Filter by Process Zone:
NEW PACKAGING OF WIRE FOR STRUCTURAL STEEL ERECTION BRIDGE CONSTRUCTION SHIP FABRICATION
Fabshield XLR-8 and Fabshield XLNT-6 self-shielded flux-cored wires from Hobart Brothers come in easy-to-identify screen-printed boxes that include valuable wire parameter information that assists users in proper welding procedure.
CERAMIC FLAP DISCS FOR AGGRESSIVE STOCK REMOVAL OF STEEL STAINLESS STEEL EXOTICS
Type 29 Sigma Ceramic Flap Discs from Rex-Cut feature a slight angle that provides a greater contact area with the metal for faster, smoother, grinding control and aggressive stock removal.
INNOVATIVE LATHES ENHANCE PROCESS EFFICIENCY
The LT-2000EX-MY horizontal lathe and GENOS L300-MW entry-level, multi-function lathe from Okuma America Corporation maximize productivity by providing precision turning in any direction.
DOUBLE-COLUMN BRIDGE MILLS MACHINE VERY LARGE COMPLEX COMPONENTS
FEELER FV double-column bridge mills include extensive design and engineering by Methods Machine Tools for machining massive gearbox housings, nacelles on wind turbines and pumps, or valve housings for the oil and gas industry.
5-AXIS MACHINING CENTER INCORPORATES REVOLUTIONARY DESIGN
The Hyper Variaxis 630 advanced 5-axis multi-tasking machining center from Mazak is the first machine tool to maximize convenience and ergonomics through a design by Ken Okuyama.
PRODUCTIVE MACHINING OF LARGE COMPLEX SHAFT WORKPIECES
The Integrex e-670H II from Mazak offers simultaneous 5-axis machining that allows parts with tapered holes, blisks and spiral bevel gears to be machined in one setup.
COMPACT MULTI-TASKING TECHNOLOGY FOR COMPLEX PARTS
The Integrex i-200S configuration from Mazak uses a powerful 30 hp, 12,000 rpm milling spindle is mounted in the vertical rotating B-axis with a range of minus 30 deg to +240 deg.
MULTI-TASKING OF MID-SIZE COMPLEX COMPONENTS
The Integrex i-300S from Mazak uses dual 4,000 rpm spindles and a 3.58 in spindle bore for turning with C-axis control to accommodate parts up to 25.9 in diameter.
ROBUST 5-AXIS MULTI-TASKING FOR COMPLEX LARGE PARTS
The Integrex i-630V/50 heavy-duty multi-tasking center from Mazak performs full simultaneous 5-axis cutting to reduce throughput time for large complex parts.
ECONOMICAL MULTI-TASKING TECHNOLOGY FOR MACHINE SHOPS
The Integrex j-Series from Mazak performs 4-axis simultaneous machining with 5-axis tool-tip positioning, providing significant competitive advantages in productivity, accuracy and flexibility.
ECONOMICAL MULTI-TASKING MAKES MACHINE SHOPS MORE COMPETITIVE
The Integrex j-400 from Mazak uses a 30 hp, 12,000 rpm milling spindle that indexes in 5-deg increments from minus 30 deg to 210 deg (B-axis control) to perform outer diameter machining, turning, facing, grooving and threading with the same flash tool.
FIBER LASER CUTTING OR PLASMA CUTTING BY APPLICATION
The HyIntensity Fiber Laser HFL015 system from Hypertherm uses components that work together so users no longer have to choose between plasma and laser. They can choose both, applying the best cutting technology for each particular job.
