SUBCONTRACT MACHINE SHOP BUYS FIRST CNC VMC…
FROM FANUC
When James Camden Engineering Ltd had
an issue machining some complicated
aerospace parts, it turned to FANUC and its
renowned ROBODRILL vertical machining
centre for a solution. The Warwick based
subcontractor conducted a comprehensive
review of the CNC machine tool market and
concluded that FANUC offered the best
combination of cost, performance, precision,
technology and service.
With a plant list that includes EDM,
manual milling and lathes, the company was
having difficulty completing certain parts
and it was the expertise of the FANUC team
that swung the purchasing decision. As
Jordan Coles, a Tool Room Machinist at
James Camden Engineering says: "We looked
at lots of suppliers and their respective
machines, but it was the FANUC sales
engineer that was more focused upon our
needs. To this end, FANUC looked at our
components, the type of regular work and
the quantities we produce and accordingly
recommended the FANUC ROBODRILL
D21MiA5 High Power Version machining
centre."
For the small subcontractor it was a
paradigm shift in moving to its first CNC
VMC and FANUC were only too aware of
this. As Mr Coles continues: "There is often a
perception, like the one we had, that VMC's
and FANUC machines in particular, are
aimed at higher volume production and that
FANUC is a premium brand with a higher
price tag. However, FANUC blew such
perceptions away and delivered a solution to
our problems."
As the first CNC machining centre for the
company, the 3-axis ROBODRILL was sold
as an application solution to the prototype
and small batch manufacturer. "We haven't
just bought this machine for production
machining; it's been brought in for
machining extremely accurate small batch
parts. When we looked at the market, we
wanted a super accurate machine that could
work to high tolerances and would be very
precise and very consistent in its
performance," continues Mr Coles.
For giving James Camden Engineering
the edge from a productivity perspective, the
FANUC ROBODRILL has a 30m/min feed
rate and a maximum spindle speed of
10,000rpm that is derived from a 11kW
spindle motor. This combination of speed
and power is ideally suited to the demands of
the Warwick Company. Concluding on this,
Mr Coles says: "From a service perspective,
we couldn't ask for more. The sales team
were attentive to our needs and understood
our business and our goals. After the
purchase, the application engineers have
proven to be great guys that frequently pop-
OPEN MIND ANNOUNCE 5-AXIS EVENT
AT HURCO
Processing speed on the shop floor is more
crucial than ever these days. This is why
OPEN MIND Technologies has developed
hyperMILL MAXX Machining, the
comprehensive high-performance CAM
solution for roughing, finishing and drilling
that generates machining time savings of up
to 90%. The latest version of this ground
breaking CAM software will be on show at
the Hurco UK headquarters in High
Wycombe on the 4th of October. At the event,
manufacturers will have an opportunity to
witness all the latest 5-axis machine tool
technology from Hurco with live
demonstrations on a VMX42 SRTI machining
centre.
The demo day will highlight the synergy
and the remarkable potential of combining 5-
axis machine tools with new tooling concepts
such as circle segment end-mills from
Quickgrind; and of course the latest
hyperMILL® MAXX Machining module.
This performance package offers end users
three powerful modules for roughing,
finishing and drilling.
The event will start at 9am on the 4th
October and will run through to 2pm with
comprehensive 'live' demos, a Q&A session
and also the opportunity to talk to engineers
from Hurco, OPEN MIND and Quickgrind
on how the synergy between machine tool,
CAM and tooling can really open up new
avenues for your business.

in to check on us and our machine; they give
us regular advice and see how we are getting
on. In comparison, we've had other machine
tool vendors that sell us a machine, drop it
off, do the training and we don't hear from
them again. So, the service from FANUC has
genuinely been beyond all expectations."

A 50%–60%
INCREASE IN
PRODUCTIVITY AT
GR CONTRACTS
When G R Contracts, a leading supplier of
structural steelwork for the construction
industry, were looking to invest in new steel
processing machinery to increase
productivity and reduce production costs,
they never envisaged that it would have such
a radical impact on their business.
After investing time and effort into
evaluating machines from several
manufacturers they choose the Endeavour -
FICEP’s fastest ever automatic CNC line for
drilling, milling and marking for beams
channels and flats.
Not only have G R Contracts seen
substantial increases productivity, the
scribing facility on the machine has
substantially reduced the the fit up time for
the fabricators. This has resulted in the
fabricators finding that time has reduced
significantly with the new Endeavour
because they usually had to mark out and
mag drill then fabricate the steel. As now
they just have to fabricate the steel, the
company decided to run the machine on 2
shifts which meant they doubled output with
the same number of fabricators.
Robert Savage, Director of G R Contracts,
said: “We have now seen benefits of between
20-30% more pieces produced on one shift
compared to the previous methods which
using a saw on two shifts. When we have
moved to 2 shifts on the Endeavour we are
seeing a further 20-30% increase which
equates to an overall 50-60% increase in
pieces / productivity from the new machine.
This is a result that has far out exceeded our
expectations.

When Sheffield based Special Quality Alloys
chose to bring the sawing of large diameter
nickel-based superalloys in-house, they
naturally turned to Prosaw for advice on
processing these extremely tough materials.
The decision to discontinue the use of
sub-contractors for this purpose was made
all the easier since Prosaw had already
provided three Danobat bandsaws to Special
Quality Alloys. The first of these machines
was installed twelve years ago and although
all three have been used for sawing slightly
smaller diameter billets they have performed
remarkably reliably.
The fact that these machines have
functioned so consistently over such a long
period of time has inevitably resulted in the
operators becoming comfortable with the
Danobat saws. In addition, the operators did
not require any further training as they were
of course familiar with the Danobat control
systems.
This time however, billets of up to 800mm
diameter were required to be cut in an
automated continuous process, so a Danobat
CP800A Auto-bandsaw was specified and
duly purchased by the company.
Jonathan Gillet, Works Manager of
Special Quality Alloys explained the thinking
behind the decision: “Bringing the
processing of the larger diameter billets inhouse
has meant a good deal less handling
for us, resulting in faster turnaround times,
since we are no longer reliant on transport
contractors.”
VALUE FOR MONEY
“This has benefited the company in the
form of lower costs and has brought the
whole process entirely under our own
control. Even though these products are
notoriously difficult to cut, we have complete
confidence that when we put a large
diameter billet onto the Danobat machine it’s
going to be cut.”
“From our recent experiences we believe
that Danobat machines represent real value
for money.”

