To achieve particulate cleanliness specifications, deburring is as essential as cleaning.
This clamping and gripping system incorporates electrically powered steady rests, clamping heads, grippers, cylinder systems, clamp release units and tool locking systems.
Up against a tight deadline and down to a single insert to run an entire batch of hardened steel components, Metalmite turned to Sandvik Coromant to help overcome a tough threading operation and take an expensive outsourced job in-house for a fraction of the cost.
Choosing the right tools and matching them to the correct operations and process techniques for micromachining applications is critical to success in this burgeoning market.
It is this goal of keeping the machines running that Schwanog LLC (Elgin, Illinois) has set its sites on helping its customers accomplish. Since modifying its direction about 18 years ago to specialize in indexable form tools, the company has been increasing tool life and providing fast turnaround to help shops reduce machine downtime.
Claiming to be the first machine tool manufacturer to introduce the idea of a "pick-up spindle" CNC production lathe, Emag Maschinenfabrik (Salach, Germany, and Farmington Hills, Michigan) exhibited its first "VSC" machine at Düsseldorf, Germany's METAV machine tool show in 1992. Since then, Emag has delivered m
Manufacturing engineers are taking a closer look at some old-line processes to help solve some critical metal surface problems. Electropolishing is one such process worthy of closer inspection.
The attention that is given to advanced techniques such as turning materials of high hardness, ultra-precision turning and dry and high-speed turning may lead one to believe that traditional ISO turning techniques are at a standstill. The reality is that ongoing innovations keep traditional methods at the forefront.
In today’s cost-conscious manufacturing environment, what shop owner or production manager would not be excited about achieving accurate size and fine finish on the original machine on which parts are produced? Roller burnishing can help users eliminate secondary operations for substantial time and cost savings, while at the same time improving the quality of their product.
