Orscheln's Screw Machine Division (formerly known as Qualico Precision Products), Moberly, Missouri has recently added two new CNC lathes.

This Orscheln location offers screw machine products, plating and coatings and is a QS9000 registered company.

The two new EmcoTurn 420MC plus model CNC lathes handle stock up to 1" in diameter and feature two spindles with two sub-spindles and 12' auto barfeeders.

The new lathes bring the total CNC lathes at Orscheln up to six.

"Like the previous CNC lathes, the new ones have helped us improve our productivity and quality as well as increase our capacity." stated Orscheln's Plant Superintendent Daryl Duchesne. "Our CNC department now runs 24/7."

Duchesne noted that the company has also upgraded its MRP system and now has "real-time" tracking of inventory and production via barcoding.

The company has 37 other screw machines (single and multi-spindle) and various secondary equipment. It specializes in high volume, long run, precision screw machine components, but is capable of low volume orders as well.
The screw machine operation works with steel, brass, aluminum, copper, stainless steel and plastics up to 1 3/4" diameter in round, hex, tube and square stock.

In addition to making parts, Orscheln also has several plating options available to protect those parts from rust. The company's line is a barrel plating line capable of both small and large volumes for zinc phosphate and zinc trivalent chromate.

Coatings offered include dipspin Magni-Coating, Elisha's EMC (Electrolitic Mineral Coat) process and powder coating. EMC is a completely chromate-free alternative that, when used with a topcoat, can yield very high saltspray results.

The company serves a diverse range of customers in such industries as: automotive, off-highway, furniture, computer, marine, aircraft, military, lawn & garden, heavy truck, recreation, construction and agriculture.

"The additional CNC equipment enables us to better serve our existing customer base, as well as new customers," stated Orscheln's Jerry Frans, sales representative.

Landis Evolution CNC Grinder enables precision plunge and traverse peel grinding of multiple part features in same cycle. High-speed spindle permits grinding wheel speeds to 250 m/sec with part rotation to 7,500 rpm. Grinder incorporates granite base, workhead spindle-mounted rotary diamond dresser, and 5 mm wide CBN wheel to contour complex part shapes. Programmable unit offers less than 1 min part-to-part changeover time.


High-speed "peel" grinding process provides lathe-like programming and performance

Chicago, IL, September 6, 2006 - Cinetic Landis Grinding Corp. (Waynesboro, PA) has introduced its Evolution high-speed CNC grinder at IMTS-2006 in booth B-7045 at McCormick Place. This exceptionally fast, rigid grinder enables precision plunge and traverse peel grinding of multiple part features in the same cycle. The Landis Evolution was developed to meet the demand for high throughput to reduce piece costs, along with flexibility to accommodate multiple part features and many part families. The machine incorporates a high-speed spindle to permit grinding wheel speeds up to 250m/sec with the part rotating at up to 7,500 rpm.

Outfitted with a narrow, 5 mm wide CBN wheel, the Evolution grinder can contour complex part shapes much like a lathe but with grinding accuracy and surface quality. Grinding at such fast speeds produces smaller chips that help improve surface quality on critical parts like transmission shafts. Various part features including faces and grooves can be accomplished in the same machine, which eliminates additional processes and avoids parasitic time for part handling. And the machine can be programmed to handle a large family of parts with part-to-part changeover in less than one minute.

No part drivers are required with the new Evolution grinder. The machine features a granite base and incorporates a workhead spindle-mounted rotary diamond dresser. A choice of Siemens or Fanuc CNC control is offered.

Designed to optimize CNC machining process, VERICUT v6.0 can simulate multiple setups in single session. Collision checking monitors spindle states, enabling program to catch programming errors with spindle and cutting tool usage. With in-process model of simulated workpiece, inspection and process documents accurately reflect state of workpiece at any stage of process. Model Export creates CAD models from in-process cut model generated by simulating NC program.


(Chicago, Illinois - Wednesday, September 6, 2006) - CGTech showed the latest version of VERICUT CNC machine simulation and optimization software at IMTS in booth D-3035. VERICUT 6.0 has many new features designed to increase the ability of CNC manufacturing engineers to analyze and optimize the entire CNC machining process in order to increase manufacturing efficiency.

"Due to global competitive pressures on our customers CGTech is increasingly challenged to simulate more complex processes and more complex machines," said Product Marketing Manager Bill Hasenjaeger. "VERICUT 6.0 ties these complex processes together with the ability to simulate multiple setups in a single simulation session."

