Increasing demand for lighter landing gear forced aero subcontractor Messier-Bugatti-Dowty to think in new ways. To achieve its goals it needed to rope in help.
Industry
Every industry has unique challenges and demands. Search MyYellowCoat.com to find relevant articles, information and videos relevant to the industries you serve. Whether you're facing demands relating to tool life, quality consistency, or productivity levels, Sandvik Coromant has the expertise and resources to help put your success in focus.
Quality control along with achieving good security and productivity levels are the drivers in tool selection. Sandvik Coromant and Precorp diamond coated and PCD-vein technology drills have been developed as dedicated solutions to suit various material and set-up applications.
In this web cast we examine an innovative new threading concept, CoroThread 266, with applications in oil and gas, mechanical, and aerospace industries. Learn how this new threading approach inhibits movement in the insert and improves both accuracy and indexability.
In micromachining, the parts may be small, but the tooling and machining options are wide open. And with all of the challenges that come with micromachining — tight tolerances, stringent quality demands, hard-to-machine materials — choosing the right methods is critical.
It all started as a small machinery workshop in Hong Kong some 30 years ago. The LK Group used Sandvik Coromant’s Productivity Improvement Program and is today the world’s largest manufacturer of die casting machines.
The CoroMill 210 high feed milling cutter can be used for some face milling, ramping, circular milling and plunge milling. With a ten-degree entering angle, the cutter is capable of very high feed rates and consequently large removal rates. The small entering angle results in dominantly axial cutting forces, improving milling with longer tool reach, and a favorable chip-thinning effect.
Coromant Capto is the most stable tool-holding system available and is now an ISO-standard. It is a modular, quick-change system suitable for rotating and stationary tools, and as such can be used throughout an entire machine shop with different machinery. As a modular interface, it combines cutting tools, adaptors, extensions and basic holders to great flexibility.
Wind power is a red hot market. Experts predict that from 40,000 to 60,000 new wind turbines will be put into operation every year through 2020. But will future windmills look the way they always have? Not necessarily. Think kites, fluttering panels and flying islands with enormous arms.
Operations, such as straight boring, profiling, grooving or pocketing, are characterized by being the most challenging as regards applying the coolant optimally, achieving suitable chips and evacuating chips safely and efficiently. For high pressure coolant applications there are a number of CoroTurn HP solutions that provide the benefits for internal machining — whatever the depth of hole.
To position itself in China’s rapidly expanding high-speed rail sector, Germany’s Voith Turbo has built what it says is the world’s most flexible factory and has been driving development of pioneering technologies for gear manufacturing with the help of Sandvik Coromant tooling.
