The Latest Updates in Technology
For more than a decade, we at Fabricating & Metalworking Online have carried stories on the latest machines and equipment to hit the market. Take a look at our latest updates, go back in our archives to see what we’ve written about in the past.
Filter by Process Zone:
INDEXABLE CARBIDE INSERT DRILL FOR LARGE DIAMETER HOLES
The WDX accurately drills holes, turns and bores a wide range of steels, stainless steels, cast irons, and exotic materials.
THREAD MILLS FOR DIFFICULT MATERIALS
These solid carbide thread mills are ideal for easy machining of stainless steels, titanium, K-monel, hastelloy, and inconel in medical, aerospace, defense, and computer applications.
HIGH FEED MILLS ACHIEVE TEN TIMES METAL REMOVAL RATE
High feed per tooth, coupled with shallow depth of cut, achieves 3X to 10X metal removal rate for near net shape finishes.
VERSATILE GRADE FOR HRSA AND STAINLESS STEEL MACHINING
A sharp-edge grade for finishing-to-medium machining in stainless steel and medium-to-roughing in heat resistant super alloys and titanium.
CHATTER-FREE BEVELING, FACING AND BORING
This cutter head and blade design provides chatter-free beveling, facing, and boring without cutting oils.
SAME CUTTER ROUGHS AND FINISHES STEEL, STAINLESS STEEL, CAST IRON, ALUMINUM AND EXOTICS
As improved flutes, high axial and radial rake angles reduce cutting forces, improve production and extend tool life, new elliptical angles generate true 90-degree shoulders.
AFFORDABLE MODULAR INSERT TOOLING
This interchangeable carbide insert system uses the popular TTS geometry for affordable quick change tooling.
GENERAL PURPOSE TO INTERRUPTED TURNING OF STEELS AND STAINLESS STEELS
These new grades are more wear resistant than conventional coatings and reduce possible chip adhesion due to their smoothness.
ONE CLAMPING MODULE FOR ALL WORKPIECES
The KONTEC KSC from Schunk Inc. (Morrisville, NC) is a multi-functional manual clamping system. It is easily adjusted, whether conventional clamping, very low clamping depths for 5-sided machining, molded parts, plates or workpieces with saw cut surfaces, KONTEC KSC enables an adjustment in very little time.
LOCATE AND LOCK FIXTURE PLATES AND SUBPLATES FAST
The patented Ball Lock? Mounting System from Jergens, Inc. (Cleveland, OH) is the practical quick-change system for fixturing in metalworking and metal-forming operations, for either horizontal or vertical machining centers. With the current trend toward smaller production runs, the ability to set up quickly for the next run is critical to maintaining profitability.
CHANGE OVER WORKHOLDING IN UNDER ONE MINUTE
The Hydramax (Tigard, OR) model HYDRA-4-8 vise jaw fits directly onto a Kurt 8 in vise and is capable of holding 4 parts.
MODULAR HYDRAULIC CHUCK SYSTEM IMPROVES RUN TIMES
Hainbuch America (Milwaukee, WI) extends its modular system to their stationary line of chucks with the Hydrok, a hydraulically-actuated stationary chuck that is available in hexagon and round variants. Both offer significantly higher holding power when compared to conventional 3-jaw chucks through Hainbuch?s pull-back effect, plus circumferential clamping.
