Share withManufacturing applications using computer numerical control (CNC) Double column Machine have seen a huge rise in industry. The CNC Double column Machine consists of several components, such as the static beam, moveable beam, moveable worktable, adjustable double column and overhead beams. The beams are the most significant parts of a CNC double column machine […]
Share withCustomers in automotive industries require different kinds of automobiles and engines under different working conditions, including the size of the car, the type of the motor or the power of the engine to meet the demands of the market in each group. Many factors are involved such as the price of fuel, the carbon […]
Share withThe NHX 4000 3rd Generation is a horizontal machining center most suited for mass production of parts that require a high level of rigidity and accuracy for the automotive and aerospace sectors. Equipped with the high-speed spindle speedMASTER and a thick, high-rigidity bed as standard, the model ensures high-speed and stably high-accuracy machining. Moreover, […]
Share withIt doesn’t seem as if you can ever count the vertical machining center (VMC) out when it comes to being the favorite workhorse of any shop, whether mold/die, aerospace, medical, or just plain hard-charging job shop. The iconic three-axis machine has morphed into the versatile platform for high-speed, high-precision five-axis machines capable of machining […]
Share withGrinding is one of the most widely used manufacturing processes and, in the last few decades, has developed considerably. An example of these developments is hardening by grinding, an operation that is being studied to provide an option to the conventional hardening processes. But even in long-established technologies such as generating grinding, substantial improvements […]
Share withChallenge Machine continues to add high-speed equipment for the increasing amount of micromachining work it is performing. Here are some lessons it has learned along the way, using tools as small as 0.001 inch in diameter. What’s interesting about Challenge Machine is the range of equipment—and available spindle speeds—this shop has added over the […]
Share withWire EDM is extremely accurate. Many machines move in increments of 40 millionths of an inch (.00004″ or 0.001 mm), some in 10 millionths of an inch (.00001″ or 0.00025 mm), and others even in 4 millionths of an inch (.000004” or 0. 0001 mm). Machines can achieve accuracies of +/-.0001” or 0.0025 mm; […]
Share withThe technologies for high-precision machining with high-speed and high-acceleration driving of feed-axis of double-column machining centers. In the proposed approach, linear motors whose stator has no magnet are adopted to the feed-axis to realize the high-speed and high-acceleration driving. In addition, the characteristic of generating little heat is necessary for this linear motor to […]
Share withThe shift from vertical to horizontal machining was even more expensive than this shop anticipated. It was also more valuable. Most of the shop’s machining centers are HMCs now—here’s why. Number one is that horizontals generally come standard with a pallet changer. While the parts on the first pallet are being machined, the other […]
Share withOPTIPLEX 3015 DDL adopted the state-of-the-art technology of direct diode laser (DDL), which we, Yamazaki Mazak, have developed for the first time in the world. Comparing DDL with conventional CO2 and fiber laser, DDL has its advantage of higher heat absorption rate on a variety of materials thanks to the shorter wave-length. Therefore, not […]