GUHRING DRILL IS THE TOP PRIZE FOR
ROBOT WAR WARRIORS
Over the summer months Robot Wars has been back on our TV screens with 40 distinct
combat robots battling it out for the prestigious accolade of being crowned the 2016 champion.
Self-built by the competitors and fighting in a purpose-built arena, the six-episode series has
been watched by over 2 million people each week.
The Grand Final was won by Apollo, a robot captained and driven by Dave Young. As one
of the House Robots that featured in the Series, Sir Killalot is a 740kg robot with a 2.5tonne
pincer grip and a top speed of 10mph. On one arm is a 300kg arm lift that outweighs all
competitors and on the other arm is a 2inch taper shank drill from Guhring.
The Guhring 245 Series Taper Shank Drill has been used throughout the series as a tactical
feature in battles with contestants. Manufactured by Robo Challenge, a Birmingham based
company of enthusiastic, creative and downright whacky engineers, Sir Killalot is just one of
many prestigious projects that Robo Challenge has delivered.
As well as featuring
heavily in the hit TV
show with Sir Killalot,
Robo Challenge was also
tasked with designing
and manufacturing the
coveted trophy. A
trophy that has another
iconic masterpiece at its
centre, the Guhring 245
Series Drill.

MAZAK PLANS LASER REVOLUTION
Hall 11, Stand D26
Yamazaki Mazak is planning a revolution at
EuroBLECH 2016 with new laser machines
and automation systems making their world
debuts.
Taking pride of place is the new SUPER
TURBO-X 3015 Fiber series, the latest
generation of the highly popular SUPER
TURBO-X series of CO2 laser machines, that
have sold more than 4,000 units across
Europe since 1990.
The new fibre machine, which is available
in both 2kW and 3kW versions, has been
specifically developed for laser users who
require optimum productivity allied to
reduced running costs, lower maintenance
costs and the ability to cut highly reflective
materials, such as copper, brass and
galvanised sheet.
The SUPER TURBO-X 3015 Fiber series
also boasts a best-in-class reduced floorspace
of 2,900mm x 7,400mm, which is unmatched
by competitor fibre machines, and crucially
can be fitted with Mazak’s existing FMS laser
VERNET BEHRINGER will exhibit for the
first time in Hanover the HD-S 412 compact
drilling-milling machine for profiles and the
FGEVO 1000, latest development in plate
processing.
The HD-S model has been inspired by the
HD-XEVO drilling-milling machine
launched during Euroblech in 2014. It
became immediately THE reference in this
category and will be positioned as an entry
level, particularly dedicated to
small/medium-sized steel fabricators
looking for a versatile machine with compact
footprint or bigger companies requiring an
additional line for lighter profiles, with 400 x
300 mm capacity.
The HD-S is a 3-spindle machine that can
drill simultaneously the web and both
flanges of H-beams, but also process
channels, angles, flats as well as right hollow
sections. Jansen steel profiles for windows
and doors can also be machined thanks to an
optional adaptation kit.
The machine offers a unique clamping
system with CNC controlled x-axis with 150
automation systems, which enables an easy
upgrade to fibre cutting for existing ST-X
CO2 laser machine users.
Mazak is also introducing two new
automation systems at EuroBLECH 2016. An
OPTIPLEX NEXUS 3015 4kW laser machine
will be equipped with the latest version of
Mazak’s flexible automation technology.
QUICK CELL, which has been designed by
famed Japanese industrial designer Ken
Okuyama, is available in three different
specifications, 6-stocker, 10-stocker and 14-
stocker versions.
Mazak will also be exhibiting the new
LaserFlex 2.0 materials handling solution
which is fitted to an OPTIPLEX 3015 Fiber
6kW laser cutting machine. LaserFlex is a
compact, easy-to-use laser automation
solution that enables the fast handling of raw
plates, with a process time for the exchange
of raw and cut plates of less than 75 seconds
when teamed with the OPTIPLEX machine.
Mazak will also introduce its new laser
CNC, MAZATROL PreviewG, the world’s
fastest CNC. PreviewG combines intuitive
touchscreen operations, similar to
smartphones and tablets, with new machine
hardware and servo systems, which together
can dramatically reduce programming and
processing time.
Alongside, Mazak will also exhibit an
innovative laser technology, which will be
making its world debut at EuroBLECH 2016.

ETG CELEBRATES 20 YEARS
REPRESENTING CHIRON
Twenty years after setting up Chiron Werke
UK Limited and selling their first Chiron FZ
series machining centre, the company - now
trading as the Engineering Technology
Group - has sold many hundreds of Chiron
machines into the UK in the ensuing years.
It has been 20 years that have seen ground
breaking moves forward in machine designs,
computerised technology and control,
turnkey and automation capabilities as the
industry in general has developed and
Chiron in particular has pioneered new
developments and machining concepts.
Machining centres and turnkey solutions
“Made by Chiron” are the now world’s first
choice across a spectrum of metalworking
industries in small, medium and large-sized
engineering and manufacturing
environments.
Areas where Chiron has developed
unsurpassed capabilities are its high speed
From an introduction by Mollart Engineering
of its Elliott roller burnishing tool range to a
customer, it has been able to replace separate
time consuming OD finish grinding and
unpredictable manual polishing operations
on steel forming rolls to now create a
controlled and automated consistently high
surface finish over a 300 mm length of the 150
mm diameter 36NiCrMo4 alloy steel
customers workpieces.
The change in processing strategy to
introduce the Elliott S2327 single roll OD
burnishing tool allows the roll shaft to be
turned and then finish burnished in a single
operation which is now maintaining a
surface texture that is now half the specified
tolerance. Running at the same 450 revs/min
speed as the finish turning, the burnishing
tool setting includes a feed rate of 0.1 mm per
rev. Indeed, such is the margin of quality
being maintained from part-to-part, that the
process is repeating a finish within 0.4 Ra
that is half the drawing specification.
Said Mollart Sales Manager Mark Dore:
“The customer elected to change processes
due to problems of inconsistency from the
manual polishing process and the time taken
to achieve the specified finish. We were then
able to add the bonus of eliminating the
tool changing systems with tool-to-tool times
of 0.5 seconds and the development of linear
motor based high speed axis travels
combined with accuracy, stability and
reliability. These qualities make Chiron
machine tools well suited to high volume
applications, automated cells and turn-key
installations where maximum productivity is
a primary consideration.
Today the Chiron range of vertical
machining centres offer exceptional
productivity and a wide choice of 5 axis
options including swivel head and two axis
rotary table options.
However, in the early days of Chiron
Werke in the UK, performance standards
were more modest yet, for the period, still
impressive.
Ian Howlett, now Operations Commercial
Director at ETG, joined the fledgling
company as Service Manager a few months
after founder Paul Rhodes established the
business and he recalls the very first
installation.
“We sold a FZ 28L into Longclose
Engineering in Leeds soon followed by an FZ
22W machine to O.L.D. Engineering in
Hinckley – a machine they still use to this
day. Automotive was the predominant
sector for Chiron – between 80 and 90% of
sales were into the sector - but over the years
this has broadened considerably.”

