With the launch of Fortis mill grinding wheels, Weiler Abrasives is targeting higher efficiency in hot and cold rolling mills. The new wheels combine advanced ceramic grain technology with extended service life to reduce changeovers, stabilise grinding processes and lower operating costs in steel and aluminium production.

Precision meets digital innovation as Kellenberger heads to AMB 2026 in Stuttgart with a lineup spanning three machine highlights: the high-speed SP42 hard turning machine, the modular K100 universal cylindrical grinder, and a fully integrated Digital Twin of the TM300 turn-mill center, developed with Siemens and making its first appearance at the show.

By investing in an Emag WPG 7, the Swabian family business has strengthened its grinding expertise — achieving higher precision, shorter setup times, and improved efficiency in flange machining.

Automated machining takes a step forward with Module Works’ latest software release, which adds geometry-based toolpath optimisation, physics-based feed control and GPU-accelerated simulation. The update also expands shopfloor programming and standardised data exchange to improve efficiency and connectivity across manufacturing workflows.

Data-based cooling lubricant monitoring makes grinding more stable and efficient: sensor data on emulsion health, grinding forces and spindle power enables requirement-based fluid supply, supports digital twins and can cut energy use by up to 27 percent. At Grindinghub 2026 in Stuttgart, visitors will learn how Umati and OPC UA connectivity helps integrate these data streams for higher surface quality and fewer rejects.

At AMB 2026, Bimatec Soraluce will present a machine from its Productivity Line and demonstrate how automation and multitasking solutions can be used to implement customer-specific projects.

At EMO 2025, Kellenberger takes a bold step beyond grinding. Under its unified brand, the Swiss precision specialist is introducing the new TM300 – a multifunctional turning, milling, and grinding machine, alongside expanded solutions in its core grinding portfolio.

Yamazaki Mazak is preparing to return for AMB 2026 (15–19 September), where it will demonstrate how manufacturers can unlock greater productivity, flexibility and resilience through smarter process integration, advanced automation and secure connectivity.

German machine tool manufacturer Walter Maschinenbau has announced the launch of two world-premiers at AMB and IMTS. The company also offers a digital trade-fair review for everybody who cannot attend in person.

Automating gate removal and deflashing requires tools that can withstand demanding cutting loads. Pushcorp’s new STC0440-BT40 robotic spindle combines a 30 kW servo motor with standard BT40 tooling compatibility for foundry and casting applications.
