Pratt & Whitney adds new fan blade manufacturing facility to Lansing plant
Pratt & Whitney's new 93,000 square-foot facility adds to an already existing GTF fan blade production line in Lansing. The company's AutoAir facility has had a tenfold ramp-up in the past 20 months, and has increased its workforce from just over 200 to almost 700.
2017 U.S. cutting tool consumption up 7.1%
July U.S. cutting tool consumption totaled $170.95 million according to the U.S. Cutting Tool Institute (USCTI) and AMT – The Association For Manufacturing Technology. This total, as reported by companies participating in the Cutting Tool Market Report (CTMR) collaboration, was down 8.4% from June's $186.57 million and up 16.0% when compared with the total of $147.43 million reported for July 2016.
Expertise, new technology shared at Makino’s Die/Mold Technology Expo
The first day of Makino Corp.'s two-day 2017 Die/Mold Technology Expo included technology seminars, economic prognosticators, and demonstrations on more than 23 state-of-the-art machines at the company's U.S. headquarters in Auburn Hills, Mich. The company also unveiled a new vertical machining center for true 5-axis continuous processing.
Synova SA launches 5-axis MCS 500 for 3D machining and hole drilling
Synova SA, Duillier, Switzerland, a provider of advanced laser-cutting systems, has developed a CNC machine with 5-axis capability to satisfy stringent technical requirements in the aerospace and energy sectors.

Episode 7: Taming chatter
In the seventh episode of The CNC Chef, Bob Warfield of the CNCCookbook outlines steps that will help you tame chatter.
Simplified CAM for advanced EDM wire cutting
The cutting of intricate profiles and odd angles is the domain of wire EDM machining processes, capable of creating ultraprecise shapes and superior finishes that are near-impossible to machine by other means. However, just because a shape is difficult to machine does not mean it should be hard to program.
Power Air Respiratory System e3000
Suhner Industrial Products announces its new Power Air Respiratory System e3000, specially designed for operator protection during high-grit grinding and polishing operations. The system, in combination with the e3000 lightweight helmet from Suhner, offer respiratory protection from the effects of smoke, dust and vapor, as well as operator comfort.
Sensing-Saf-Start Motor Controls
Drills, mills, lathes, grinders, saws and other 120V machinery can abruptly shut down during operation due to a power interruption. When an unintentional shut down takes place, it is critically important that a machine does not automatically restart, catching the operator by surprise and leading to a serious accident.
FZU 5-Axis Gantry Mill
The demands for prototype, tool and mold making are increasing. Only those who can supply high-quality output, quickly and flexibly, can succeed against the powerful competition worldwide. Zimmermann is responding to this trend with the new FZU.
CAM software takes the tension out of manufacturing lead times
Containing large-size cargo for transport is challenging yet necessary to keep bundles intact for individual orders and to keep them from flying off the beds of 18-wheelers at high speeds. Allstrap Inc., Upper Arlington, Ohio, specializes in the manufacture of the steel and poly straps that hold these sizeable loads together, as well as the pneumatic and battery-operated tensioning tools that keep the straps taut.
Lean forward: Toyota’s ‘human-powered’ automation
The online magazine Fast Company reports that while the rest of the auto industry increasingly uses robots in manufacturing, Toyota has taken a contrarian stance by accentuating human craftsmanship: "The central role that people play in this corner of [Toyota's] Georgetown plant is repeated throughout the factory and exemplifies the uniqueness of Toyota's manufacturing philosophy."
Industry giants partner with startup Maketime to bring tech, hardware and services to U.S. manufacturers
Kentucky-based startup MakeTime announced the launch, and participating industry partners, of the MakeTime Shop Advantage Program. The first-of-its-kind program is designed to make technology, sophisticated hardware and business services more accessible to the U.S. manufacturing base, which contributes over $2 trillion to the U.S. economy annually.
