ScULPT laser seeks tenfold increase in throughput
A joint research project known as "Scaling Ultrafast Laser Productive Precision Processing Technology", or ScULPT, was conceived to develop an efficient, powerful, ultra-short pulsed laser system with a tenfold increase in throughput on the machining of different types of glass and metals.
Pratt & Whitney to bring over 500 jobs to Georgia
Georgia will see an influx of more than 500 new aerospace manufacturing jobs at Columbus-based Pratt & Whitney, which reportedly will invest $386 million into expansion.
High-Torque Retention Knob prevents toolholder deformation
Whereas the retention knob is an unmistakably critical component of the machining process, conventional retention knobs, when installed in a toolholder, may deform the precision taper because of the elastic nature of a toolholder's thin walls. This taper deformation prevents a toolholder from properly mating with the spindle of a CNC machine.
R-2A Barrel Rifling Machine
Designed as a reliable, high-precision solution for gun manufacturers, UNISIG's dedicated R-2A rifling equipment performs the most critical final steps of firearm manufacturing. The R-2A barrel rifling machine finishes barrel blanks with a high degree of accuracy, according to the company.
ZnSe (Zinc Selenide) Focusing Lenses
A full line of ZnSe (zinc selenide) focusing lenses that are optimized for use with steel cutting lasers up to 4 kW and suitable field replacements by users is available from Laser Research Optics. Laser Research Optics CO2 Laser Lenses come in plano-convex and –meniscus configurations in 1" to 2" OD sizes with thicknesses ranging from 0.250" to 0.380".
Royal Chuck Stop
The Royal Chuck Stop provides a simple, consistent method for locating short parts in a 3-jaw lathe chuck. The chuck stop enables short parts to project beyond the chuck jaws, providing clearance for facing operations.
TNC 640 Mill-Turn Control with 3D Probing Cycle
HEIDENHAIN's popular TNC 640 mill-turn control is now available with an exciting new option, a 3D Probing cycle, called Cycle 444. Already equipped with both manual and automatic probing cycles for datum setting, workpiece alignment and inspection, the TNC 640 offers this additional 3D probing cycle to meet manufacturers' increased requirements for automation and advanced probing routines that inspect free form surfaces where measurement positions are often difficult to capture.
The CNC Chef: Tackling tool rubbing | Episode 1
In the debut episode of The CNC Chef, Bob Warfield from CNCCookbook.com cautions against slowing down your feed rate to avoid tool rubbing. A new monthly video series from Cutting Tool Engineering, The CNC Chef will address a variety of machining challenges in the coming months.
GE Aviation has invested $4 billion over 5 years in US manufacturing
To maintain and grow its production levels on its newest jet engines, engine components and aircraft systems, GE Aviation investments reached $4.3 billion in its U.S. operations during 2011–2016, with another $1.1 billion invested in its international sites, the company reports. That U.S. amount includes $214 million to establish five new plants here.
As available jobs increase, manufacturers get that old school spirit
The Bureau of Labor Statistics recently reported that hiring in December 2016 was at a four-month high, while the number of manufacturing hires tied that of November for its best monthly performance since 2010. Separately, the BLS said that manufacturing companies created 5,000 new jobs in January for a second straight month of growth.
CMT Milling Head
Engineered for use with the standard CMT toolholder (S35 type), Carmex's new high-performance milling head uses multiple indexable inserts for threading, grooving, chamfering and facing. With a cutting diameter of 41mm, a thread pitch of up to 4mm and a groove depth to 9mm, CMT accepts four triple-edged round profile inserts for high precision and enhanced performance.
HydroChuck Grind-A and HydroChuck Grind-M Chucks
MAPAL offers hydraulic chucks specially for tool grinding machines, the HydroChuck Grind-A and the HydroChuck Grind-M. The advantages of MAPAL's hydraulic expansion technology can thus now also be used for tool grinding.
