Picture
Platinum Tooling, the importer of live tools, angle heads, marking tools, Swiss tools, and multiple spindle tools manufactured by various global suppliers, has been importing and stocking Henninger Speed Increasers in North America since 2019.   

Henninger,  located in southwest Germany is a manufacturer of specialized equipment and precision machine tool accessories. Spindle Speeders, mechanical, air, and electric motor driven, Custom Angle Heads and Live Centers are amongst their specialties. ​

These systems are particularly useful for small-diameter tools that require more rpms than the machine tool spindle offers. Speeders enable using small-diameter tools that require more rpms than the machine spindle can offer. An additional benefit is said to be less wear on the machine spindle because it is not required to run at maximum rpm.

These speed increasers help maximize productivity by achieving a higher spindle rpm required for certain applications in today’s marketplace. 

Mechanical speeders are available with up to a 1:8 gear ratio and a maximum speed of 50,000 rpm. Air speeders can run continuously at up to 80,000 rpm and high frequency motor spindles can maintain up to 80,000 rpm with high torque, and have variable speed options.

Many of the speeders have automatic tool change capabilities and are modular in design to offer the customer greater flexibility.
​
Henninger also manufactures custom angle heads, live centers, face drivers, and live chucks.

Change the Cutting Insert without Removing the Toolholder with the New SuperMini from Horn USA

2/15/2023

0 Comments

 
Horn USA has introduced its proven Supermini tool holder system with face clamping as a set, thereby responding to customer requests for different tooling system heights.
Picture
As a result of the design of the Supermini, clamping is not carried out via the lateral surface of the cutting insert but via a clamping wedge on the face.  This results in a greater holding force on the insert and thus high rigidity of the entire system.
This style of clamping increases repeatability when changing the insert and provides better utilization of the available space. This proves to be a huge timesaver on Swiss-type lathes, as the machinist can change the cutting insert without removing the tool holder.
​
The set consists of a round shank holder and three different clamping elements. The latter are suitable for the three different insert heights of the Supermini system, 03, 04 and 05. A customer can select the desired diameter of the round shank holder when ordering. Horn offers it in the diameters 10 mm, 12 mm, 16 mm, 20 mm, 22 mm, 25 mm and 28 mm. Inch dimensions are available in 1/2", 5/8", 3/4" and 1" diameters. All sets are available from stock.

Mate 52/96 Workholding System Built by machinists for machinists
Mate Precision Technologies may be a new name to some folks in the tooling and workholding industry, but Mate has decades of machining experience producing precision, high quality steel products for customers around the world.

Mate created a new standard in Rotary Toolholders decades ago when they introduced the Command Toolholder brand that set a new bar by holding an AT3 taper tolerance.  Mate then moved into Punch Press Tooling, Press Brake and Laser Tooling and has become the world leader in each of those markets. Using this knowledge, Mate set out about 7 years ago to design and develop the ultimate workholding system.

The Mate 52/96 zero point workholding system maximizes holding power in a compact, quick change modular design that reduces setup time and process variability. It is ideal for 3-, 4- and 5-axis machining centers. Going beyond machining, it can be used in a variety of applications such as inspection, CMM, cleaning, washing, assembly and additive manufacturing.

Their zero point 52/96 workholding system is compatible with similar systems, including 52mm and 96mm four post pull stud configurations from Lang, Jergens, 5th Axis, Gerardi and others. The vises also accept a single pull stud configuration for compatibility with Schunk, Big Daishowa and others. By using the appropriate adapter, Mate 52/96 zero point vises are easily modified to work with systems from SMW, Erowa, System 3R and others. It is perhaps the most well thought out and versatile system on the market today.

With an eye to factory automation, the Mate 52/96 zero point workholding system includes QuickSpecsTM, a unique QR code based product identification system that provides real-time access to product information and potential integration into your business systems. The system also supports common robotic interfaces and palletizing systems.

Blue Photon Grip Pallet System Jergens worlholding
Did you miss IMTS 2022? Check out the video below recapping the Blue Photon adhesive workholding solutions that was on display. 

