Holemaking in steel and cast iron up to one inch in diameter is one of the most widely used metalworking processes. What is driving drilling and tapping performance are advances in substrate, coatings, three-flute designs, and combination tools. Just as important are advances in coolant delivery, using different size holes and shapes to facilitate chip evacuation.

EMAG Group Acquisition: Samputensili Machine Tools and Samputensili CLC have become EMAG SU.

Many of the strongest shops are challenging the convention that manufacturing is a conservative sector when it comes to new technology.

For most of its history in manufacturing, metrology’s competitive arena was at the point of measurement.

The concept of smart manufacturing has been evolving for a decade among leading manufacturers, expert practitioners and consortia organizations like CESMII–the U.S.

When a legacy automotive or aircraft part breaks and needs a replacement, manufacturers currently have no good options.

I first wrote about substitute skin in 1993. And at the time, it seemed that stand-in organs—at scale—were imminent.

Good science does not equate to workable manufacturing. This has been a longstanding truth in tissue engineering, a field that has been in limbo between academic R&D and commercialization for its entire decades-long existence.

Some shops think routine machine tool maintenance is overrated. Bad idea. The big order’s running late. The lead programmer called in sick.

The machines that make our world continue to advance. Six-axis CNC milling machines, seven-axis robots, collaborative robots, and smart presses are more powerful than ever, with micron- level accuracy.
