Mag’s high-torque T-Rex spindle is available on four-axis 1250/1600 HMCs.
Larger Equipment Helps Expand Vision
The largest vertical-capacity Carl Zeiss CMM in the Western hemisphere and four large boring mills from MAG Giddings & Lewis prove critical to machining massive wind turbine components at Three-M Tool and Machine.
Minimizing Turnaround Times for Big Parts
The key to success (and the primary challenge) for any job shop is minimizing turnaround time for non-repeating work. This Indiana shop shares some of its strategies for reducing lead times for the various large-scale jobs it encounters.
Big Machining for a Big Gear
Here’s an example in which MAG demonstrates it knows how to use machine tools as well as build them.
End Mills Remove Titanium at High Rates
MAG’s CYCLO CUT Max-Flute end mills machine internal structures in titanium, Inconel and stainless steel components with removal rates ranging to 8"/3 min. with 25 foot-pounds of torque and 9 hp.
Long-Lasting Insert Turns Around Tough Inconel Job
By changing to a hex-shaped turning insert with a 45-degree lead angle, this shop saved thousands of dollars on a difficult Inconel turning application.
Shrink-Fit Toolholder Keeps Mills in Place During Hard Cutting
MAG’s Cyclo Lock shrink-fit tool holders are designed to prevent end mills from pulling out during heavy cuts in titanium, Inconel and other hard metals used in production of high-value parts for the aerospace and heavy equipment industries.
How is Large-Part Machining Different?
A shop serving the wind-power industry illustrates some of the challenges particular to machining massive workpieces.
The Big Niche
Expertise and the right equipment for machining large components for oilfield and other industries enable this shop to succeed despite fluctuating economic conditions.
Big HMC Offers A-Axis Tilt Spindle
MAG’s HMC 1250 series is now offered with a 180,000-position, A-axis tilt spindle to allow five-axis machining of large parts for aerospace, energy and other heavy industries. The 6,000-rpm, 61.
HBM Offers Modular Design Flexibility
Vertical Turning Center Features Machining Center Flexibility
Horizontal Boring Mills Have Modular Design
Automotive Supplier Speeds Metal Removal With Boring Mill
In an industry where one in three shops has closed during the past 10 years, Fischer Tool and Die's business is thriving. According to the Temperance, Michigan shop, this is because its growth stems from die cast work for the automotive 'new domestics,' a term for transplants.
Floor-Type Horizontal Boring Mills
HMC Reduces Precision Machining Time For Large Parts By 20 Percent
With the current glut of domestic manufacturing capacity and offshore competition, keeping a job shop competitive, particularly in these tight economic times, is not easy. For some shops, specializing in out-of-the-ordinary parts or niche markets is more lucrative than vying for highly sought after production runs of small parts.
Precision Machining Grows Larger
By adding new machines, this company earned new business they wouldn't even have considered in the past and allowed them to deliver large precision-machined parts to their customers much faster than ever before.
Four Types Of Five-Axis Machining Centers
Different machines offer different approaches to rotary travel, and each design has its own strengths. Here's how they compare.
Widening Interest In Twist Drills
Wide-web drills with high-performance points help speed machining center paybacks.
How Accurate Is Your Machining Center?
Virtually every machine tool builder lists, as part of a machine's specification, accuracy and repeatability figures. What's generally not given is the method used to arrive at the figures. Though these methods are defined in linear positioning standards, not all builders use the same standards.
Mapping Your Way To Five-Axis Machining
The right route starts with the workpiece, but there are many other considerations.
Plant Floor Partnerships Pay Off
Synergy between the machine tool buyer, the machine tool builder, the machine tool distributor, and the tooling supplier doesn't just happen. But making it happen is well worth the effort, as the experiences of this company prove.