grinding process plus the logistics of moving
components around the workshop.”
The Elliott single roll OD burnishing tool
is suitable for use in both manual or CNC
controlled lathes and machining centres to
create a controlled finish on diameters,
angles, radii and faces. The contact roll can
be supplied with a selection of radii to suit
the application between 0.8 mm and 3 mm.
As the roll is made from carbide this means
production life is extended and the roll can
be easily replaced or refurbished. In order to
set operational speeds and feeds, these
normally bear a close relationship to those
applied in the finished pre-sizing cutting
operations and the toolpath replicates the
finish machining operation.

METAL REMOVAL
RATES INCREASED
BY 500%
Manufacturers attending VISI’s recent user
days at DMG Mori and Nikken, saw how the
new Waveform Roughing Strategy in the
latest release of the software improves
material removal rates by up to 500 per cent.
Live demonstrations of waveform, on a
DMG Mori ecomill 600v, using Seco Tools
UK’s new 5542C cutter – part of their solid
square range – showed a Material Removal
Rate above 65 cm3 a minute.
Paul Bown, Seco’s UK Product Manager,
says the new tool is ideal for VISI’s waveform
roughing strategy. “It’s particularly strong
and has a tapered core, along with
considerable clearance on the bottom for
helical interpolation to get into cuts without
the need to drill holes.” The demonstration
tool was 8 mm and used the full 20 mm depth
of cut, with 20 per cent side engagement, and
running at 200 metres a minute.
“This is a 4 flute tool, and we’ve got a 5
flute version coming later in the year along
with a 6 flute tool for these strategies on
titanium.”
And Steve Finn, DMG Mori UK Managing
Director, says it showed three premium
products working in harmony. “Combining
DMG Mori machine tools, Seco cutting tools
and VISI CAD/CAM from Vero Software,
improves efficiency and productivity for the
customer.”
According to John Cockerill, VISI’s UK
Support Manager, the new Waveform
Roughing Strategy in VISI 2016 R2 increases
material removal rates by a minimum of 100
per cent, and up to 500 per cent, compared to
conventional toolpaths.
“These strategies utilise the full depth of
the tool with smaller step overs, meaning
speeds and feeds can be considerably ramped
up, giving significant productivity
improvements.”
Vero’s ERP/MRP production control
system, Javelin, was also on display over the
three days, along with demonstrations of the
Hexagon Romer Arm. Steven Whalley,
Hexagon Manufacturing Intelligence Product
Specialist, showed how the system laser scans
a model to produce a 3D point cloud. “An STL
file is produced from that point cloud and
imported into VISI where a surface is created,
and the tool paths generated to cut the metal.
Without this, you’d have to go in with a hard
touch probe and take individual hits, which
would take several hours, to do what laser
scanning does in minutes.”

THE ORACLE TM HAS LANDED
Innovative ‘Factory of the Future’ technology
launched by Jemtech at its Advanced Metal
Working Fluid Management Conference
pulls in the crowds.
Jemtech, the UK’s leading cutting fluid
solutions provider and supplier of Blaser
Swisslube metal working fluids to UK and
Irish component manufacturers, has reported
that its Advanced Metal Working Fluid
Management Conference held at the
Manufacturing Technology Centre (MTC) in
Coventry on 23rd August 2016, was a huge
success.
The event attracted over 140 VIP visitors
and, according to Jemtech’s CEO Steve Coull,
“provided the perfect venue” to launch
Oracle, the company’s new, intelligent and
fully-automated metal working fluid
management system into the market and one
of the main highlights of the Conference.
The Advanced Metal Working Fluid
Management event provided attendees with
ample food for thought focusing on the bestpractice
use, application and maintenance of
metal working fluids in the machining
process.
Following an opening scene-setting
presentation from Mr Craig Stevens, Head of
Industrial Sectors at the MTC, on the purpose
and the role of the MTC (the MTC was
strategically involved in the Oracle TM
system’s two year development programme),
Mr Coull took centre stage and delivered a
typically passionate address on the
importance of metal working fluids.
As well as creating the context for the
Oracle launch, the introduction also
provided the ideal platform to present and
explain LiquidTool - Blaser Swisslube’s (and
Jemtech’s) unique and proven approach to
metal working fluid management.
Billed as a ‘Factory of the Future’
technology - Oracle, used in conjunction
with Blaser Swisslube fluids, is a real gamechanger
and is aimed at (and, as a
consequence, will appeal to) precision
component manufacturers looking to
increase their productivity, improve their
performance, reduce their operational costs
and increase their competitive advantage.
Developed in partnership with the MTC
over the last two years, Oracle provides
customers’ individual machine tools with a
constant supply of accurately mixed cutting
fluid and captures live data relating to the
real time condition of metal working fluids in
a machine tool’s sump, as part of the process.
Oracle advanced metal working fluid
system will be showcased at DMG Mori’s

