Cam-grinding options
Ask the Grinding Doc Columnist Jeffrey Badger, Ph.D., responds to a question about the difference between "constant rpm" and "constant metal-removal rate" when it comes to grinding cams.
Above and beyond: Inspection Efficiency
Value-added services shorten lead times and increase sales opportunities for parts manufacturers. The decision to bring traditionally outsourced services in-house can be an expensive and scary proposition—one with the potential to either transform a company or send it into bankruptcy. Yet that's exactly what many manufacturing companies do, and often they are pleased with the results.
Airing differences
Around for more than 100 years, air gaging is a mature technology that still has a place in modern shops.
Flying-machine machining
As aerospace materials have evolved, machine shops have had to use new tools and technologies in order to process them. The June 2016 CTE cover story delves into delamination of composites and other workpiece problems that challenge aerospace parts makers.
Elbo Controlli Tool Presetter App
Koma Precision's Elbo Controlli tool presetter app in the Okuma App Store delivers outstanding machining precision that increases cutting accuracies and shop efficiencies. Okuma machine tool apps put the power of improving part quality, reducing costs and increasing profitability in end users' hands, according to the company.
Laser Systems L2000
The Marubeni Citizen-Cincom Laser Systems L2000 provides the capability of combining conventional machining and laser cutting on a single machine platform, reducing part handling and ensuring improved part accuracies.
Arnold Ravensburg Laser Technology
Available from German Machine Tools of America (GMTA) is the laser technology of Arnold Ravensburg, a leading supplier to the German gearmaking, automotive and off-highway powertrain markets. New machines are being offered by GMTA, along with full laser integration technology through application engineering.
POLIFAN-CURVE Flap Discs
POLIFAN-CURVE flap discs from PFERD INC bring advantages to rough and finish grinding applications. A patented, proprietary design to PFERD, POLIFAN-CURVE offers a fast, productive and economical way to go from rough grinding to smooth finishing in a single step, according to the company.
VTM-1200YB Multitasking CNC Turning Center
Okuma's VTM-1200YB multitasking CNC turning center is built to handle heavy-duty turning and cutting of large parts. The massive construction, extreme rigidity and powerful cutting capabilities of this machine make it ideal for machining large diameter workpieces, such as those in the aerospace and energy industries, according to the company.
‘CAD for CAM’ Design Tools
Mastercam is known for precision NC programming, but it also delivers a suite of shop-tested design tools aimed at getting parts on and off the machine as quickly as possible. Powerful modeling tools include not only 3D surfacing and solids, but hole-filling, direct editing without a solids history and geometry repair.
