Sandvik Coromant has expanded its CoroDrill Dura 462 family with solid carbide deep-hole drills for applications from 12×D to 30×D. The drills combine grade X2BM, Zertivo 2.0 PVD coating and a micro-grained carbide substrate for multi-material drilling. The geometry incorporates a refined flute design, offset double margins, double gashes, blended root radii and a 135-degree point angle.

Sunnen has expanded its vertical honing machine portfolio with the SV-45, designed for taller workpieces and deeper bores. An extended column provides 17.5 in. more stroke length than the SV-35. Maximum stroke is 47.25 in. (1,200 mm).

Star Cutter’s Flexible Automation Cell combines automation hardware, software and secondary processes in a connected grinding workflow. The platform can be integrated across multiple CNC grinding platforms to address different production requirements. An RFID reader identifies and tracks parts as they move through the cell.

Sandvik Coromant has launched CoroThread Mill 500, a solid carbide orbital thread mill for internal threading of blind and through holes. The product family succeeds CoroMill Plura R217. The tools address deep threads, long overhangs, difficult materials and unstable setups. Features include hard-substrate grades, optimized geometry, PVD coatings and chatter-free technology in selected variants.

EMUGE-FRANKEN USA is highlighting its UNJC, UNJF and MJ taps, thread mills and gages for safety-critical threading applications in aerospace, defense, transportation and other industries. The J-Thread taps and thread mills are designed for high-stress applications requiring reliability and strength.

Fixtureworks has expanded its workholding lineup with QLSWM mini spring swing clamps for vertical clamping of small and scratch-sensitive workpieces. The clamps are available with clockwise or counterclockwise locking motion. Their compact design measures up to 30 mm long and 16 mm wide, with clamping force up to 2.5 lb., according to the company.

Sandvik Coromant has introduced CoroMill Plura barrel conical, a two-in-one solid carbide tool that combines barrel and ball-nose geometries for multi-axis profiling of complex components such as blisks and blades. The geometry enables manufacturers to machine fillets, flanks and complex surfaces in a single setup.

The norelem firm is expanding its range with compact fitted sockets for USB and RJ45 connections to more easily integrate common data interfaces into housings, switchboxes, control panels and other applications. Different connection variants and designs offer flexibility for different installation situations.

Platinum Tooling now offers custom machining center tooling solutions, designed around the unique requirements of each application. From modifications to existing tooling to completely new designs, Platinum Tooling says its team combines precision, expertise and application-focused engineering to solve challenging tooling needs.

Saint-Gobain is extending its popular Norton RazorStar product line with the non-supersized FS1190 Fiber Discs that the company says deliver fast stock removal, cooler cutting action, and extended product life. Engineered for use in welding, metal fabrication, MRO, construction, and oil and gas, these new fiber discs feature the same patented, engineered shaped ceramic grain technology and geometry as the original RazorStar.

OmniSurf 5.0 from Digital Metrology Solutions is software for analyzing surface profile data. Featuring a new interface and dozens of new features, the company says it is a complete toolbox for analyzing data from roughness measurement instruments.

The FLX Quick Change from Star Cutter is a compact five-axis tool and cutter grinder designed for tool resharpening, prototype work and hand-loaded production. A quick-change two-wheel system allows operators to change wheel packs in minutes, reducing setup time when moving between tool geometries or grinding operations.