TWO NEW PILLAR
DRILLS HAVE JUST
JOINED THE
AXMINSTER
ENGINEER SERIES.
Weighing in at 48kg, the M-360 is a very
precise, small pillar drill best suited for small
production batch work. It uses the ER16
collet system, which in turn uses collets with
a closure of 1mm; for example, a 7mm collet
will close down to 6mm. Collets have long
been recognised as the most accurate tool
holding system, so perfect concentricity is
assured. The drill shank capacity is 0.5-
10mm. The machine, although compact in
size, is heavily built in cast iron. The column
features a rack and pinion system to control
the height of the headstock. The headstock
itself has an exceptionally deep quill housing,
ensuring accuracy even with the quill fully
extended. There is a threaded depth stop,
which can be locked to ensure a constant
drilling depth. A 3-speed belt drive system is
fitted, driven by a smooth running induction
motor. The base has a work table surface
machined into it with 14mm T-slots for work
clamping. The drill is fitted with an
interlocked chuck guard, LED work light and
locking “E” stop switch. Please note collets
are not supplied with the drill but can be
purchased separately.
At the other end of the spectrum, the SB-
250 floor pillar drill is an extremely robust
25mm (max. capacity in steel) drill with a
weight of 210kg. It is designed for large
engineering and production tasks and is
capable of being used for prolonged periods.
Very heavily built and manufactured to
extremely accurate tolerances, this pillar drill
will stand up to hard work every day. The
headstock has been machined to precisely
match the quill housing, virtually eliminating
any spindle run-out, even at full quill
extension. Because the column is surface
ground, the table rise and fall is super
smooth in operation, making table height
adjustment a light task. The high torque
1,500W motor drives the spindle via a 6-
speed belt drive, with machined steel pulleys
eliminating vibration. This machine is also
fitted with a quill down feed system,
controlling the down feed speed in relation to
the spindle speed selected.

DOOSAN LATHES ARE CHOSEN
Tufcot, one of the leading specialist
manufacturers of composites materials, had
its fifth Doosan machine delivered to its
facility in Sheffield.
The machine, a new Doosan Puma 3100
lathe supplied by Mills CNC, joined the four
previously-purchased Doosan lathes
acquired by the company since 2007. The
new Puma is being used to manufacture,
using ‘dry’ machining strategies and
techniques, high-precision finished and
semi-finished Tufcot® components that
include spherical bearings, bushes, flanged
bushes, washers, wear pads and hydraulic
wear rings for Tufcot’s diverse and growing
domestic and international customer base.
According to Tufcot’s Managing Director,
Greg Majchrzak, this latest Doosan machine
acquisition (like those that preceded it), “will
help Tufcot achieve future growth and
maintain its competitive edge.”
Explains Greg Majchrzak:
“We are continually improving and
igus, the motion plastics specialist, will be
exhibiting its solutions for demanding
moving applications at this year’s Advanced
Engineering Show, 2-3rd November 2016,
NEC Birmingham.
Whether in the aerospace or automotive
industry, when it comes to weight savings,
design engineers increasingly rely on carbon
fibre. To meet the demands in this field, igus
developed a carbon fibre drylin W rail, which
will be on display at The NEC, stand H41.
Visitors to the stand will also be able to
see new Industry 4.0-enabled technologies
and their applications. Smart
plastics are an evolution of proven
igus cable, energy chain and linear
bearing products. Adding
embedded intelligence to its
motion plastics via the addition of
sensing, monitoring and
communications, smart plastics
allow customers to maximise
uptime and reduce costs through
condition monitoring and
predictive maintenance.
In addition to the above, igus
refining our products and services to
customers. An integral part of this companywide
Continuous Improvement Programme
involves investing in the latest and most
advanced CNC machine tool technologies.
“We have a long-established relationship
with Mills CNC and, during this time, have
made Doosan lathes our preferred ‘turning
technology’ choice. Doosan machines
combined with the back-up, service and
technical assistance provided by Mills CNC
help us reduce lead times and ensure we are
able to manufacture high-quality and highprecision
products.”
Tufcot has invested in five Doosan lathes
- all equipped with Fanuc controls.
The most recent investments made
include a 12” chuck Puma 3100M with
7.8kW/5000rpm driven tooling capability
(acquired in 2014); a 12” chuck (standard)
Puma 3100 purchased in 2016; a Puma
400MC large-capacity turning centre with
large bore capability and a Lynx 220LM
(long-bed lathe with driven tools) purchased
in 2012 and 2007 respectively.
All Doosan lathes are powerful and have
a rigid build and construction thereby
enabling Tufcot to achieve rapid cycle times
as well as high part accuracies and superior
surface finishes.
Because Tufcot only machines composite
materials - all Doosan machines at its facility
are equipped with additional seals and
extraction systems to prevent particle and
dust ingress.

TMB PATTERNS
MAKES MAJOR
GRINDING
INVESTMENT
Bridgwater-based TMB Patterns, a leading
supplier of tooling for the thermo-moulding
industry has ordered a surface grinder from
RK International Machine Tools on the back
of positive business outlook, increased work
from its customers in the thermo-forming
sector and a diversification into sub-contract
machining for the nuclear and aerospace
sectors. The surface grinding machine Perfect
PFG120-200AHD double column-type
machine (1200 mm by 2000 mm maximum
grinding surface), is one of the largest
machines of its type sold by RK International
Machine Tools in the UK.
“While concentrating on the metal-cutting
side of our operation we had taken our eye
off the pressure on our grinding section. The
old machines we had were working 16 hours
per day and are obviously an important
element of our business. However, they were
old and becoming less reliable so the time
was right to invest in the latest technology.
Our thermo-forming work tends to be
seasonal, so we took the decision some time
ago to maximise the skills we have available
to us and the two areas of nuclear and
aerospace were an ideal fit for our business
and the people we have working here. By
bringing in the Perfect grinding machine, we
will improve productivity and be well placed
to handle the increase in work that we are
seeing from nuclear and aerospace
customers. In addition, since the EU
referendum we are also seeing increased
activity in our export markets, which
represents 20 per cent of our turnover,” says
Martin Baker, Managing Director TMB
Patterns.
The Perfect grinding machine ordered in
September 2016, will be delivered in January
2017.
“TMB Patterns is a superb example of a
business looking to build on its success it has
proven that investment in modern
manufacturing technology is the way
forward and it is continuing along that path
with the purchase of this surface grinding
machine from Perfect,” says Dick Aldrich,
Sales Director, RK International Machine
Tools.

