Stratasys Ltd., a leader in polymer 3D printing solutions, today announced that it has been named an official partner of Toyota Racing Development (TRD). The partnership will make its debut with 3D printed production parts on the forthcoming Toyota GR86 for the GR Cup, a new single-make racing series sanctioned by SRO America.
Thereby responding to customer requests for different tooling system heights. The new Supermini Set will be presented for the first time at AMB 2022 in Stuttgart in Hall 1, Stand 1J10. With this holder variant, clamping is not carried out via the lateral surface of the cutting insert but via a clamping wedge on the face. This results in a greater holding force on the insert and thus high rigidity of the entire system.
Nexen Group, Inc. provided friction clutches for the servo motors of an eight-station rotary table required for processing workpieces. The rotary indexer solution, engineered by system integrator IQa Engineering, requires less energy and cabinet space, resulting in reduced manufacturing costs and improved overall equipment effectiveness for the end customer.
A large automotive OEM and Tier 1 supplier have placed multiple orders with Fives Giustina to refurbish & retool their horizontal double disc machines.
Okuma Deutschland GmbH, the German representative of the worldwide renowned CNC machine manufacturer Okuma Corporation Japan, is travelling with pioneering metalworking technologies to the AMB Stuttgart in South Germany from 13 to 17 September 2022.
Digitalization has reached the machine tool. The new iTENDO² contributed its shares to this. The smart toolholder provides real-time data directly "closest to the part" and helps to quickly introduce optimal machining processes. The German Design Council has now honored this SCHUNK innovation with the German Innovation Award 2022.
Mirror-finish surfaces and roughness to within nanometres. These are properties that can only be achieved with the process of ultra-precision machining or high-polish machining.
ZF is working at full speed to further reduce its carbon footprint. One of the most important key levers of achieving this is the purchase of sustainably produced materials such as steel. The technology group has now concluded a long-term supply agreement with Swedish start-up H2 Green Steel.
