The Latest Updates in Technology
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:
Robotic Grinding and Polishing
High precision CNC grinding machines with four-axis to seven-axis robotic systems from HeinzBerger are perfect for producing cutlery, hand tools, surgical instruments and similar items where precise tolerances must be met.
Extreme Metal Removal Rates
The S41 CNC universal cylindrical grinding machine from United Grinding Technologies is equipped with a hydraulically clamped tailstock to machine heavier workpieces with weights of up to 551 lb.
Grinding Hard Materials
The 255 CL centerless cylindrical grinding machine from Agathon Machine Tools is ideal for the high-precision grinding of components made of tungsten carbide, HSS, ceramics, glass and all kinds of steel parts with diameters between 0.5 mm to 30 mm and plunge lengths up to 125 mm.
Deformation-Free Clamping: From the Plastic Chuck Jaw to the Hybrid Chuck
When highly deformable workpieces need processing, conventional 3-jaw chucks quickly reach their limits. This primer from Schunk identifies different clamping tools and devices for deformation-free workpiece clamping and the criteria they should meet to demand efficiency and precision.
Magnetic, Non-Magnetic Material Handling Systems
These magnetic and non-magnetic conveyors from Magnetic Products provide positive control of ferrous and nonferrous metal stampings, turnings, chips, fasteners and scrap.
Mist Collection for Lathes, Grinders, Machining Centers
These centrifugal mist collectors and modular static filters from Losma are ideal mist collection systems for all kinds of machine tools, from small lathes and grinding machines to the largest machining centers.
Chips and Fines Filtration/Removal from Machine Tools
These new conveyors for metal cutting machine tool chip removal from Jorgensen Conveyors are designed specifically to handle heavy chip loads and large stringy chips and balls of chips generated in milling and turning applications where high work piece stock removal rates exist.
Single Pass Complete Cavity Machining
Among the custom designed, multiple diameter carbide drills and reamers Star SU LLC are Single Pass Port Cavity Tools that allow complete cavity machining, reduce cycle times and hold industry tolerances for size and finish that are ideal for spool bore applications.
Welding Spray Increases Tool Life and Cost Savings
Suitable for MIG/MAG, spot welding, laser and plasma cutting, MIG and TIG components protected by this spray from Creative CNC showed a substantial increase in service life, up to three to four times that of other anti-spatter sprays.
Integrated Plant-Wide Process Controls
From individual control panels to plant-wide centralized process control, Vecoplan Integrated Controls serves machinery importers with control panels that meet all applicable North American codes and regulations and OEMs looking to add some touch screen “sales dazzle” to their machine controls.
Robot Cables Reduce Maintenance Downtime
These twistable hybrid, bus, motor and fiber-optic cables from igus meet the demands of increasingly complex movements, such as torsional motion on a robot, that are involved in modern-day automation.
High Speed, Low Noise Linear Motion
These linear units from Rollon Corporation accept a variety of drive systems based on application needs that are ideal for highly dynamic robotic, automation and material handling applications involving stress cycles and high-precision requirements.
