Software provider CG Tech announced the latest release of Vericut, Version 9.3. The software features several improvements and operates independently, but also integrates with all leading CAM systems.

As a company that specialises in press tooling and subcontract machining, the throughput of work at Cube Precision Engineering can be as diverse as it is challenging. When the Rowley Regis based subcontract manufacturer was tasked with drilling 55,600 holes in a three by two meter press tool recently, it turned to the cutting tool experts from Industrial Tooling Corporation (ITC) and its drilling lines.

At AMB 2022, Open Mind Technologies will not only highlight the strategic partnership with the recently acquired MES provider Hummingbird Systems. The company will also address the role of CAM in networked production processes under the banner of “Create the Future of Manufacturing Together”.

Additive manufacturing is becoming increasingly important. Foundries can also benefit from 3D printing. But how does it work and where is it used?

Attendees at the International Manufacturing Technology Show (IMTS) 2022 will experience the recently launched Mastercam 2023.

At the IFW, researchers are investigating how displacement compensation for mobile machine tools, which are used to repair heavy press tools, for instance, can be made feasible with the help of simulations and sensors.

The new home of grinding technology, Grinding Hub, celebrated its premiere in Stuttgart in May 2022. More than 370 well-known manufacturers from 23 countries presented numerous innovations across the entire grinding technology process chain — with a clear trend towards automation and digitalisation.

The manufacturer and developer of modular clamping, positioning and measuring equipment Witte Barskamp uses Mazak machines for most of its production. A new addition is robotised with an automated system.

The international trade fair for the metalworking industry, Metav 2022 will take place from 21 to 24 June in Düsseldorf, Germany. It will showcase the entire spectrum of production technology. One of the main topics at the stands will be energy-efficient metalworking.

In 2018, the mould making department at Procter & Gamble optimised its portfolio in order to meet the requirements of multicavity moulds requiring small high accuracy geometries. In addition, the company wanted to consistently continue the changeover from copper to graphite electrodes, which began in 2014. With the investment in OPS-Ingersoll’s Eagle G5 Precision die-sinking EDM machine, they have fulfilled this task.