Blue Photon’s adhesive workholding solves problems associated with current workholding devices. The technology allows the user to hold parts and most materials without clamping. It also offers fixture design and engineering for milling, turning, grinding, electrical discharge machining (ECM), electro-chemical machining (EDM), 3D printing, laser, inspection, and assembly applications, including aerospace, additive, robotics, and medical machining.
Blue Photon Grip Pallets are designed to simplify how parts are loaded, reduce scrap and increase spindle uptime.
Available in 150, 225 and 300 mm square pallets, the Grip Pallets are designed for quick change and adhesive workholding of complex and hard-to-hold parts for EDM, grinding, inspection, laser and milling operations.

​The pallets can hold parts securely, providing increased machining access on five to six surfaces while using standardized fixturing systems already in place.
Blue Photon’s grippers are inserted into new external inserts, designed specifically for the Grip Pallets. The external inserts are available for use with small, medium and large grippers. The new inserts allow for simple installation of the grippers at the required height for maximum holding power.

The 150-mm square pallet is available in aluminum and steel with a 52-mm pattern for a quick change receiver that will hold up to nine grippers. The 225-mm square pallet is available in aluminum and steel with a 96-mm pattern for a quick change receiver that will hold up to 21 grippers.

Taking a look at live tooling

11/29/2022

by Preben Hansen
This article originally appeared in Cutting Tool Engineering. 
Platinum Toolings Preben Hansen’s Look at Live Tooling in Cutting Tool Engineering
Live tooling, as a component on a lathe, is specifically manipulated by the CNC to perform various milling, drilling and other operations while the workpiece is being held in position by the main or sub-spindle. 

​These components, whether BMT or VDI, are also called driven tools, as opposed to static tools, that are used during turning operations.
All live and static tools are built per the machine tool builder’s specifications for each of the various models they produce. A key to running a successful job shop or production department is to partner with a supplier who can meet the tooling needs for all or most of the machines on your floor.
​
Most often, live tooling is offered in standard straight and 90-degree angle head configurations with a wide range of tool output clamping systems, including ER collet chuck, arbor, Weldon, Capto, whistle notch, hydraulic, HSK, CAT, ABS, and a variety of custom or proprietary systems developed by the many suppliers to the industry.

Need a new tool?

When the need arises for a new machine tool, careful consideration should be made to determine which live tools are appropriate for your application. While a standard machine tool package will help you get started, it is important to anticipate job and volume changes, as well unforeseen machining challenges from the beginning, in order to avoid machine downtime.
Heimatec Multi-spindle tool brings the improved cutting capacity to your lathe
Heimatec Multi-spindle tool brings the improved cutting capacity to your lathe
This short article is meant to give you a set of parameters to consider when evaluating the live and static tooling to use in your shop or production department.  

Simply stated, you need to do as much evaluation of your process, when determining the proper tooling to be used, as you did when you evaluated the various machines available for purchase.  This fact is often overlooked and that can be a critical error, in the long run. 

Your examination can range from the simple such as external vs. internal coolant, for example, to the sublime including adjustable or multi-spindle configurations, to the custom tool, which may be required and built to suit your special application.  Finding a supplier who has an in-house machine shop for the preparation of special tools is a great value-add.    ​

Tooling needs

Tool life is the product of cutting intensity, materials processed, machine stability and parts produced. Two seemingly identical job shops can have vastly different tooling needs because one is automotive and one is medical, or one specializes in the one-off and low-volume work, while the other has a greater occurrence of longer running jobs. The totality of your operation determines the best tooling for the machines being purchased.

Bearing construction and the resulting spindle concentricity drive the life of any tool. You might find that just a 10-15% greater investment in a better design can yield both longer-lasting cutters and consistently superior finish on your products.  ​
Of course, the stability and rigidity of the machine tool are always critical factors.  Bevel and spur gears that are hardened, ground and lapped in sets are best for smooth transition and maximum torque output.
 
