Wisdom guide for fabricators to adopt the right CAD tool
Fabrication/manufacturing is a very discrete industry and is on a run to shift towards additive manufacturing instead of the conventional machining process. And as a result, 3D CAD sketching and modeling tools are accepted as the most lucid geometrical medium for design articulation.
Carr Lane offers ON-SIZE Bushings for Bullet-Nose Dowels
New ON-SIZE bushings from Carr Lane Mfg. Co. are suitable for fixtures used at high-temperatures up to 750° F (400° C), such as in autoclave curing. These precision bushings are used with bullet-nose dowels to align two pieces of a fixture.
High-Speed Air-Bearing Ultraprecision Spindles
If you are looking for product quality improvements that only an ultraprecision tooling spindle can provide, and also require the robustness of an industrial grade design, Precitech says the ASD-H25 and ASD-Cx high-speed air-bearing ultraprecision tooling spindles by Levicron are precisely what you need.
The Power of FIVE: The Definitive Guide to 5-Axis Machining
The Power of FIVE: The Definitive Guide to 5-Axis Machining book was officially released this month at an industry conference, Top Shops, in Indianapolis. The author, Michael Cope, is a machinist and works at Hurco as a product technical specialist.
Look Ahead: All together now
The toii Platform, created by thyssenkrupp Materials Services GmbH, is said to effectively communicate with a wide array of systems and devices that will help fulfill the promise of the industrial internet of things (IIoT).
Look Ahead: Securing robots’ ‘personal space’
Collaborative robotics has three aspects: the human, the robot and the workspace where the task is to be completed. Much of the media coverage has focused exclusively on the robots themselves.
Productive Times: Slicing through the challenge
End User: DoubleStar Corp., (888) 736-7725, www.star15.com; Solution Provider: DP Technology Corp., (800) 627-8479, www.espritcam.com; Challenge: Write CNC programs to efficiently machine knives. Solution: 3D milling strategies in a CAM program.
Shop considers investing in 5-axis machining
If your shop makes parts that demand multiple setups, parts that have challenging geometry or parts with difficult GD&T requirements, 5-axis machining could provide significant benefits. Do not let the potential cost of the investment prevent you from conducting a thorough cost analysis of your current machining methods.
Navigating safety regulations: Safety, Standards & Compliance
Navigating and complying with OSHA regulations can frustrate companies, particularly when the regulations are inconsistently enforced.
Chamfers and Countersinks That Halt Burr Formation
Chamfers and countersinks help control burr formation, improve thread starts, and protect hole quality. This guide explains where each operation fits and how tooling choices affect results.
Modular fixturing pros and cons
Modular fixturing at its best offers the stability and accuracy of dedicated workholding with the flexibility to be reconfigured quickly for a variety of parts. But sometimes compatibility issues arise.
Save time by setting tools offline with a presetter
The benefits of presetting are somewhat intangible; it takes a little digging to actually understand how much time is spent manually setting tools and what impact that has on shop throughput and profitability.
