A new face mill launched by Widia has been designed for rough to semi-finish machining of a variety of steels, stainless steels, cast and nodular irons.

UK — To enable efficient machining of titanium, Walter launched its MD377 Supreme and MC377 Advance solid carbide milling cutters. Developed as high-end specialist tools for the aviation, motor sport and medical industries, the new arrivals are universal tools that are suitable for roughing, semi-finishing and finishing operations.

Mould making specialist Braunform, in cooperation with Moldino Tool Engineering Europe, has reviewed its electrode milling processes, developed alternatives and tapped into new potential. The solution had such a striking result that the entire graphite machining process at the plastics specialist in Baden switched to tools from Moldino.

Germany — To support CAM vendors and system suppliers in the dental market, Module Works has established a strategic business area with a dedicated focus on digital dentistry.

Sweden — To improve the productivity of mould-and-die manufacturers, Hexagon is giving every user of WORKNC CAM software access to Designer, an out-of-the-box CAD-to-CAM workflow with advanced modeling tools to accelerate preparation of solid models for manufacturing.

UK — A subcontractor from Northern Ireland worked with HBO Studios and Tourism Ireland in the creation of beech wood doors for the sixth series of Game of Thrones TV. Cutting machines from ITC were integral to this project.

Germany — How can components — e.g. injection molds for filter housings — be machined with a precision of less than 1 µm and surfaces in the low single-digit nanometer range? At EMO 2021 in Milan, Hall 1 Booth C21, Kern Microtechnik will be demonstrating live how this is done.

Italy — At EMO Milano 2021, Horn will be presenting its expanded portfolio of DS-type solid carbide end mills. Thanks to the new high-performance geometry, the tools are suitable for high-performance cutting of high strenght steels.

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 — The increasing quantities of e-motors are challenging production planners: In many application areas, they have to establish new solutions with which components, such as the e-motor drive shaft, can be manufactured faster and more efficiently — and with holistic production systems. A new example Emag realised for a supplier company producing components for e-mobility shows how a turnkey solution can look like.
