Swiss-Style Lathes from Gosiger

May 18, 2011

The concept behind Nomura's Swiss-turning philosophy is simple, “A person watching a machine takes away from profit.” In most circumstances one operator can manage up to 5 Nomura Swiss-style lathes.

Factory Automation Systems Using FANUC Robots

April 1, 2011

It might have started after the successful installation of your last CNC machining center or even at the last machine tool show you attended.

Hardinge FlexC Collet Systems are Compatible With Many CNC Lathes

March 16, 2011

Hardinge FlexC collet systems are compatible with many CNC lathes and are interchangeable with other brands on the market. Substitute a FlexC collet system for 16C, 20C and 25C collet applications to meet special accuracy requirements, or mount it on a chuck-style lathe or rotary indexer for increased versatility. The spindle mount will fit on A2-5, A2-6, A2-8 and some flat back spindles (main and sub). Once the FlexC spindle mount is attached, different collet head sizes can be interchanged from job to job. Hardinge stocks 42 and 65mm collet sizes in round smooth and serrated styles. Hex and square sizes are made to order. Some examples of custom-manufactured applications include stepped holes, special shapes and off-center work.
