Edges to rely on - In a small country in the northern hemisphere, a team of experts at Sandvik Coromant was facing the challenge of creating a grade that would last longer than ever before in the broadest possible range of steel turning applications.
The Tecnomagnete range of Italian-made, permanent-electromagnetic workholding systems introduced to the UK last year by sole agent, 1st Machine Tool Accessories, includes the compact MillTEC Grip magnetic clamping system for 5-axis and five-sided metal cutting applications.
A hydraulically-actuated, double-acting clamp with a long travel, ideal for workholding in production systems having robotic or otherwise automated component load/unload, has been introduced by Roemheld.