METROLOGY, INSPECTION, QUALITY CONTROL
SHOWTIME FOR METROLOGY
INNOVATIONS
The Advanced Engineering 2016 exhibition
(NEC, 2-3 November), provides an annual
platform for OEMs and tier 1 manufacturers
to meet and do business with all levels of the
engineering supply chain. Prominent at this
year’s show will be a number of high profile
metrology companies keen to demonstrate
their latest measurement, inspection and
quality control innovations.
For instance, Zoller will use the show to
launch its ‘Turning Advisor’ software
function, which allows the user to define a
variety of tool positions on turn-mill
machines. This eliminates the need for
adaptors to be set up on the machine, thus
improving efficiency during turning and
milling machining operations.
Another feature of the stand will be ‘Get
to Know Industry 4.0’, where Zoller will
discuss total connectivity solutions that
involve cyber-physical processes safely
transferring data between machines in order
to eliminate manpower and increase
production.
Also on stand L2 will be Zoller’s most
popular universal measuring machine, the
Venturion Smartcheck system. Using the
Venturion Smartcheck, visitors will be able to
carry out an interactive demonstration of the
machine and its tool presetting capabilities,
alongside an introduction to TMS (tool
management solutions).
Over on stand K9, OGP UK will be
holding the first demonstration of its new
Zone3 metrology software, which is used in
conjunction with the company’s SmartScope
multi-sensor measurement systems.
According to OGP, Zone3 allows users to
acquire faster measurements and futureproof
capabilities. It incorporates full 3D CAD
programming, interactive reporting with live
data and graphs, multi-sensor auto-path
creation and live kinematic model simulation
of the machine with DRF and GD&T
animation.
OGP will also exhibit a SmartScope CNC
200 multi-sensor measurement system, which
will feature TTL (through-the-lens) laser and
touch probe sensors. These sensors will be
used to demonstrate the system’s
metrological capabilities and speed using a
selection of both metal and plastic
components through laser scanning and
optical measurement.
Faro Technologies, on stand O60, says its
staff will be demonstrating how the
company’s range of portable 3D
measurement equipment can save time and
improve quality. On show will be products
such as the Faro Laser ScanArm, with a light
laser line probe for non-contact
measurements, and the Faro Laser Tracker for
large volume measurements.
Also on display will be a relatively new
addition to the Faro range, the Array Imager,
a metrology-grade non-contact scanner which
utilises blue light technology to capture
millions of high resolution 3D co-ordinate
measurements in seconds.
Visitors to stand C41 will see Blum
Novotest show how reliable and consistent
measurement can be conducted on machine
tools, despite the presence of coolant, which
the company says is an underestimated
source of errors. This is credit to predeflection
technology and an increased
measuring force that ensure coolant has no
impact on the actual measurement, even at a
measuring speed of 5 m/min. In addition to a
pushing measurement, the bi-directional
TC61 touch probe system enables pulling
measurements in the Z+ direction.
A further Blum innovation in the spotlight
will be the new TC63-RG and TC64-RG
Digilog surface roughness gauges, which can
evaluate the surface roughness of a part while
it remains clamped in the machine tool. Using
the TC64-RG Blum says that measurements
can be carried out up to 20 times faster when
it comes to detecting machining errors in the
micron range. For the end user, the benefits
are immediate. Reject parts are reduced by
enabling immediate reworking while the part
is still clamped in the machining or turning
centre.
Supporting these products will be the
latest RG 2.0 software that now allows
parameters such as waviness, skew or contact
area ratio to be presented for the measured
surface, in addition to the calculated
roughness values. This system can be
integrated with the Digilog software in the
control systems of machine tools.
Elsewhere at the exhibition, Alicona
(stand B31) says it will be promoting newly
developed collaborative systems created from
a combination of the company’s optical
metrology products, universal robots and
man, to provide flexible quality assurance
systems in production.
These measurement solutions can be used
either manually or automatically for the
inspection of features on large objects.
Systems can be built for quality assurance of
round, heavy components with a weight up
to 120 kg, or horizontal systems for large, flat
objects on which detailed features need to be
measured
Applications for this productionintegrated
measurement solution include the
control of sharp edges/breakout on aircraft
engine turbine disks, the detection of
chipping along the edge and the verification
of minimum radii, which is essential for
safety and reliability in the engine. The
systems can also be used to measure ‘dings’
or scratches at discreet locations on the
surfaces of these objects.
Further applications include the
measurement of mismatch on large turned
and machined objects, and the quality
assurance of circular saw blades and grinding
wheels.
The wheeled design of the Alicona
solution makes the robot portable and flexible
to use in a variety of places, which means
manufacturers have the option of taking the
measurement to the product, or taking the
product to the measurement. Furthermore,
the handling of the new robot measuring
system is said to be easy and user friendly,
either automatically or manually.
The automatic modes can be preprogrammed
and the measurements made
unattended. In manual mode, the operator
manipulates the robot arm and measuring
sensor to the required position for
measurement. Two handles and an integrated
joystick are mounted on the sensor, so the
robot is easy to move. By means of an app, a
smartphone displays the live view for
manual, precise positioning and
measurement. At the end, the user receives a
measurement report with ‘OK’ and ‘NOT OK’
statements.
Visitors to Advanced Engineering 2016
will certainly find plenty to keep them
occupied. In addition to the show floor
containing more than 700 exhibitors, the
show hosts a large open conference providing
expert industry intelligent and supply chain
opportunities delivered by OEM programme
managers and sector experts.

