At its Open House “Iniezione Next!” in Peschiera Borromeo, Arburg Italy welcomed more than 200 guests for the Italian premiere of the new electric Allrounder Trend.

At the forthcoming EMO 2025 show workholding equipment manufacturer Roemheld will present its comprehensive suite of digitalised workholding solutions, which allow manufacturers to integrate their clamping processes into an Industry 4.0 factory environment.

Designed for use in compact high-speed machining centres, Ott-Jakob’s new Power-Check Micro measures the clamping force in small spindle interfaces like HSK E15 to E20. The lightweight, battery-powered device supports preventative maintenance and helps ensure precision, tool stability, and process reliability.

A student design made from recycled plastic has won the “Pleiades — Plastic European Innovation Award for Design and Sustainability”, a university competition in Italy that brings together design, sustainability and industrial injection moulding.

With its Run product line, Ready brings metrology directly onto the shopfloor. Designed for real production environments, the flexible CMMs combine robust accuracy, intuitive operation and automation-ready features to shorten feedback loops, stabilise processes and turn measurement into an active part of modern manufacturing.

At HIN Feinmechanik, precision does not end at the machine table. Faced with growing demands on accuracy, process reliability and programming speed, the company shifted control upstream into CAM preparation — reducing collisions, manual rework and scrap before cutting even begins.

At Fakuma 2024, Arburg is presenting the latest addition to its electric injection moulding machine lineup, the Allrounder 720 E Golden Electric, featuring a clamping force of 2,800 kN.

The Swiss grinding specialist Kellenberger is presenting two new cylindrical grinding machines at the Grinding Hub fair in Stuttgart — the K8 and the K10 — significantly expanding its machine portfolio for beginners and smaller companies.

When 150 mouldmakers in a 320-strong manufacturing group adopt one cooling concept across the toolroom, it is worth paying attention. Bekto’s complete conversion to Hasco’s Cooling Tornado suggests a new standard may be emerging in mouldmaking.

High-precision subcontractor Optimal Manufacturing has boosted its machining capacity with a bespoke robotic handling cell retrofitted to a DMG Mori 5-axis machining centre at its Redditch facility.
