In Hogout Machining, the CAD File Becomes Critical
To serve customers by helping them bypass casting, this shop first needs a close-enough relationship with the customer that it can count on getting good CAD data. Here is why.

How Part Data Control Will Expand and Simplify the Supply Chain
Digital rights management for manufactured part files will enable OEMs to enforce manufacturing requirements at a distance, as an alternative to in-person certification of suppliers.

What Does It Take to Succeed at Machining Hogouts?
Beyond the machining capacity, other important factors relate to the people and the understanding of the process.

Four-Laser Additive System Improves Productivity
The company is also introducing process-monitoring and high-temperature additive manufacturing technology.

Renishaw Collaborates with Identify3D on Securing AM Processes
The goal is to protect digital intellectual property, enforce production rules and provide traceability in the digital supply chain for Renishaw’s AM systems.

The Link Between Gaging and Tool Cost Savings
New software delivers the next step for Renishaw’s programmable gaging system: a mechanism for changing cutting tools when they are truly at the end of their life, not after an arbitrary number of pieces have been run.

Renishaw Hosting “Innovation Fest” Celebrating New U.S. Headquarters
The event in Illinois is also commemorating Renishaw’s 40-year anniversary.

Meeting the Machining Challenges of Additive Manufacturing
You can 3D print the part, but can you finish it? Here is how to overcome the challenge of part deflection in the machining of lightweight, complex AM parts.

What We Learned at Westec 2017
Westec offered a useful mix of emerging technology and practical applications. This slide show reflects this mix in its eclectic coverage of what exhibitors had to offer.

Surface Finish Probe Expands CMM Capability
Renishaw's SFP2 surface finish probe is designed for use with its REvo five-axis measurement system on coordinate measuring machines (CMMs).

How to Anticipate Machining Errors before Parts Are Scrapped in QA
In L&S Machine's system for data-driven manufacturing, the data describe a good day.

Flexible Gage Software Integrates with CNC Machine Tools
EMO 2017: Renishaw will exhibit its software for the Equator flexible gauge, which allows users to fully integrate the system with CNC machine tools, its contact scanning system for CNC machine tools, its on-machine and mobile apps which are designed to simplify the use of machine tool probing, an enhanced non-contact tool setter for machining centers, a multi-probe optical interface system, a surface finish probe for coordinate measuring machines, and software that enhances the functionality of Renishaw’s XM-60 multi-axis calibration system.

On-Machine Scanning Probes for Speedier Setups
Renishaw introduces new on-machine, touch-probe scanning technology to enable faster workpiece setup and inspection cycles.

Renishaw Partners with Technical College in South Carolina
The partnership is intended to aid in developing engineers and machine operators in the region’s aerospace, power generation and automotive industries.

Gage Software Connects to CNC, Automates Tool Offset Updates
The Renishaw Equator flexible gage is now offered with intelligent process control (IPC) software, providing the functionality to fully automate tool offset updates in CNC manufacturing processes.
