Heavy duty cutting places particular requirements on the machine and working processes. If this involves a material such as titanium, which is particularly hard to cut, specific know-how is necessary to deal with these requirements. Thanks to its expertise, WFL Millturn Technologies can offer a machining solution for aircraft landing gear.

The CAM software Hypermill from Open Mind bears the ‘DMQP’ (DMG Mori Qualified Products) quality seal and is thus part of the DMG Mori product configurator.

The manual milling and drilling machine FPS 500M is being replaced by the further developed FPS 500M-hydro. This machine is even more compact, user-friendly and optimally tailored to the needs of the user.

In May, Control 2023 opens its doors in Stuttgart. For Aerotech, who will be in Hall 5, Booth 5425, the focus, as it relates to part quality assurance, will be on the motion control platform Automation1 with new functions of Release 2.4.

Additive manufacturing, or 3D printing, allows Seco Tools to create products that would otherwise be difficult or impossible to manufacture. The advantages include shorter lead times, improved tool life and increased sustainability.

30-taper vertical machining centre (VMC) manufacturer Brother, Japan, has introduced a new 5-axis model with a swivelling rotary table, the Speedio U500Xd1. Despite having a nominal footprint of just 1.5 x 2 metres, it is capable of multi-face machining of components up to 500 mm diameter by 270 mm high and weighing up to 100 kg.

At the recent DMG Mori open house held at the machine tool manufacturer's Pfronten factory in Germany, a new 5-axis machining centre was launched aimed at the entry-level market.

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.

When it comes to solutions for plastic parts, Rodinger Kunststoff-Technik is a first address. From the idea to the construction of the injection moulding tool to the production of the individual part or the assembly, RKT offers complete solutions from one source. In toolmaking, Rodinger relies on tools from OSG.

The virtual commissioning of customer-specific machines has the greatest leverage in terms of improving product quality, costs and throughput time. Until now, model creation has been costly and uneconomical due to the lack of mechatronic modular building block systems. Let's take a look at the effects of digital twins for virtual commissioning.
