Filter by Process Zone:
4X Higher Productivity and Tool Life in Titanium Milling
ADVANTiGE machining technology from Makino overcomes low metal removal rates and limited tool life associated with titanium machining by improving spindle performance, coolant delivery, vibration damping, machine rigidity and cutting strategies.
Automatic Turning Expands Into All Its Variations
The SPRINT 50 horizontal turning center from DMG /Mori Seiki provides different modular expansion options for complete six-sided machining of workpieces, from the two-turret version using the TWIN concept through to automatic lathes with three turrets and a B-axis for production demand.
Unparalleled Productivity, Reliability Reduces Manufacturing Costs
The a81 horizontal machining center from Makino uses a 50 Taper spindle and features a 630 mm pallet to help manufacturers reduce costs from their operations.
Rigid Semi-Flex Discs for Tough Grinding Applications

For aggressive grinding applications, these discs are made with a stiff phenolic resin fiberglass backing that is engineered to be stronger than plastic or vulcanized fiber backings for more control when grinding corners and edges.
Pneumatic Circular Saw Dry Cuts Steel, Non-Ferrous Metal and More
The 2 HP Model 5 1115 0020 metal cutting saw from CS Unitec is ideal for foundries, petrochemical, nuclear, marine, demolition and fabrication industries or other applications where pneumatic power is the norm.
Machine Long, Thin Workpieces Without Reclamping

This innovative new 4-way bed precision lathe features automated cycles and digital drive technology using slides that can overrun the fixed steady rest. The lathe takes its name from the four guideways along which the steady rest and slide can be moved.
Compact Harmonic Gearhead for Machine Tools, Robots
With space at a premium in machine tools and automation equipment, this automation gearhead from Nexen can fit virtually any machine requiring a minimal footprint, such as machine tools, robots and robotic arms, and numerous general industrial positioning and motion control applications.
Mechanical Stamping Press Offers Competitive Advantage
MMC mechanical presses from Nidec Minster specifically address the needs of metal stampers who cannot afford a higher priced traditional press up to 1200 tons, but still want comprehensive service and support before, during, and after the press is installed.
Ball Pein and Cross Pein Hammers for Machine Shops
Ball pein and cross pein hammers from Wilton have drop-forged steel heads for metal forming, forging, shaping, center punch, riveting and peining.
System Monitors Advanced 3D Waterjet Machining
Intelli-VISOR from OMAX allows operators to effectively monitor and analyze important machining parameters, including cutting activity, pump pressure and abrasive levels, as well as keep track of machine hours and maintenance schedules.
Multipurpose Milling in a Single Tooling Solution
The M200 Milling Series from WIDIA offers high performance and productivity for multiple roughing and semi-finishing applications, from die and mold to energy and aerospace.
Precision Grain Technology Reinvents Grinding Wheels
The precision-shaped grains in Cubitron II grinding wheels from 3M continuously fracture to form sharp points and edges and help abrasives slice cleaner and faster, stay cooler, and last longer than conventional wheels.
