Cut and Paste Program Changeover
Here’s how job shop multi-taskers and busy machine operators can pull information from existing server files off a network, flash card or memory stick and fill in the blanks to be up and running faster.
Choosing a Butt Weld Joint Preparation
Which joint configurations provide the best economy? Here is an examination of the “pro-versus-con” arguments that must be weighed out in order to make an informed decision when choosing between U-groove and V-groove joint preparations and small bevel versus large bevel configurations.
Nitrogen vs. Oxygen: Which Should You Use to Cut Steel?
To make the most cost effective decision on the choice between these assist gases, several important factors must be weighed.
Manufacturing Enters the Next Information Age
Show Me The Money: With cloud computing starting to generate a lot of noise, Mike Riley sifts through the buzz to explore what all of this really means to manufacturers.
5-Axis Milling with Additional Capabilities
New eVo machining centers from DMG/Mori Seiki are ideal for aerospace, tool and mold making, and medical devices that require simultaneous 5-axis machining, sophisticated ergonomics or integrated mill-turn technology with an integrated pallet changer.
Horizontal Machining Takes Center Stage
The NHX4000 from DMG/Mori Seiki is a heavy-duty horizontal machining center that is ideal for machining workpieces of up to 24.8 in x 35.4 in with a loading capacity up to 880 lb.
Hard Gaging Goes Soft
Jet engine component maker Meyer Tool reduces its hard gage costs by replacing multiple costly hard gages with a single software-driven Equator gage from Renishaw.
High Speed Cutting Process Optimization: How to Cut Even Faster
New functions have helped to reduce the cycle times required for 3D laser cutting, outside of the time when the laser is actually cutting. But even with these new technologies, applying the established best practices and tricks can often reduce those times even more.
What Happened?
During the chaos that often follows a workplace injury, poor incident investigation can often leave us scratching our heads. To improve incident investigation, Phil La Duke of Rockford Greene International explains how to address the five most alarmingly common mistakes that people make under the pressure of the moment.
Using 95/5 Shielding Gas During Low-Alloy Filler Rod Conformance Testing
In filler metal qualification tests where argon/oxygen shielding gas mixtures are used, Regis Geisler of Lincoln Electric explains why and how to leave some wiggle room in contracts to make adjustments as the situation warrants, instead of stipulating how welding will take place with a particular blend.
Advanced Laser Cutting Systems
New systems from MC Machinery Systems Inc./Mitsubishi include the revolutionary 3015 NX-F Fiber Laser with a fiber laser oscillator, a Z-axis linear drive, head preset auto-focus processing, a 64-bit NC with 15 in touch screen NC-panel and more.
Portable Marking for Flats and Rounds
Versatility moves beyond standard column-mounted systems with the hand-held electromagnetic dot peen marking technology from SIC Marking that is ideal for marking flat and round work pieces such as plate, pipe and fabricated vessels with heavy weight.
