Germany — High metal removal rates, maximum process reliability and long tool life: The Multiedge T90 PRO8 tangential indexable insert milling system from LMT Tools offers high performance and economic efficiency. The system is ideally suited for roughing and semi-finishing operations in steel, cast iron and stainless steels.

Germany — Machining centre manufacturer Röders has introduced to its machining centre range an upgraded CNC system capable of programming and controlling a full range of metalcutting operations more efficiently, from roughing through high-speed milling to micron-accuracy jig grinding.

Germany — Preparations are running at full bore for Deburring Expo as a live event at the Karlsruhe Exhibition Centre from 12 through 14 October, 2021. The booking status also promises a successful 4th Leading Trade Fair for Deburring Technology and Precision Surface Finishing, where exhibitors and visitors will once again be able to exchange ideas at face-to-face meetings.

Germany — The more difficult a material is to machine, the more robust, the tools for machining them have to be. However, the production and sharpening of hard tools, such as PCD tools, requires specially tailored machines. Anca has therefore developed an EDG machine suitable for this task.

Fluid engineering experts Sulzer has committed to a three-year contract with MSC Industrial Supply (MSC). The companies experts identified a host of measures to realize savings in Sulzer's maching operations.

Italy/USA — Nucor Steel Brandenburg awarded Tenova a contract for two heavy-duty combination roll grinding machines for its green field project for a new plate mill plant in Brandenburg, Kentucky, USA.

Italy — Baowu Steel awarded Tenova two contracts for the revamping of a fully automatic roll shop for its silicon steel plant at Baoshan Iron and Steel, in Baoshan, Shanghai, China.

By acquiring Vischer & Bolli Automation, the German manufacturer of high-precision workpiece clamping equipment Hainbuch has not only expanded its expertise in the field of automation, but now offers a wider range of stationary workpiece clamping devices.

Germany — In order to ensure that users will find the optimal solution for their grinding task, Schunk, as a specialist for gripping systems and clamping technology, and 3M, manufacturer in the field of industrial abrasives, have come together to support companies in automating their grinding, polishing and brushing processes.

Switzerland — Swiss company Starrag Group, which specializes in precision cutting machine tools, uses Vericut NC simulation software to predict machining times. In addition to verification and optimization of NC programs, it provides a precise indication of the runtime of the optimized machining on the machine.
