Renishaw's new RLP40 and OLP40 lathe inspection probes offer a choice of signal transmission technologies – radio or optical – to make part setup and inspection on turning centers accurate, simple and reliable.

Okuma America Corp. says its new M460-VE vertical machining center marries value with high-performance machining technology.

A 20mm spring-loaded engraving toolholder is available from 2L inc. The holder can be used in a CNC machine with a 20mm collet or endmill holder and is for high-speed production engraving on flat, curved or uneven surfaces.

BIG Kaiser Precision Tooling Inc. has expanded its turning tool line to include HSK T63 tooling for multitask machines. The line offers modular turning tools for mill/turn applications in either a 45° tilt style or a 90° right-angle style.

Sandvik Coromant's CoroBore 825 is for finishing of holes with tight tolerances and surface finish requirements.

Eurotech Elite's new Trofeo series offers a design that delivers efficient and fast production of complex components, using live tools, C-axis and Y-axis.

Lucifer Furnaces Inc. shipped two dual-chamber atmosphere muffle ovens to a customer for the purpose of heat treating superconducting wire used in medical, pharmaceutical and industrial applications.

Engis Corp.'s Electrogrip electroplated diamond dressing blocks turn a standard grinder with reciprocating table, such as a surface, tool and cutter or optical form grinder, into an automatic form grinder when combined with power down-feed.

A milling cutter from Mikron Corp. Monroe is for back chamfer milling of small contours and bores, starting from 0.4mm in diameter. The company recommends conventional milling in two steps to avoid secondary burrs.

As part of its ongoing drive to provide customers—OEMs, shop owners, manufacturing engineers, tooling specialists, setup technicians, fixture, workholding and jig designers—with the innovative tools and technologies needed to enhance quality and productivity throughput, Fixtureworkscontinues to expand its product offering to encompass an ever growing list of stainless steel fixturing, workholding and operating elements.

ystematically implementing customer requests was the main challenge in the development of the new ACCURA coordinate measuring machine from Carl Zeiss IMT Corp.

This small machine weighs 42 pounds and ships in a Pelican case for ease of storage, transportation and portability. It can run off a regular electrical plug, battery or generator — for use at home, in the office, in the classroom, garage or workshop and even on the road (or camping on a mountaintop).

MarSurf CD 140 AG 11 features an automated calibration routine for probe arms and a flexible workpiece holder that makes it easy to handle. Automatic tracing force selection assures the proper force is used when replacing several stylus tips. Operators can choose from a comprehensive range of clamps and workpiece holders, and this versatile machine can also be used to obtain roughness measurements (Rz>2µm).

The H-Carb Series 77 end mills specialize in deep axial trochoidal and high-speed machining applications and are offered in various lengths of cut. The specially designed core and flute design improve rigidity and chip flow while reducing deflection. The seven-flute design allows for superior finishes at higher speed and feed rates versus 5 and 6 flute tools.

A powerful system does not have to be complicated! With every further development of our software, we take great care to ensure that the users only see the data on the screen that they currently needs for their current task. Everything else is consistently hidden. This ensures quick integration and minimal training efforts.
