three new blind-hole taps that combine maximum performance in steel with improved tool life and process reliability. These new entries in the Walter Supreme line have been specially developed for machining steel.
Episode 86: Cup wheel grinding wearing thin
For the 86th episode in the Grinding Doc video series from Cutting Tool Engineering, Dr. Jeffrey Badger encourages shops to true a taper in the wheel when they perform cup wheel grinding.
VOMAT FA 70 Coolant Filtration System
When regrinding tools, clean filtered coolants are an important quality factor. The filtration system manufacturer VOMAT from Germany ensures that clean and pure cooling lubricants are available for an extended period of time to the production process. The compact VOMAT FA 70 is particularly suited to tool regrinding.
4/6/8 Channels for Air Bearing Motion Systems
PI (Physik Instrumente) LP has released a new high-performance motion controller designed to handle 4, 6 or 8 axes of PIglide air bearing positioning stages and precision automation sub-systems. Air bearings provide many advantages compared to mechanical bearings, such as no-particle generation, frictionless, vibration-free motion, highly constant velocity control, nanometer-precision repeatability and optimal geometric performance.
Neo Roughing Laser
To meet the increasing utilization of superhard materials in production processes, notably aerospace, Agathon Machine Tools Inc. has introduced the Neo Roughing Laser for accelerated processing rates, and overall indexable insert production savings. The Neo has three mechanical axes and three optical axes for processing the periphery, clearance angles and chipbreakers.
Gen4 Super Ion Air Knife
EXAIR's new Gen4 Super Ion Air Knife eliminates static electricity 34 percent better at low inlet pressures, which saves compressed air and money. Production speeds, product quality and surface cleanliness can improve dramatically.
Dowell VHR-500/600 High-Precision, Multiple-Function Grinding Machine
GMSi Group Inc. offers the Dowell VHR-500/600 high-precision, multiple-function grinding machine with a vertical and horizontal spindle. The vertical Y-axis spindle uses a pneumatic counterweight to reduce ballscrew and servomotor loading and make movement smoother and extend machine life. The horizontal spindle uses six ball bearings for heavy grinding.
