Rotary Indexing Table Uses Direct-Drive Motor To Eliminate Backlash
The GSI DNC-400 direct-drive rotary indexing table is suited for high-volume and aerospace manufacturers performing high speed, high-accuracy contouring operations. Compared to tables using a servomotor and worm gear, this direct-drive table offers higher accuracy, faster rotational speeds and higher torque, the co
Read MoreInspection 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

The self-contained pneumatic B60 power collet chuck does not require a lathe, grinder or rotary table to have a hydraulic system, rear actuator, restrictive draw-tube or air feed tubes. Instead, the collet chuck is operated by an air cylinder that is integrated into its body. The chucks have a gripping capacity
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
Read MorePower Chucks Feature Dual Actuator Design
The company’s high-precision power chucks (PPC) feature a dual actuator design to provide increased clamping force and higher rpm capability. The design is said to achieve greater rigidity, resulting in improved accuracy at high draw tube forces. Increased chuck life is also said to be attained because the internal
Read MoreWorkholding System Increases Tool Access
The Bock Workholding system is a line of products specifically designed to enable complete machining on five sides of the workpiece in a single setup. The system allows a greater range of tool access angles over conventional vises on five-axis machining centers, the company says. The vises are offered with a compre
Read MoreSolid Carbide Boring Tools With A Corner Radii And Sharp Corner
The company feature’s its “BB”-style solid carbide boring bars with both a corner radii and sharp corner. Both designs are offered as uncoated or with TiN coating as standard; are available in both left- and right-hand design; and offer a wide range of boring depths and sizes. The tools feature a lockdown flat that
Read MoreMilling System Uses Triple-Edged Indexable Inserts
The DA multi-milling system offers solutions for face milling, corner milling, plunge and pocket milling, chamfering and pre-drilling tasks. The system’s positive geometry helps reduce the risk of vibration because the tools and drive units are only slightly loaded. Diameter-specific inserts with helical reliefs ar
