Cutting Tool Reconditioning, Industrial Vending, Tool Boxes and Foam Inserts

Along with providing AutoCrib tool crib management software and industrial vending systems, US Tool also reconditions dull, dirty drills and cutting tools and returns them to users sized and packaged with bar-coded labels in reusable boxes, cleaned, sharpened and ready to perform like new.
High Performance Strategies for 2.5D Through 5-Axis Milling, Drilling, Mill-Turn and Specialty Applications

hyperMILL MAXX Machining CAM software from OPEN MIND Technologies applies conical barrel cutters to large planar, ruled or general surfaces for finishing; five-axis roughing for engine casings and radial components; and drilling with 5-axis helical motion using standard endmills to open pockets with good chip removal.
Advanced Vertical Turning Achieves World-Class Precision

Ideal for manufacturing medium and large batch runs, the compact VL 4 Vertical Turning Machine from EMAG utilizes a modular inverted vertical lathe configuration for machining precision metal parts, reducing floor space costs and increasing machine layout flexibility.
Versatile Vertical Bandsaw Cuts Structural Steel, Solid Bars, Pipe, Tubing, Tool Steel

The counterbalanced tilting saw head on the MV2018 bandsaw from MetalMizer has pre-stop detents located at both 45 deg angles and the vertical position for fast, easy operator adjustment, and a 3 deg forward tilt to optimize feed rate on entry when cutting structural steel, solid bars, pipe, tubing, and tool steel.
Realistic Machining Simulation, Simplified CNC Programming

The NCSIMUL SOLUTIONS 10 software suite from SPRING Technologies performs realistic simulation of the machining process so that users can simulate, verify, optimize and review their CNC programs based on the actual characteristics of the machine tools.
Measurement of Complex Parts on the Digitized Shop Floor
