A V22 high precision vertical machining center was chosen to machine the part from roughing to finishing. The machining process began with top face roughing of the part using a 15-mm Pokholm face mill at 7500RPM. The outside perimeter was then machined with a 1.3-mm ball-nosed endmill running at 30,000RPM....
A previously outsourced retainer mold featuring 5,700 holes was machined on an EDGE2 Fine Hole using 0.0120 inch diameter hollow, copper pipe electrodes. Each hole required a 0.0132 inch finished hole diameter with a tolerance of ±0.0002 inch. _x000D_ _x000D_ The EDGE2 Fine Hole's precision...

The objective of the MCD1816 demonstration is to show that two operations are eliminated by machining a die in the hard state. ELIMINATING CYCLE TIME AND BENCHING. Air Foil Demo Summary The objective of the MCD1816 demonstration is to show that two operations...
The aerospace industry's seemingly wild growth has spurred dramatic increases in part production levels. To feed the demand, manufacturers including Boeing are responding on a global scale. Its Wichita, Kansas-based machine fabrication division, for example, recently redesigned and updated its bulkhead...
The objective of the demonstration is to show that the MCD1816 has the ability of Flush Fine cutting in 50 Rc hardness material. Super Geometric Intelligence allows up to 125 ipmfeedrates following intricate contours. The Jet 50 spindle, turning at 15,000 rpm, keeps chip load down. The...
Makino demonstrates the capabilities of agile systems by dry machining a cast iron engine head typically processed on a dedicated transfer line. PARALLEL PROCESSING FOR ENGINE BLOCKS Makino demonstrates the capability to machine...
The objective of the demonstration is to show the Hyper 5's capability to produce small mold inserts. INTRICATE SHAPES, BETTER SURFACES The objective of the demonstration is to show the Hyper 5’s capability to produce small mold inserts. Process...
The objective of the demonstration is to show how a mold_x0012_s complexity and the prescription of its optics make it impossible to maintain geometry if you hand polish the finish. The EDGE2 will demonstrate finishing without polishing. COMPLEX MOLDS, SUPERIOR SURFACES Head...