MAN, ROBOTS AND
MEASUREMENT
TECHNOLOGY FOR
LARGE OBJECTS
In the age of Industry 4.0 and Smart
Manufacturing, flexible production strategies
require intelligent interaction between
humans and robots.
Alicona have developed collaborative
systems created from universal robots,
Alicona optical metrology technology and
man to provide flexible quality assurance
systems in production.
These measurement solutions can be used
either manually or automatically for
inspection of features on large objects.
Systems can be built for quality assurance of
round heavy components (illustrated here)
with a weight up to 120Kg or horizontal
systems for large flat objects on which
detailed features need to be measured
Applications for this productionintegrated
measurement solution include the
control of sharp edges/break out on aircraft
engine turbine disks and to detect chipping
along the edge and to verify minimum radii,
essential for safety and reliability in the
engine. The systems can also be used to
measure “dings” or scratches at discreet
locations on the surfaces of these objects.
Other applications include the
measurement of mismatch on large turned
and machined objects, quality assurance of
circular saw blades or grinding wheels.
The wheeled design makes the robot
portable and flexible to use in a variety of
places. Manufacturers have the option of
taking the measurement to the product or
taking the product to the measurement.
The handling of the new robot measuring
systems is very easy and user friendly either
automatically or manually. The Automatic
modes can be preprogrammed and the
measurements made unattended.
In manual mode the operator manipulates
the robot arm and measuring sensor to the
required position for measurement, two
handles and integrated joystick are mounted
on the sensor, so the robot is easy to move. By
means of an app, a smartphone displays the
live view for manual, precise positioning and
measurement. At the end the user receives a
measurement report with OK and NOT OK
statements.
For Alicona smart manufacturing is based
on the interaction of machines and their
operators. Our smart systems unite the
measurement and machining process,
allowing for automated measurements and
the integration of advanced robotics. As a
user you benefit from higher accuracy and
speed of production. Additionally, it helps
you to increase workplace efficiencies and
worker safety.

RAPID,
NON-CONTACT INSPECTION OF
COMPLEX PARTS
A non-contact measuring system has been introduced by Nikon Metrology for high-speed,
3D measurement of gears, impellers, hobs, turbine blades and other complex components to
accuracies measured in single-figure microns.
Featuring an advanced laser scanner, the HN-C3030 represents a major step forward in
ultra-fast shape evaluation compared with traditional tactile measurement. By scanning a
component and comparing it with the original CAD file, users obtain better insights into
product conformity, resulting in faster problem-solving and earlier time-to-market.
As components have become ever more complex, the demand for rapid, accurate
measurement has increased. To achieve high precision, Nikon has developed special optics
for the laser scanner that even enables inspection of glossy or dark surfaces without manual
preparation like powder spraying.
Synchronised, 5-axis positioning is an important element. The compact HN-C3030
controls a high-precision 3-axis drive system as well as a 360-degree rotary stage and a -20
to +135 degree laser scanner swing arm. It enables wide areas covering the top and sides and
even the bottom surface of parts to be scanned. In addition, the direction of the laser scanner
can be rotated between -180 and +180 degrees, allowing scanning of shapes from optimum
angles.
The system is capable of inspecting all toothed surfaces on a single automotive bevel gear
in five minutes, for example, acquiring surface point clouds at a rate of 120,000 points per
second. This is a massive multiple of the number of points that can be measured by tactile
inspection. The result is a full 3D scan of the part, whereas tactile scanning acquires only
individual points or lines. A detailed, 3D digital copy gives not only full shape or section
information, but also deep insight into surface profile and tooth wear that are hardly
detectable by tactile measurement.
The software features acquisition and analysis tools for optimum scanning of various
sizes, shapes and surface conditions. Comparison of point clouds to the original CAD file
provides colourful, easy-to-interpret 3D deviation reports. For more advanced inspection,
dedicated gear software enables easy creation of teaching files and tooth analysis in the same
format as with conventional contact measurement systems.

BLUM DELIVERS QUALITY
THROUGH COOPERATION
Luren Precision Ltd. is a renowned manufacturer of gear grinding machines and cutting tools.
Since 2009, the Taiwanese company has been using metrology technology from Blum-
Novotest. The trigger for co-operation this was the introduction of innovative DIGILOG
technology from the German metrology manufacturer.
Luren was founded in Hsinchu City in 1994 and in the first few years, the Taiwanese
company mainly developed and produced high-precision gear cutting tools such as hobs and
shaving cutters. To optimise the company's production process; the business started to
develop machine tools and the pertaining software. The company's developments proved
indispensable in the production process of shaving cutters include sharpening devices, gear
grinding machines and worm grinding machines.
One of the company's objectives was to strengthen the worldwide market position through
the capability and productivity of its machines and tools for gear production. The contact
between Blum-Novotest and Luren was established at an international fair at which the
German specialist for measuring technology had introduced its complete range of production
metrology for machine tools as well as its scanning touch probe the TC76-DIGILOG.
Until that time, only digital systems were used for measuring within the machine tools and
the grinding centres used alternate systems to measure its gears. However, the digital
measurements were very time consuming due to the many probing operations. So, Luren
started looking for a way to check the workpieces faster and found the solution at BLUM.
With its TC76-DIGILOG, Blum-Novotest was the first company to facilitate a machineintegrated
scanning and measurement system for gear grinding machines.
Through the scanning measurement using the Blum TC76-DIGILOG touch probe, the
deviations between the actual workpiece surface and the CAD data are determined almost
instantaneously. The measuring speed in this process is more than five times faster than with
point-by-point digital measurement, reaching up to 1000 measured values per second. The
high number of measured values makes it possible to filter out outliers by means of statistical
analysis, which results in even more precise and reliable measuring results.

