On Display at Eastec 2019
Here is an overview of some of the CNC machining and other technology showcased at the biennial manufacturing trade show.

Emuge, Open Mind Team Up to Present Five-Axis Workshop
The event will take place June 12, 2019, at Emuge’s North American corporate headquarters and technology center in Boylston, Massachusetts.

End Mill Line Designed for Complex Geometries Typical of Turbines
Eastec 2019: Emuge Corp.’s Turbine end mills feature geometry designed specifically for the high-performance machining of turbine and bladed components.

Emuge Breaks Ground on Massachusetts Headquarters Expansion
The company also plans to expand its current Technology and Training Center, also located at the West Boylston facility.

Add Punch Tapping to the List of Thread-Machining Options
Emuge has introduced the Punch Tap, a new class of tool for rapidly threading holes in aluminum.

Tap Forms Internal Threads in Half a Second
Emuge’s Punch Tap enables helical thread forming in cast and wrought aluminum alloys, as well as similar lightweight materials.

Circle Segment End Mills Increase Material Removal
With so much happening in a busy show year between NPE2018 and Amerimold 2018, MoldMaking Technology is revisiting some of the technology that was on display. In case you missed it: At IMTS 2018, Emuge Corp has circle segment cutters, a class of end mills designed to enable more material removal with fewer passes in five-axis machining.

Understanding Circle-Segment Milling Tools
The circle-segment cutter represents a class of milling tool in which the CAM software is key for using the tool effectively. Cutting profiles presented at the proper angles realize cycle-time reductions in contoured workpieces such as molds. A CAM company engineer discusses the role of this tooling.

Taps Cut Internal Threads in Half a Second
IMTS 2018: Emuge Corp.’s Punch Tap enables helical thread forming in cast and wrought aluminum alloys and similar lightweight materials.

Thread-Making Tools Come with Integrated Locking System
Emuge’s thread-making tools are available with a Self-Lock integrated locking system.

Step Drill Chamfers, Drills in One Operation, Saving Time
Emuge’s EF step drill is a high-penetration rate solid carbide drill that can chamfer and drill in one operation, saving time.

Emuge, Open Mind to Offer Free Seminar on Five-Axis Machining
The event will focus on the former’s trochoidal and circle-segment end mills and the latter’s CAM package.

Trochoidal End Mills Increase Metal Removal Rates
Emuge announces its line of solid carbide end mills for trochoidal milling.

Expanded Line of Taps Handle a Range of Materials
Emuge has added 87 new SKUs to its MultiTap line of taps designed to cut a range of materials including carbon steel, steel alloys, stainless steel, aluminum, cast iron, copper, brass and bronze.

Emuge to Host Joint Open House with Blaser Swisslube, Butler Bros.
The event will feature Emuge’s new Technology Center, machining demonstrations and seminars.

Emuge, Open Mind Technologies Formalize Partnership
The two companies have a history of collaboration.

End Mills Cut and Polish 2D Contours Simultaneously
Emuge has introduced its Cut & Form solid carbide finishing end mills, designed to perform both cutting and polishing in one operation.

Circle-Segment Cutters Remove More Material in Fewer Passes
Eastec 2017: Available from Emuge, circle-segment cutters are designed to remove more material in fewer passes in five-axis machining.
