March 2019

Dear Industry Expert,

The use of stainless steel for engineering applications has always led to something of an engineering paradox. While design engineers are happy with the strength and corrosion-resistance properties of steel, production engineers are less enamored with its work-hardening characteristics and lack of machinability.

Automated die machining boosts capacity

Automated die machining boosts capacity

With the automotive sector continuing to specify stainless-steel components, the challenge for cutting-tool manufacturers is to deliver solutions that can provide ever-greater tool life and/or productivity to help machine shops succeed in an intensively competitive global marketplace. At Sandvik Coromant, there are high hopes for one such new solution. Machine shops turning austenitic and/or duplex stainless steel parts need an insert that is able to combat plastic deformation and wear to provide more parts per edge and therefore reduce cost per component.

Multi-functional hard fine machining

In the Asia Pacific region, continuously variable transmissions (CVT) are valued for the efficient and economic vehicle transmissions they support. Automatic CVTs never interrupt traction and are considered a particularly efficient solution, one reason being that CVTs are very economical, especially within the lowest specific fuel consumption range. CVTs are used in both fuel-powered and partially electrically powered vehicles. More...

Vario Cross Honing for precise gearing surfaces

Vario Cross Honing for precise gearing surfaces

By using a specially developed oscillation method during the honing process, “Vario Cross Honing” enables surface roughness to be reduced even further, resulting in another increase in the surface quality of geared components. This innovation, yet another benchmark in gearing machining from PRÄWEMA, allows gearing manufacturers to produce wear- and noise-reduced vehicle gearboxes with higher torque transmission. More...

Rotational torch sleeves for bevel, robotic cutting

Rotational torch sleeves for bevel, robotic cutting

Hypertherm is introducing three new torch sleeves for XPR plasma cutting torches and lead sets. The sleeves allow the torch and lead sets to remain axially fixed while the torch holding device rotates 360 degrees in either a clockwise or counter-clockwise direction. This capability greatly enhances torch lead life in high-flex applications. The new sleeves are ideal for bevel or 3D/robotic cutting applications. More...