MAKE MEASUREMENTS MATTER
MEASUREMENT IN MANUFACTURING 2016 SET
TO PROVIDE A TECHNOLOGY TRANSFER
GTMA will host its Measurement in
Manufacturing road show on Thursday, 13th
October 2016. The event will be held at the
Concord Sports Centre, Sheffield, just a five
minute drive from Junction 34 of the M1. An
excellent event venue with extensive
facilities, it has free parking for over 140
vehicles. Registration starts from 8.30 am and
the event finishes at 4pm with free
refreshments provided.
Registration is now open at
www.measurementinmanufacturing.co.uk
Along with extensive networking
opportunities in an environment set to
nurture strong business links, a key focus of
the event will be over 50 of the top UK
inspection, metrology and measurement
services companies, as well as engineering
specialists that will be exhibiting.
Demonstrating the very latest technology,
these companies are active participants in
creating successful engineering solutions for
the current and future demands of all
industry sectors. Visitors will also benefit
from free parking and free refreshments.
Providing a focal point for the transfer of
technology from the science of measurement
into the most demanding manufacturing
environments, MIM 2016 will deliver an
opportunity for attendees to learn more
about the very latest measurement and
inspection technologies and services
available. “Knowledge gained here could
provide a vital competitive business edge,”
states association chief executive, Julia
Moore. “With keynote speakers from
industry-leading 'blue chip' manufacturing
companies, such as Rolls-Royce, Jaguar Land
Rover and Renishaw, it is the must attend
metrology and manufacturing event in the
UK.”
Chairman for the event is Roger Digby,
Group Technical Director, Exova Group.
As one of the world's leading laboratorybased
testing groups, Exova is trusted by
organisations to test and advise on the safety,
quality and performance of their products,
systems and operations. It employs over
more than 4,300 global experts operating
from 138 facilities in 33 countries to support
around 25,000 customers worldwide.
He says: “It is no longer acceptable to say
you are doing something, you have to prove
it. So, measurement and inspection within
manufacturing is vital. Without it no
technical product could be made to a
required standard, and subsequently verified
and certified.
The growing demand for measurement in
manufacturing is driven on three fronts
legislation and regulation, improvement in
manufacturing processes to reduce
environmental impact and increase
efficiency, and the introduction of innovative
technologies.
“Stringent targets are being applied to
existing products and processes, while new
materials and manufacturing technologies -
such as additive manufacturing - require
measurement and control, along with
process parameter and end product
validation to ensure that parts manufactured
using these emerging technologies meet the
design intent.
Attendees to this event will have access to
a whole range of experts in their fields in a
non-competitive environment that promotes
knowledge transfer and best practice.” There
is little doubt that good measurement
systems equate to better business decisions,
and MIM 2016 will provide the ideal
opportunity for visitors to find out about
how metrology can influence and improve
their businesses.

ADVANCED ENGINEERING SHOW
XYZ SIMPLICITY
AIDS ADVANCED
ENGINEERING
XYZ Machine Tools have supplied some of the
UK’s leading manufacturers with machine tool
technology. These customers cover the entire
spectrum of what can be described as advanced
manufacturing, including leading lights in
formula one, aerospace, power generation,
defence and electronics sector. Its success across
all of these industries is down to its diverse
range of machines and the ease of use and
versatility that they provide. This will all be
highlighted at Advanced Engineering (stand
C1) on the 2nd and 3rd November at the
National Exhibition Centre, Birmingham.
At Advanced Engineering XYZ will have on
display a selection of machines to include its ever
popular ProtoTRAK controlled lathes and mills,
the innovative XYZ 2-OP portable vertical
machining centre and the Siemens controlled
XYZ CT52 turning centre and XYZ 710 VMC
vertical machining centre. The machines
exhibited with the class-leading ProtoTRAK
control system are the XYZ SMX 3500 bed mill,
XYZ SLX 355 lathe and the XYZ 2-OP vertical
machining centre. ProtoTRAK is a highly
versatile control system that belies its simplicity
by being able to produce complex components,
programmed in a very short space of time,
without years of experience. Its intuitive
conversational interface makes programming
shapes and forms in either two or three axes
straightforward. The speed at which it can be
programmed makes a ProtoTRAK controlled
machine ideal for one-off and prototype work, as
well as ongoing small to medium size batch
production. Beyond the control the XYZ bed mill
and SLX lathe ranges provide a robust machining
platform with solid Meehanite cast bases, Turcite-
B coated bedways on the mills, and extra wide
vee and flat bedways on the SLX lathes.
The XYZ 2-OP with its ProtoTRAK TMX
control continues to revolutionise the way in
which companies operate. This vertical
machining centre has been designed to allow
cellular manufacturing to take place anywhere
in the factory thanks to its compact construction
that allows the machine to be located wherever
it is needed. The advantage of using the XYZ 2-
OP for cellular manufacturing includes reduced
cycle times, improved workflow, maximising
available labour resources and freeing up more
expensive machine tools from menial tasks such
as pre-op, or 2nd op work.

CGtech TO FEATURE VERICUT VERSION 8
CGTech unveiled the new VERICUT Version 8
at the 2016 International Machine Tool Show
(IMTS) in Chicago, in September . VERICUT
Version 8 will also be featured in the UK at 2016
events including the Advanced Engineering
group of events at the NEC November 2-3.
VERICUT Machine simulation detects
collisions and near-misses between all machine
tool components such as axis slides, heads, turrets,
rotary tables, spindles, tool changers, fixtures,
workpieces, cutting tools, and other user-defined
objects. Users can also set up ‘near-miss zones’
around components to check for close calls and
detect over-travel errors. Machine movements
and material replacement can even be simulated
while stepping or playing backwards.
VERICUT CNC machine simulation,
verification and optimisation software
simulates all types of CNC machining,
including drilling and trimming of composite
parts, water jet, riveting, robots, mill/turn and
parallel kinematics. The software operates
independently, but can also be integrated with
leading CAM systems including Dassault
Systemes CATIA, Siemens PLM NX, Autodesk
PowerMill and Vero EdgeCAM.
VERICUT V8 features a new Ribbon Bar
allowing the user to quickly select the required
function. As you move from tab to tab, the
Ribbon bar dynamically updates to show the
options available and options are grouped by
the function they perform within VERICUT.
“VERICUT 8 is all about optimising our
customers’ workflow to quickly access only the
menu choices needed at the time,” said
SCHUNK, the world wide competence leader
for clamping technology and gripping systems
will once again be showing why its product
range is the industry benchmark at Advanced
Engineering 2016. At the Birmingham NEC
from the 2nd to 3rd November, in Hall 3 on
Stand E42, the German manufacturer will be
showing a variety of new and established
product lines; with some toolholding and
workholding products on-offer as part of
SCHUNK's 'Trade-In' promotion.
As a firm favorite among the industry,
SCHUNK will once again be demonstrating the
capabilities of its ROTA-S Plus chuck. With an
optimised wedge bar drive system, a jaw
change time of less than 60 seconds and an
improved lubricant system, the ROTA-S Plus
ensures a consistently high clamping force that
exceeds the performance from alternate lathe
chucks. Making higher
rotational speeds and
cutting speeds are
possible, users can apply
more efficient cutting
strategies that shorten
the manufacturing time.
From the toolholding
stable, SCHUNK will be
emphasising the benefits
of its TENDO E compact
hydraulic expansion
toolholder. Capable of
reducing set-up times by
up to 80% whilst
VERICUT Product Manager, Gene Cranata.
“The Ribbon Bar helps users find the
functionality they need quickly and with
minimal mouse clicks.”
The accuracy of the data input will directly
affect the output. So, an accurate model of the
cutting tool and holder is required for the
effective and accurate simulation of the
machining process. Leading cutting tool
manufacturers, such as Sandvik, Kennametal
and Iscar, now make 3D solid model data
available and VERICUT can read in this model
data for use in the simulation process. Many of
the 3D models are available via the Machining
Cloud App, and version 8 has been enhanced to
take advantage of more Machining Cloud
metadata. This can significantly simplify the
configuration of tools for use in VERICUT.
VERICUT simulates every machine tool
brand, including DMG MORI, MAZAK,
Makino, Matsuura, Hermle, Chiron, Starrag,
WFL, Okuma and many more.

