A new CNC system, the OSP-P500, will be launched by Japanese machine tool builder Okuma on stand B36 in hall 15 at the EMO 2023 trade fair in Hannover, to be held from 18th to 23rd September. The smart machine control, which is manufactured in-house, combines highly productive and precise machining with ease of use, energy efficiency and safety features to protect against cyber attacks.

Reaching a good surface finish has always been challenging, especially when it comes to internal machining. It’s even more difficult when the holes are deep and narrow which calls for a tool with a long overhang. To master also those processes MAQ is introducing its diamond burnishing line.

In machining operations, the quality of surface finish plays a significant role in a component's aesthetic, functionality and service life. Among tested tools, MAQ's offering excelled in creating smoother finishes on 4340-alloyed steel, demonstrating their value in achieving optimal finishes without sacrificing productivity.

German tool manufacturer Inovatools has introduced a special high-gloss finish for high-end milling cutters and drills, which significantly improves their performance and extends their service life by double-digit percentages.

The tool and cutter grinders from Anca can effectively manufacture a range of threadmilling cutters. Customers wanting to manufacture this cutter in large volume or for lights-out manufacturing can make use of our Laser Ultra technology for measurement and compensation inside the machine.

GF Machining Solutions will participate in the Moulding Expo (13-16 June) (Hall 1, Stand G21). At the trade fair for tool and mould making, the company will present itself as a solution provider that offers everything from consulting to the successful implementation of production systems from a single source.

3D printing company Ultimaker announced the launch of Method XL, a 3D printing solution for engineering applications, offering precision printing with industrial-grade materials without compromising on part size.

It is acknowledged that run out can be relatively low on some hydraulic chuck systems, and this can diminish further after intensive use. This can now be significantly improved with the new Hydraulic Chuck Jet Through that has been introduced to Big Kaiser’s HDC (hydraulic chucks) series.

Now available from Floyd Automatic Tooling is the flexible new MSIK modular tooling system from Schwanog for external and axial grooving operations. The new MSIK system enables coolant to be delivered straight to the cutting edge to enhance tool life, surface finishes and swarf evacuation.

Toolmaker, SJ Dimmock, has upgraded its manufacturing capabilities with the purchase of their first UK-made Yamazaki Mazak VCN 530C vertical machining center.
