Modern medicine wouldn't be anywhere near what it is today without plastics. The technology expert in hot and cold runner technology Günther Hot Runner Technology can point to extensive expertise in medical technology, as the following examples demonstrate.

The 5th Deburring Expo will present innovations and trends for deburring technology and precision surface finishing at the Karlsruhe Exhibition Centre from the 10th through the 12th of October, 2023. The Expo will showcase technologies that are becoming increasingly important for quality and efficiency in the metalworking industries.

Small, delicate parts can be processed with high precision on large EDM machines, but not vice versa. What was already possible in EDM drilling, bes Funkenerosion from Fluorn-Winzeln also wanted to realise in wire cutting.

Plymouth-based company Tooltech manufactures tooling for the aerospace and power generation sectors, producing injection moulds and all the fixturing that goes alongside that. In the past the company hat a lot of surface finish problems and there were a lot of collisions. This is why the Devon manufacturer opted for CAM software from Open Mind Technologies.

Technology company HCL announces the addition of barrel tool support in CAM Works Version 2022. CAM Works now supports standard, conical tangent, tapered, lens and advanced user-defined barrel tools utilized in Computer Numerical Control (CNC) milling machining operations.

Software developer Module Works announces the 2022.12 release of its digital manufacturing software components with new and enhanced features across the company’s entire CAD/CAM/CNC portfolio, including a new deburring preview, new cycles for rotary and turn milling, multi-regions for fused deposition modeling, and simulation and post processing for U-Axis turning operations.

CAD/CAM innovator Cambrio announced the release of Gibbs CAM 2023. New developments continue the focus on core capabilities, while introducing new technology in collaboration with Sandvik Coromant.

Software company, Solid CAM UK, announced the arrival of its new CV5-500, from Machine Tool Partner Yamazaki Mazak UK, at its Technology Centre based in Barnsley. The high-accuracy Machining Centre is said to be an invaluable addition to the centre, in demonstrating the power of Simultaneous 5-Axis Technology.

The Hypermill CAD/CAM suite from Open Mind is a highly regarded end-to-end complete solution in the mould and die industry, as it also covers aspects such as electrode manufacturing and wire EDM. It is now the introduction of the function — 5-axis radial machining — to take center stage.
