Filter by Process Zone:
5-AXIS PRODUCTIVITY ON AEROSPACE AND ENERGY PARTS
The modular HMC 1250/1600 from MAG uses a high-torque spindle especially suited for aerospace titanium cutting, while live spindles extend W-axis reach up to 800 mm (31.5 in) for deep-cavity milling to high precision with shorter, more rigid tool lengths.
MODULAR HMC TRANSFORMS TO SUIT ANY PART, MATERIAL OR MACHINING STRATEGY
The green design of the modular SPECHT 500/630 horizontal machining center from MAG eliminates warm-up time, sleeps when idle, minimizes coolant and air-extraction, cuts dry, wet or with MQL, and conserves space.
INCREASE MACHINING PRODUCTIVITY ON TITANIUM PARTS BY 4X
Makino T-Series 5-axis horizontal machining centers use ADVANTiGE technologies to double the tool life of conventional titanium machining operations on aerospace parts such as edge frames, pylons and bulkheads.
UNATTENDED MACHINING FOR AEROSPACE PRODUCTION
The advanced HCN 6800-II machining center with automated Palletech High-Rise 3 material handling system from Mazak offers flexible unattended production for as many as 16 machines, with up to eight loading and unloading stations.
RIGID HMC HAS LARGEST WORK ENVELOPE IN ITS CLASS
The KIWA-Japan KH-55 horizontal machining center from Methods Machine Tools uses exclusive expandable tool and pallet technology to handle work piece sizes up to 35.4 in x 39.4 in and weights up to 1,650 lb (750 kg).
ROBOTIC WATER-COOLED MIG GUN MAXIMIZES PRODUCTIVITY
The TOUGH GUN robotic water-cooled MIG gun from Tregaskiss features 600-amp water-cooled welding capacity and is designed to withstand the abuse of thick-plate and high-duty cycle applications.
COOLANT THROUGH-SPINDLE SYSTEM EXTENDS TOOL LIFE
Ideal for deep hole drilling, the high-pressure through-spindle CYCLO BLAST coolant system from MAG is a simple-to-install retrofit on small Fadal vertical machining centers.
CLEANERS FOR A VARIETY OF METAL PARTS AND ASSEMBLIES
Kyzen metal cleaning products are formulated with effectiveness, compatibility, the environment and low cost of ownership for industrial precision cleaning of all sorts of metal assemblies and parts.
REDUCE FUEL USE BY 25 PERCENT IN PIPE WELDING FABRICATION FIELD MAINTENANCE REPAIR
The industrial-strength Big Blue 400 Eco Pro welder generator from Miller Electric Mfg. saves space and simplifies the operation of Stick, TIG, MIG, FCAW and CAC-A processes.
POWER SUPPLY IDEAL FOR RESISTANCE SOLDERING HEAT SEALING AND CONDUCTIVE ADHESIVE BONDING
The Uniflow3 from Miyachi Unitek provides targeted heating and precision temperature control for such components as flex circuits, ribbon cables, wires, SMT components, single- or dual-sided edge connectors and thermocompression bonding of gold ribbon.
SEMI-AUTOMATIC STRESS RELIEF AND WELD CONDITIONING SYSTEM
The reliable Meta-Lax 2000 touch-screen system from Bonal Technologies replaces manually operated systems by automating several tasks that would have required operator input and decision making, such identifying the proper energy level for stress relief.
HEIGHT GAGE OFFERS EASY-TO-USE PRECISION FOR SHOP FLOOR MEASUREMENTS
The Mahr Federal Digimar 816 CL Height Gage utilizes a precise measuring head on stainless steel guideways and a dynamic probing system for highly accurate measurements without complicated procedures.
