In this seminar, Makino will discuss why 2+3 machining might be a better fit than full 5-axis processing for your die/mold manufacturing operation. Learn about the superior programming capabilities, blending, part accuracy and surface finishes possible with 2+3 machining.
Learn about new concepts such as simultaneous three-axis machining and slanted hole machining on very large mold parts. We'll also be discussing new techniques in setup reduction, cycle time reduction and improvements in surface finish, now possible with a new generation of HMC designed for large...
The biggest unknown in machine limits is by far the bending moment. By knowing the limits of what your machine is designed to handle you can ensure that you are balancing productivity and process stability for long term profitability. This webinar talks about how to identify your machine’s limits...
Learn about the new “purpose-built” family of large 5 axis horizontal machining centers for aluminum monolithic aerospace part production. This new family of machines will be available with X axis travels ranging from 4 to 20 meters.
Many machine shops may avoid taking on intricate aerospace machining work because they have already made investments in four-axis machining centers, and aerospace work mostly requires five-axis capability. “Aircraft structural and turbo machinery components very often have surfaces that...
Learn the optimal cutting temperatures for titanium machining and how to better manage thermal conditions during the machining process. Gain insights on modeling, testing and identifying optimal cutting parameters for high metal-removal rates and longer tool life as well as how to achieve excellent surface...
