The world is opening up again, making it an opportune time to do in-person research on the latest technology and trends at the Precision Machining Technology Show (PMTS) 2021 set for August 10-12, 2021, in Cleveland, Ohio, at the Huntington Convention Center. Strengthening economic conditions also indicate it’s a good time to consider planning and investing for possible updates in your company’s technology, automation and software to make your business more efficient and productive.
This week, we’re taking a look at cutting tools and toolholders, including an insertable form drill system that addresses the problem of high setup times; solid carbide drills that hold tight tolerances; a quick-change toolholding system featuring mechanical stops and coolant tubes for fast setups; a shrink-fit machine especially developed for shrink-fit collets and small toolholders; and more.
Before you go to the show, don’t miss PMTS show highlights in Derek Korn’s latest column and look for more PMTS Product Previews each week until the show! And don’t forget to register for the show.
For all the latest PMTS product highlights, please visit our extensive PMTS Preview Section which includes new PMTS products posted every weekday up through the show’s opening day.
