Inspection Machine Measures Virtually Any Parameter
The genius 3 inspection machine with the pilot 3.0 vision system software features a graphical user interface and is capable of measuring virtually any parameter on any type of tool, the company says. Measurements of tool features, including assigning upper and lower tolerances, can be made from either an absolute
Read MoreModular Design Enables Precision Boring Over Large Diameter Range
The B4035 boring head features an optoelectronic adjustment measuring system and digital display with 0.0001" accuracy in the diameter range of 0.118" to 4.882" (3 to 124 mm). Maintenance-free automatic balance compensation and flexible screw fit connections make this tool suitable for virtually all spindle adaptat
Read MorePower Chuck Minimizes Vibrations
Machine and cutting tools reach their capacity on speeds and feeds as soon as they begin to vibrate. The vibrations are transmitted through the tool and lead to chatter marks of the workpiece. The Power Shrink Chuck is designed to reduce the amount of vibration transferred onto the workpiece, thereby improving th
