Makino's Variable Geometry (VG) equipment revolutionizes the machining of large dies and molds. The MCC-VG Series of horizontal machining centers provide a totally new concept of simultaneous three-axis machining and slanted hole machining, accomplished by tilting the spindle at an optimum angle...
Demands are increasing for extremely high-quality manufacturing processes and machinery to reduce cycle time and cost in the production of complex molds with superior finishes. With high-tolerance shape and surface requirements required in such areas as micromachining and medical applications, polishing...
The accelerated pace of product introductions and the short life cycle of those products, no longer allows the traditional techniques of prototype moldmaking to succeed. New methods must be used for the prototype mold shop to survive in today's economy.
Nicknamed "The House of EDM," Norman Noble takes electrical discharge machining very seriously. The company slogan is 'Our name means excellence," and it shows in everything they produce.
Injection-molded components are only as good as the molds Mold halves that don’t mate together cleanly, pins that don’t align, and mold locks that scrape and bind result in scrapped parts and millions in lost revenue. Klaus Wieder understands these problems all too well, and if he has his...