NEW PRODUCTS – NEW PRODUCTS – NEW PRODUCTS
ITC INTRODUCES
THE NEXT
GENERATION OF
INDEXABLE
DRILLING
If you believe having a single, versatile tool
simplifies your job significantly, you'll want
to check out the latest Top Cut 4 drilling line
from Widia that is now available from
Industrial Tooling Corporation (ITC).
Specifically designed for versatility, the
newly developed Top Cut 4 efficiently
machines a broad assortment of materials.
With the new drill, manufacturers can feel
confident when applying one tool to a variety
of drilling applications and work piece
materials. This is because the Top Cut 4 is
offered with three Victory grades and two
different geometries for drilling steel,
stainless steel and cast iron. The new drilling
line is available in diameters from 12 to
68mm.
For the customer with a workload that
changes on a daily basis where stable or
unstable conditions are the norm, the Top
Cut 4 guarantees the highest standards of
cost efficiency and quality for any drilling
operation, in any given situation. The Widia
Top Cut 4 from ITC is a proven solution for
all drilling problems as it can reduce
inventory with one tool being applied to
multiple operations. Furthermore, the Top
Cut 4 generates impressive tool life and
consistent performance when cutting at
accelerated speeds.
A true multi-problem-solver in one
platform, Top Cut 4 is targeted to end users
that need one drill that can be applied in a
variety of drilling applications and different
workpiece materials. Top Cut 4’s breadth of
application capabilities include through- and
cross-holes, inclined entry and exit, 45º
corner, half-cylindrical, concave and chain
drilling.
With outstanding flexibility, unique
centring capabilities and 4 edge inserts for
both pocket seats, the Top Cut 4 delivers
rigidity, stability and tool life that is beyond
alternate products. Capable of cutting at up
to 5XD, the Top Cut 4 has a particularly large
chip gullet for maximum material removal

THERMAL MANAGEMENT
OPTIMISATION ACHIEVED
GF Machining Solutions has introduced the
new AgieCharmilles AM S 290 Tooling
additive manufacturing system, a
collaborative project undertaken with EOS,
into the market.
The machine is based on EOS’ M 290
direct metal laser sintering (DMLS) system
and extends the range of opportunities open
to mould and die manufacturers.
EOS’ Additive Manufacturing (AM)
technology facilitates the optimised
positioning and production of conformal
cooling channels in moulds and mould
inserts. As a consequence heat is more
effectively dissipated from both the mould
tool and the plastic parts being
produced…resulting in significantly reduced
cycle times as well as ensuring improved part
quality and increased part dimensional
accuracies.
Other advantages of fast and effective
thermal exchange include the reduction of
thermal stress in the mould tool itself - which
extends mould tool life and performance.
In injection moulding, the cooling time of
a finished product can constitute up to 70 per
cent of the total cycle time. Processes and
solutions therefore that can reduce cooling
times are clearly a ‘good thing.’
In the past, and using conventional mould
making techniques, temperature control or
cooling channels could only be drilled in
straight lines. As a consequence critical
hotspots often remained out of the coolant’s
reach.
Hainbuch has now published the 2016/17
edition of its workholding and clamping
catalogue. The latest edition of the Hainbuch
product catalogue is packed with almost 500
pages of clamping technology and peripheral
equipment that has been designed to reduce
set-up times, improve clamping processes,
Using Direct Metal Laser Sintering (such
as that employed in the AM S 290 machine),
it is now possible to integrate optimised,
conformal cooling channels into the mould
and mould inserts during the production
process.
Mould makers can ensure thermal
exchange occurs closer to the surface of a
mould, improving temperature homogeneity
- helping reduce throughput times and
increase operational efficiencies.
This new industrial 3D printing machine
wraps EOS’ proven DMLS technology into a
GF Machining Solutions’ frame creating an
integrated bridge between EOS’ 3D printing
and GFMS’ machining, automation and
software systems.

HAINBUCH PUBLISHES
NEW PRODUCT CATALOGUE
precision and repeatability whilst delivering
uncompromising quality levels.
Packed with established and proven
technology as well as all the latest
innovations, the 2016/17 publication is
broken into easy-to-find sections that include
the latest clamping devices, quick change
systems, clamping elements, accessories and
even equipment for special purpose machines
such as sliding head turning centres. Each of
these core competences is separated into subsections
that enable the reader to quickly
locate their product of choice.
The remarkably large 'clamping device'
section is identified by chucks, mandrels,
stationary clamping and adaption clamping
devices. Just like the products in this
comprehensive new catalogue, Hainbuch has
designed the publication to save time and
effort for the customer. To download the new
catalogue from the Hainbuch website, visit:
http://212.227.57.133/katalog/english/2016
/ or to receive a printed hard copy call the
