The MS40P has six fluid-cooled, variable hollow-shaft motors that drive bar stock up to 40 mm, independent of each other. The machine concept is based on the added “A” side (drum side) and an opposite ...

New computer-aided-manufacturing (CAM) technology has been introduced by ESPRIT CAM, part of Hexagon’s Manufacturing Intelligence division: More accurate simulation of spindle transfers and bar pulls ...

Whether on Swiss and other turn/mill centers, drilling and tapping machines, or with milling attachments, shops are doing more milling with small spindles than ever before. That’s partly due to the ...

Start with the understanding that maximizing the benefits of multi-tasking machines requires a computer-aided manufacturing (CAM) approach that takes full advantage of the machine tool's capabilities.

Both the main and second turning spindles operate at 4,000 rpm, while the compact milling spindle comes standard as 12,000 rpm (24 hp/22 kW) and 20,000 rpm (24 hp/22 kW) as optional. The machine ...

There are some amazing large format 5-axis machining centers on the market these days. They can machine titanium all day long and hold incredible tolerances. The problem is that you may have to spend ...
