Many machine tool manufacturers address the generation of heat during long machining operations in different ways. Some are far more effective than others. In this webinar you will learn about unique technologies designed to address the challenges of thermal growth on die and mold machining applications....

This webinar will examine various application examples of very tight tolerances, geometric feature blends and very accurate tooling matches - between different tools - on long cycle time, complex, 3D die and mold parts. Topics that will be discussed include the machine tool technology incorporated in...

Producing fine finishes on EDMed surfaces has long been a goal, especially for mold and die shops that operate ram-type electrical discharge machines. Lately, there has been renewed interest in using additives in the dielectric oil to achieve ultra fine finishes with graphite electrodes without excessive...

Nypro Puerto Rico, the first offshore facility for the eighth largest injection molder, needed an infusion of new technology in the mold building capacity at its Nypro Technology Center (NTC). NYPRO - OVERHAULING THE SHOP FLOOR Nypro Puerto Rico, the first...

Ultra High Accuracy Ram Ideal for Micro EDM AUBURN HILLS, MI—September 2006—Makino’s newest entry to the micro-EDM world is the EDAC1. This next generation, micro EDM Ram machine is capable of producing corner radii of 0.00019 inches (0.005 mm) and surface finish quality of 0.000024...

Pending EPA regulations on metal cutting fluids have made dry machining a hot topic recently. And while the need for dry machining may be apparent, issues including the perceived inability to cut dry at higher speeds and the changeover costs involved result in dry machining being perceived as impractical...

The technology behind Wire EDM machining has continually improved the reliability and efficiency of the EDM process. As a result, this once non-traditional method has become mainstream in Tool and Die Making, as well as with direct parts production, especially in the Medical and Aerospace fields. While...
