At EMO 2025, Anca will present a range of new products and services designed to help cutting tool manufacturers overcome current challenges such as skilled labour shortages, changing market conditions and increasing demands for resource efficiency.

The latest Module Works SDK release delivers powerful new features for digital manufacturing, including smarter deburring, improved multiblade edge protection, enhanced surface finish in tight corners, and GPU-accelerated simulation for faster, safer machining.

Roeders’ new RPT series of vertical machining centres (VMCs) promises to set a new standard in precision for industries like mould and die making. Offering exceptional accuracy, with tolerances half that of existing models, the RPT VMCs integrate advanced temperature control and Nanotol technology to achieve sub-micron precision.

On 12-13 November 2025, the Parts Finishing trade fair debuts with a forward-thinking concept at the Karlsruhe Exhibition Centre. Bringing together deburring, component cleaning, and surface finishing under one roof, this compact two-day event is designed for efficiency — offering turnkey booth packages, streamlined costs, and maximum networking opportunities.

Formnext 2025 marks its 10th anniversary with strong industry participation, reaffirming its role as a key platform for Additive Manufacturing and industrial innovation. Despite global challenges, the event continues to attract top AM leaders and new players alike.

EWS Weigele introduces the Varia.VXT quick-change system, enabling fast and precise static tool swaps in fixed-head turning centres. Designed for repeatability and rigidity, it enhances machining flexibility and surface finish while minimising vibration.

Software company Open Mind launched the 2025 release of its Hypermill CAD/CAM suite. The highlight of the new version is the easy-to-use, automatic deburring function. The 2025 release includes a new tessellation algorithm and a simplified element display for CAD models, which help further accelerate the CAD part of the software.

Serbian grinding machine manufacturer Grindex has significantly enhanced its quality control and R&D capabilities with the installation of an LK Metrology CMM — enabling faster, more precise inspection, reduced scrap and improved production efficiency.

Horn has enhanced its DM range with new polycrystalline diamond (PCD) mills, designed for high-efficiency aluminium machining. Optimised cutting geometries ensure superior chip control, reduced cutting forces and exceptional surface finishes.

Streamlining CNC inspection, LK Metrology's new range of affordable tool storage racks enhances efficiency by enabling automatic probe and sensor exchanges on CMMs. With more ports than competing systems and compatibility across multiple machines, these racks optimize tool organization, reduce damage risk, and extend equipment lifespan.