Taper roller bearings are consistently superior to spindle bearings in live tool milling applications, so look for a combination system to get the highest rigidity possible.  Also, look for an internal vs. external collet nut, so the cutting tool seats more deeply in the tool, as superior performance will result.
Platinum Tooling Universal style adjustable live tool might be the ideal solution for families of parts
A multispindle tool can bring improved cutting capacity to your lathe
Likewise, high pressure internal coolant might be desirable.  Look for 2000 psi capabilities in 90 degree tools and 1000 psi in straight tools.

You need to ask another question, namely, is the turret RPM sufficient to handle the work to be done?   
​
It’s possible that a live tool with a built-in speed increaser, often called a speed multiplier, would be helpful. Would it be beneficial to move secondary operations to your lathe?  Gear hobbing can be accomplished in this manner, as can producing squares or flats, through the use of polygon machining. ​
Standard live tooling most often is best suited to production work, where the finish, tolerances and cutter life are critical, while quick-change systems may be better suited to the shop producing families of products and other applications where the tool presetting offline is a key factor in keeping the shop at maximum productivity.  It’s a given in our industry that when the machine isn’t running, the money isn’t coming.

This opens the discussion of long-term flexibility and it’s the most often overlooked consideration in buying live tools.  You might ask, ‘what work do you currently have in the shop and what work will be coming in the future?’

The overall economies of a changeable adapter system on your tooling may be a consideration not often made when your focus is centered on the machine being purchased.  
Combination spindle and roller bearings are best for tool rigidity on axial tools, while roller bearings improve radial tool performance
Combination spindle and roller bearings are best for tool rigidity on axial tools, while roller bearings improve radial tool performance
​Dedicated tools for large families of products may often be desirable for some applications, but do consider whether a flexible changing system would be more appropriate. Talk to your tooling supplier for the various options, before making that determination.
​ 
If standard ER tooling is suitable for the work, there are many good suppliers. It is important though, to pay close attention to the construction aspects noted above. For a quick-change or changeable adapter system, there are fewer suppliers in the market, so seek them out and be sure they can supply the product styles you need for all your lathe brands.

Testing live tool performance

Now, an application example showing clear evidence of the value of testing live tool performance...

One company was performing a cross-milling application using an ER 32 output tool on a Eurotech lathe, running 10 ipm at 4000 rpm.  They were making three passes with a cycle time of 262 seconds and were having difficulties with chatter on the finish, while producing 20,000 pieces per year. ​
haas bmt vdi live-stati -tooling
Internal clamping nut seats the cutting tool closer to the bearings.
The annual cost of the machining was over $130,000.  By using an alternative live tool with an ER 32AX output, internal collet nut design, with the same parameters, they were able to produce the part in a single pass with a smooth finish and cycle time of just 172 seconds.  Over the course of the year, this yielded a cost savings of $45,000, approximately 20x the cost of the tool.  

​The bottom line is the bottom line, as the accountants tell us.   
In the end, you may not need a universal adjustable tool or a multi-spindle live holder or even a quick-change adapter system, but do consider all these options.  Talk to your machine builder and several tool suppliers, plus the most important people in this equation, your shop personnel, as their input is invaluable to keeping you up and running in a profitable, customer-satisfying scenario.

Dorian Tool Jet Stream Delivers High Velocity Coolant to the cutting edge

10/20/2022

0 Comments

 
As seen at IMTS 2022. ​Dorian Tool’s Jet-StreamTM Thru Coolant Cutting Tools use a patented thru-coolant locking clamp which is precisely aimed to direct high pressure, high velocity coolant exactly onto the cutting edge of the carbide insert, from a short distance of 1⁄4”.
Dorian Tool Jet Stream through coolant system
Dorian Tool Jet Stream through coolant system
This controlled Jet-Stream coolant, directed onto the insert chip interface (right under the chip and over the insert cutting edge) will dissipate the generated heat very effectively as well as lubricate the cutting edge of the insert, causing the chips to hydroplane over the insert surface instead of adhering to it. As a result, the insert will operate at a constant low temperature, with a clean and undamaged cutting edge, changing the way metal is cut.

Higher speeds and feeds can be achieved, with a better surface finish, tolerance control and machining performance.
​
The insert life is extended up to 200%.
