Turning Centers Yield Solutions With Support
When this process engineer went searching for new turning centers for the Black&Decker plant in Fayetteville, North Carolina, he knew that he needed reliable machines, but he did not have a specific vendor in mind.
Read MoreWire EDM Gets An Automatic
The development of automatic 'tool' changing for wire electrical discharge machining promises to revise the process strategies applied to many wirecut workpieces.
Read MoreHigh Speed In Simultaneous Five-Axis Machining
In mold and die work, simultaneous five-axis machining is a proven technology, as is high speed machining (HSM). High speed simultaneous five-axis machining, however, is still a pioneering development.

By eliminating extra steps, a multi-process machine enables a medical manufacturer to streamline its production time and conserve shop space.
Read MoreGearing Up With CNC Grinding
By adding a CNC OD/ID grinder, this California gear manufacturer brought a lot of farmed-out work in house, improved quality, slashed lead times—and saved money.
Read MoreOne Stop Milling, Drilling, Turning And Grinding
Many shops, in an effort to reduce the handling of workpieces and get takt times (time spent in the cut) as low as possible, are looking to streamline this traditional hurry-up-and-wait process scheme.
Read MoreMachining To Sub-Micron Accuracy--With EDM
Electrical discharge machining (EDM) has a long tradition of being one of the most pioneering of metalworking technologies. Shops with EDM learned (by necessity) to deal with unattended operation long before it became feasible elsewhere.
