This brief video from NSK America Corp. shows off the company's new iSpeed5 high-speed electric system, which is said to be capable of running continuously at up to 80,000 rpm using an external controller.

NSK America Corp. offers a three-minute video overview of its HES electric spindle series, which is said to enable conventional milling machines and machining centers to perform high-speed machining, small diameter drilling, and milling with good surface finishes.

Whether you're using low-horsepower equipment, high-speed machining centers or a 5-axis machine, POW-R-FEED M936 cutters give you the power to get more production out of every machine, every shift, every day.

AddMultiTurn – Front turning, back turning, profiling, and face turning with ONE SINGLE TOOL. Tungaloy's 6-corner inserts with the company's ultra-secure Y-PRISM clamping design for high versatility, economy, and productivity. Available in 80° or 35° corner angle.

Videos from BIG Daishowa that provide a closer look at the company's BIG KAISER CK Boring System as well as BIG KAISER's built-in Smart Damper technology.

A video from ARCH Cutting Tools offers guidance for effective chip evacuation, the proper method of holding the boring bar, and how to select insert geometry based on the cutting conditions.

For three consecutive quarters, North American robot sales have hit record highs, according to the Association for Advancing Automation in Ann Arbor, Michigan. For CNC machining in particular, orders for automation are "beyond expectations," said Craig Zoberis, founder and president of Burr Ridge, Illinois-based Fusion | RoboJob-USA, which provides systems for automatically loading and unloading CNC turning and milling machines.

Although a variety of part traceability solutions are available for traditional manufacturing processes, including bar coding, laser etching and adding serial numbers and radio frequency identification, those technologies are not particularly efficient or effective for additively manufactured parts, which tend to have complex geometries and can be microscale, according to Cody Burke, co-founder and COO of SmartParts. To overcome those challenges, SmartParts reports that it developed an integrated solution that combines advanced material taggants, hardware and software to connect manufacturing data to additive materials and parts.

What we don't see when turning HTA at a microscopic level is that a heat pocket is being created between the cutting edge and the chip being formed. This heat pocket is preventing coolant from targeting the cutting edge. What HPC does is break through the heat pocket and get coolant to where it needs to be.

Post-processing operations can be eliminated with System 222. Guhring's cutting geometries for steel, stainless steel and cast iron are sintered right into the inserts.

In this video Mate's workholding is at work at Concept Machine Tool in a Yasda PX30i 5-Axis Precision Center showcasing a full 5-Axis surfacing program and cutting demonstration.

Tungaloy America's DeepTri-Drill indexable gundrill series is easy-to-handle and capable of delivering outstanding performance, exceptional efficiency and stability in deep hole drilling.
