To break through the past limitations of low metal removal rates and limited tool life, Makino' ADVANTiGE technologies and the new T-series 5 axis horizontal machining centers incorporate new spindle technologies, coolant delivery, vibration damping, machine rigidity and cutting strategies, the company says.
To break through the past limitations of low metal removal rates and limited tool life, Makino' ADVANTiGE technologies and the new T-series 5 axis horizontal machining centers incorporate new spindle technologies, coolant delivery, vibration damping, machine rigidity and cutting strategies, the company says. The company’s learning lab at the inaugural imX (interactive manufacturing experience) industry event will demonstrate these new technologies through actual part examples and tooling and cutting methods. Scheduled for September 12-14 in Las Vegas, imX (interactive manufacturing experience) aims to depart from the traditional trade show model and provide an interactive, educational experience.
The company will also offer a second learning lab that will demonstrate techniques for machining parts with micro-scale features to micron tolerances. Attendees will obtain technical assistance to foster innovation and engineering of new products, and see how Makino machines can control the minimum increment of movement to 10 Nm and provide positioning repeatability less than 100 Nm and positioning accuracy less than 500 Nm, the company says.
