Filter by Process Zone:
INSERTS FOR MACHINING OF HEAT-RESISTANT SUPER ALLOYS
Sialon grade inserts from Sandvik Coromant increase the opportunities in semi-finish to finish machining heat-resistant super alloys.
CNC INTEGRATES MULTIPLE-AXIS PLASMA CUTTING
The economical Thermadyne XT series CNC combines multiple axis controls in one unit for simplicity of operation in plasma cutting.
QUICK-CHANGE ABRASIVE DISCS FOR GRINDING, BLENDING AND FINISHING
Rex-Cut provides three types of discs that can rapidly reduce welds, blend scratches and apply a final finish to aluminum, steel and stainless steel fabrications.
VERTICAL LATHE FOR THE AUTOMOTIVE AND SUPPLY INDUSTRIES
The CTV 160 from DMG/Mori Seiki has a chip-to-chip time of less than 5 seconds, along with fast and simple program generation with 3D simulation.
ADVANCED FIVE-AXIS MACHINING IN A SMALL FOOTPRINT
The DMU 50 and DMU 50 eco machining centers from DMG/Mori Seiki cost effectively reduce the total production time from purchase of raw materials to finished products.
HIGHER ACCELERATION BETTER SURFACE FINISH FOR HIGH VOLUME PRODUCTION
These vertical machining centers from Haas Automation use next-generation digital servomotors and high-resolution encoders on all axes, combined with significant software and motor-control advancements.
10,000 RPM INLINE DIRECT-DRIVE SPINDLE FOR 50 TAPER VERTICAL MACHINING CENTERS
This system couples the motor directly to the spindle to provide fine surface finishes, extreme thermal stability and quiet operation on VF-3YT, VF-5 and VF-6 VMCs from Haas Automation.
MULTI-AUGER CHIP CONVEYOR SYSTEMS
Haas Automation offers optional chip removal systems for its new-generation 2010 VF-1 through VF-6 VMCs to move chips out of the machines quickly.
ECONOMICAL BRIDGEPORT VMC WITH ADVANCED CONTROLS
The Bridgeport GX-1000 vertical machining center from Hardinge is outfitted with an Okuma open-architecture control system for the drives, motors and encoders.
ULTRA-PRECISION MACHINING OF SHORT RUNS OR LIGHTS-OUT PRODUCTION
The Triton 5]axis machining center from KERN Precision provides a large 3-axis work envelope that is ideal for processing a variety of materials from stainless steel to titanium, in hardened or soft materials.
SMALL FOOTPRINT MILL-TURN VMC USES NO HYDRAULICS TO PRODUCE MOLDS/DIES
The modular NBV vertical machining center from MAG can be configured for 3-axis to 5-axis mill-turn work that optimizes energy use to cutting requirements by eliminating hydraulics.
VMC PROVIDES HARDMILLING FOR AEROSPACE DIE/MOLD MEDICAL AND PRODUCTION MARKETS
The five-axis Makino S56-5XB is ideal for applications requiring high spindle speeds, fine surface finishes and hardmilling with exacting accuracy in contoured parts.
