Micro-Deburring Machine
The Spinner machine batch deburrs ferrous and nonferrous parts produced on Swiss-type screw machines and lathes. According to the company, it quickly and effectively batch-deburrs most small, precision parts produced for the medical, electronics and aerospace industries. The stainless steel pin media removes light burrs and micro-burrs without harming the part.
Read MoreMicrobore Collets for High Clamping Force
The powRgrip PG system uses a toolholder and collet to generate a high clamping force while still maintaining a TIR of less than 0. 0001". The company says it takes less than 10 seconds to press in a tool or remove it from the holder.
Read MoreTurn 1" Barstock
The Sigma 20, a high-speed sliding headstock turning center, is designed with the flexibility required in a job shop environment. This machine can turn simple to moderately complex parts. The counterspindle is as powerful as the main spindle, allowing operators to perform simultaneous machining to minimize cycle times, the company says.
Read MoreThread Mills, Single Point and Port Tools, and More
The company offers hundreds of new tools among its thread mill, specialty end mill, boring bar, threading tool, grooving tool and port tool product lines. Tools include corner rounding end mills with three flutes, double ended; solid carbide engraving tools in a variety of angles and sizes; and mini-boring bars with diameters ranging from 0. 015" to 0.
Read MorePrecision Manufacturing Skills Standards
NIMS is an American National Standards Institute (ANSI)-accredited developer of precision manufacturing skills standards and competency assessments. Credentials for CNC milling operators and CNC turning operators are the most recent certification products available from National Institute for Metalworking Skills (NIMS). Also, the first on the job trainer and training coordinator (OJT) certifications were issued at the beginning of last year.
Read MoreSpindles for Swiss Turning
The company has added a 20-mm and 22-mm-diameter model to its Micro line of high-speed spindles for Swiss turning. Right-hand spindles are also available. These spindles eliminate secondary operations for Swiss-type lathes.
Read MoreThree-Turret Multitasking Center
The Nakamura-Tome multitasking turning center is said to offer 100-percent stock-on turning and machining that virtually eliminates lost productivity from tool changes. The Super NTY3 has three turrets, each with a Y axis—all in a relatively small footprint (109. 45" × 77.
Read MoreLive Tools for Lathes
Designed to enhance the performance of a CNC lathe, the company offers a variety of live tools. These tools are designed to improve milling, drilling and tapping capabilities in turning operations. The company stocks a range of standardized live tools for CNC turning centers from major builders.
Read MoreModular Tooling System for Multi-Spindle Automatics
A modular tooling system for multi-spindle automatics is available, including the latest models for Davenport machines. Besides being more rigid than dovetail form tools, the modular system allows for much faster tool changes, the company says. This system consists of a modular insert holder assembly and a cross-slide holder assembly, offered in both up-cut and down-cut versions.
Read MoreShort, Compact Spindles
The company offers short, compact spindles designed for use on CNC turn-mill centers. The EMS-3060A is 124-mm long, and it features an electric motor and 60,000 rpm. The PMS-3020A is 105-mm long, features an air motor and 20,000 rpm.
Read MoreSwiss-Type with Removable Guide Bushing
The MLK-32 hybrid offers a seven-axis sliding headstock with a removable guide bushing. The hybrid model has a 7. 5-hp main spindle and a 7.
Read MoreSoftware User Interface Updates
The company has revamped the PartMaker user interface, improved capabilities for programming directly on solid models and the ability to automatically generate descriptive and visual setup information. The user interface features easy-to-use, user-configurable toolbars. Existing icons have been recast to make them easier to understand, the company says.
