For more than a decade, we at Fabricating & Metalworking Online have carried stories on the latest machines and equipment to hit the market. Take a look at our latest updates, go back in our archives to see what we’ve written about in the past.
Filter by Process Zone:
High Performance 5-Axis Milling
The innovative Mikron HPM series milling machines with pallet changers are ideal for both micro and macro applications involving processes from simple drilling to complex five-sided and simultaneous five-axis machining.
Mill/Turn Lathes for Complex Work
The Cyclone-52 BY2 9-axis multitasking machine from Ganesh Machinery combines turning and milling front and back for a finished part on a next generation CNC lathe.
Machining Large, Complex Die Molds
The new GE Series Horizontal Machining Centers from Enshu USA use high power 40 taper and 50 taper spindles that are well suited for high precision and rapid metal removal applications, including automotive, firearms, orthopedics, electronics and die mold.
Automated Turning Center Cell
The DooCell robot cell control and diagnostic system from Doosan Machine Tools simplifies operations and uses a Puma 700LY turning center to machine a wide range of hard-to-cut materials in a single chucking.
Lathes Turn Complex Parts
The FBL-360 slant-bed lathe and the FVL-1250VTC Series vertical lathe from Chevalier Machinery are ideal for heavy-duty jobs that deliver precision machined parts fast in mixed-volume, short-run or dedicated high-volume applications.
Multitasking Turning Center
The Tongtai TMT-2000 8-axis two-turret, two-spindle multitasking turning center from Absolute Machine Tools is cast from Meehanite iron and loaded with extra features not found on comparable machines in its class.
Magnets Clamp Steel Gussets and Panels
These unique gusset magnets from Strong Hand Tools allow plane alignment, locating, and clamping of steel gussets and panels and are ideal for assembly, tacking, and welding operations.
Modular Fixturing for Welding
New Titanium-Aluminum angles are part of the latest technology in precision welding tables, components and modular fixturing used for welding from Bluco.
Brush-On Polymer Seals Porosity in Welds
This high-performance brush-on methacrylate compound from IMPCO is formulated for sealing porosity in welds that will contain gases under pressure or liquids.
Premium Tungsten Electrodes
These 2 percent lanthanated tungsten electrodes from Weldcraft provide similar characteristics as the 1.5 percent lanthanated tungsten electrode, but with improved arc starting and stability, and less tip erosion. They are also a good substitute for 2 percent thoriated tungsten electrodes.
Turn-Mill Machining Control
Heidenhain offers its first milling control offered with optional turning, enabling it to perform multi-operation machining with an optimized user interface that gives greater transparency during programming to present functions better and displays status information more clearly.
Advanced Control for Machining Aerospace Parts
The 8065 CNC from Fagor Automation uses proprietary advanced features necessary for high speed machining that maintain the best surface finish with maximum accuracy.
