175 press releases : Cutting tools for machine tools

Machining time of this component has been reduced from 40 to 20 minutes. At the same time, tool life increased to 2 components with these new inserts Quadworx® “S” 02 47 896, without any insert change. Even the increased costs for using this new Quadworx® “S”-combination has already payed itself off after machining only 1 component.

Sandvik Coromant continues to provide the metalworking industry a constant stream of new efficient milling cutting tools. CoroMill 345 is the latest innovation and brings a new dimension to multi-edge face milling.

CoroMill 316 is a new exchangeable-top end mill for the small to medium diameter range 10 to 25 mm. With a history of developing tool couplings – pioneering indexable inserts to modular tooling – Sandvik Coromant is now introducing a ”split-tool” end mill system with a uniquely capable tool coupling. The exchangeable cutting-tool top is easily located and tightened by the slight turn a key. The ...

Without a good tool holder, some high-performance tools will show excessive wear or cut oversize. Use of the correct tool holder can result in increased tool life, lower cost per hole, reduced over-sizing and higher productivity. With the addition of TotalGrip™ high-performance mechanical power chucks, Dormer now offers an extensive range of tool-holding systems to complement its extensive progr...

Some of the world’s biggest suppliers to the aerospace industry met to discuss the latest developments in machining. The one-day seminar, staged at Dormers’ brand new UK facility, brought together leading organizations to talk about how they can respond to an ever-changing sector. Suppliers looked at improving manufacturing efficiency, improved surface finish and reducing cycle time and ...

Our goal is to allow you to improve your production at the lowest price Decrease the number of work-piece repositioning/set up, increase precision and productivity!!! ANGLE HEADS make you saving time and costs and at the same time improve quality of your work. The application of an ANGULAR HEAD, fixed at 90° or adjustable from 0° to 90°, allows you to mill, drill and make threads tilted or...

HIGHEST RIDIGITY WITH OUTSTANDING RESULTS „By using the DuoPlug®-System for finishing operations, we reduced our tool consumption by 20 % compared with normal threaded shank end mill bodies." Jürgen Frenz from Bolesta reports and he also mentions, that Bolesta is never working without Pokolm-DuoPlug®-Systems in future.

Zeropoint Quickclamping Systems are conceived for any industrial company equipped of a...

The MAN family manipulators, featuring a single cam globoidal and flat combined, can turn uniform rotating motion into an appropriate and ordered series of movements, linear intermittent and rotating intermittent (indexing version) or oscillating intermittent (oscillating version) of the output shaft on which are installed gripper device.. The manipulators are characterised by: accuracy, speed and...

Unlike other “synchronous” tap drivers that use soft plastic components or belleville washers similar to these to cushion the taps’ entry into the hole, Tapmatic SynchroFlex utilizes a patented (computer generated, precisely machined, special steel alloy) Double Flexure between the mount and the chuck. It compensates both axially and radially for the unavoidable discrepancies between the machine...

High Helix 40° flute with unique radiused flute form, produces short chips, even in Stainless Steel & Copper alloys, allowing for non-step drilling of 3 to 4xd hole depths possible, resulting in superior drill life & hole condition. The cutting edge point geometry is ultra sharp, which generates lower forces when drilling stainless steels. This also makes it ideal for soft steels, copper and al...

FTO-3D: New coolant-through Carbide drills. ECOLOGY DRILLS. Low trust, enhanced durability and stable drilling have been achieved through the adoption of a new point form and a new coating. Long tool life = environmentally friendly !! Low energie consumption = environmentally friendly !! The FTO-3D serie offers superior performances i mediul to high carbon steels.

In 2004 OMLAT spa studied and realised several electric spindle applications for grinding, with the technical characteristic of having hydrostatic bushes instead of ball bearings. This concept (an oil cushion with approx. 60 bar pressure) makes it possible to obtain a dynamic rigidity that is more than three times that obtained with the mechanical solution (ball bearings) and consequently guarante...

When clamping rectangular or cubic parts, there is little doubt that high pressure vices are the best solution. But not all work-pieces have smooth or parallel surfaces. In most cases, the opposite is more common. Parts are now often supplied for machining after having been sawed or flame-cut, causing problems when squaring the work-piece. To solve this, Fresmak has manufactured a jaw with...

New RÖHM drill chuck helps achieve quantum leap with cordless electric screwdrivers In cooperation with well-known power tool manufacturers the clamping device specialist RÖHM is providing for a technological quantum leap in the area of handheld cordless electric machines. Thus the desire of industry and tradesmen for a cordless electric screwdriver that also operates anticlockwise with up to 50...

Ideal production island for small batch sizes Clamping device specialist produces efficiently in its own production too With the new DUO / QUATRO clamping towers RÖHM GmbH from Sontheim/Brenz provides the key to considerably reducing processing and downtimes during use on horizontal machining centres in series production. And the clamping device experts impressively prove themselves that thes...

In addition to superior marking/engraving on both metals and plastics, the optimal shape and intensity of the Miyachi Unitek LMF2000 Fiber Laser Marker's pulse waveform make the fiber laser marker the perfect tool to make fine, high quality cuts in copper, steel or aluminum up to 0.02” thick. This enables cost effective prototyping of lead frame, other featured sheet parts, or steel tubes and can b...

The Omlat has planned and realized a line of electrospindles it specifies for workmanships of the light leagues for the industry aeronautical and aerospace . The peculiar characteristic of these electrospindles is a little while ago to unite characteristics of power disbursed to the high speed of rotation up to unthinkable. We list a practical example: - speed of rotation n 24.000...

Machining time of one component has been reduced from 5 to 1.5 hours. This results – for 48 components and a calculated machine hour rate of 50 €/hour – in savings of approx. more than 8000 €. Plus an increased machine availablility of 168 hours, which represents working hours of a complete month anyhow. This time saving can be used for other projects.
