High Precision Multi-Tasking Takes a Turn
To machine difficult, high-hardness materials with extremely high accuracy, the rugged Nakamura-Tome SC-300IIMYB multi-tasking turning center from Methods Machine Tools uses an extremely rigid turret for powerful cuts and fast machining that increases capacity.
Hybrid Multi-Tasking Expands the Part Processing Envelope
By combining a high-speed additive system and programmable welding automation with full 5-axis machining capabilities, the VC-500A/5X AM HWD multi-tasking machine from Mazak generates exceptionally precise sealing coatings, near-net shape part features, and can repair costly complex impellers, turbine blades, and tool and die parts.
Multi-Tasking Changes Everything
Shops are meeting the rising demand for high-mix/low-volume strategies by using innovative multi-tasking machines to fully optimize processes that encompass everything from the moment raw material enters into a shop up to the date the final part gets shipped.
Mazak to Open Florida Technical Center
Located in Orlando, this facility will serve the entire state, including the “space coast,” Tampa and Jacksonville regions.
Ultimate One-and-Done Multi-Axis Machining
To increase the profitability of machining fluid ends, gate valves, drill bits and pump housings used in oil and gas applications, the Heckert DBF 630 six-axis machining center from Starrag turns, mills, bores, drills and threads complete parts in one set-up.
Next Generation Robot Machine Tending
The modular MATRIS robot system from DMG MORI can be paired with turning centers, machining centers and 5-axis machines for flexible machine tending of high precision medical and automotive applications, as well as general machining operations.
New Company Pushes Metal Hybrid Manufacturing
KAM will use advanced technologies for aerospace, automotive, defense, energy, oil and gas, and tool and die applications.
Mazak Invests in New Manufacturing Technology
They are spending $8.5 million in their Kentucky iSmart Factory to satisfy growing customer demand with shorter turnaround times.
Portal/Overhead Five-Axis Gantry Milling
Droop+Rein portal, gantry and overhead gantry vertical 5-axis milling centers from Starrag process everything from high speed machining to heavy-duty cutting in aerospace, energy, transportation, and general industrial applications.
Dovetail Machine-Ready Blanks for Five-Axis Machining
Dovetail Machine-Ready Blanks from TCI Precision Metals are ready to load directly into dovetail workholding fixtures on 4-axis and 5-axis CNC machining centers.
Gantry Machining Centers Effectively Process Large, Complex Parts
Specifically developed for 5-axis machining of large parts for aerospace, automotive, mold making and energy applications, the DMU 200 Gantry and DMU 340 Gantry from DMG MORI provide large work areas with the smallest floor space requirement.
Wire EDM for Production Machining of Larger Parts
The MV2400-ST wire EDM from MC Machinery can perform submerged cutting up to 16.5 in deep, with an annealing length over 21 in to thread the maximum workpiece height for a broken wire recovery at the start point and through the gap if needed.