VERICUT 6.0 also includes enhanced collision checking that monitors spindle states for milling and turning simulation, enabling VERICUT to catch common programming errors with spindle and cutting tool usage. Additionally, significantly enhanced simulation of complex cutting tool shapes commonly used in production processes shows the NC programmer or manufacturing engineer exactly what will happen when using the tool.

"The result of this work is a tightly unified environment for simulating complex mill/turn multi-function machining centers for production processes," said Hasenjaeger. VERICUT 6.0 leverages the results of simulating these complex processes with the ability to create inspection instructions, CNC inspection programs, and automated process documentation using the simulated workpiece. Because of VERICUT's accurate feature-rich in-process model of the simulated workpiece, the inspection and process documents utilize and accurately reflect the state of the workpiece at any stage of the process.

To ensure VERICUT's simulation is as accurate as possible, CGTech has partnered with many key machine tool builders, control manufactures and CAD/CAM companies. CGTech's Technology Partner Program establishes a cooperative working relationship with a goal of helping mutual manufacturing customers maximize their success and productivity.

"IMTS is a fantastic show for us because not only do we get a chance to meet with many current and future customers, we can meet with most of our partners under one roof. No other show is that productive," said Hasenjaeger.

You have finally come to the conclusion that you need or want a sewing machine. Now, what is on the market and how do you make the right decision?

There are many brands of machines out there and everyone boasts different features. Some machines appeal to quilters, others want you to embroider everything including the toilet seat and the shower curtain. Searching for the right machine is going to take some time.

Shopping for a new machine can make your head spin. The girls on my boards discuss which machine is best every time someone needs a new one. We all know the name brands but I am not going to suggest one, that decision is yours. It’s a personal one and an important one. I will, however give you a few basic questions you should ask yourself.

1. What type of sewing do you plan to do?
- clothing
- crafts
- repairs and alterations
- home decorating

2. Where will you sew?

- sewing room
- kitchen table
- integrated into other family living area

3. How will your machine be stored?
- in its own cabinet
- in a closet hiding behind the coats
- leave it out to sew every spare moment

4. Consider your budget and buying habits? How long will you keep this machine?
- 6 months
- a few years
- forever and a day

When you answer these questions, you are on your way to making the right decision. Obviously if you are going to sew from the kitchen table, you don’t want a machine with lots of accessories or add-ons that will take up too much room. If you are doing repairs and alterations, you don’t want a machine that duplicates the quilting stitch. If you have small children around, your machine needs to be tucked away safely. Just a few things to think about.

Research is the name of the game here. Check out the latest consumer reports. Visit the forum discussions on sew-whats-new.com and see what the girls are using. They will gladly tell you what works and what doesn’t. Another source is the well known sewing magazines. Sew News and Threads do comparison studies all the time.

If you are lucky enough to have local dealers, pay them all a visit. Test drive all their machines and ask lots and lots of questions. Take fabric with you that you use and test out things like stitch length, reverse and some of the different presser feet. Find out about lessons. Lots of dealers will give you a few free lessons to get you acquainted with your machine. Above all, take your time. I cannot stress this enough. Don’t let anyone rush you thru the process. Leave the kids at home so you have no distractions. While you are in the shop asking questions, you can see how the staff relate to customers and if they have the answers to all your questions. If they seem impatient or brusque, imagine how they might be after the sale. If they are not helpful now at the prospect of a sale, they probably won’t be later if you need help.

On the other hand, a strong sales pitch can also steer you in the wrong direction. Paying for a top of the line model doesn’t mean you are getting the machine you will be happiest with. You must resist the urge for that impulse buy. Go home and talk to someone who sews. Find out their experiences and listen to what they have to say. Again, take your time with this decision.

If you have visited all the dealers, and test driven their machines visit them all again. Visit again when you are rested and can make a clear decision. Go back and take a second look at those machines. You are looking at them with new eyes now. Maybe there are a few things you never noticed the first time that stand out now. What about that foot pedal, is it comfortable? Do you want the even feed feature? Does the machine run smoothly and quietly? Are there more programmes than you will ever use? If so, make a mental note and you can scale down your possible choices. This second visit will tell you more than you expect.

Ask about the warranty that comes with each machine. Be sure you know who is responsible for standing behind it, your dealer or the manufacturer. Are repairs made locally or will you have to pack everything up and send it away.

Be very sure you understand what is included with the sewing machine. Which feet, how many bobbins and what about a manual. The manual is very important. You will refer to the manual time after time so it should be a good reference guide to all the accessories and stitch designs along with any other functions. The manual should be full of pictures and diagrams for the basic sewing as well as clear directions. If your manual isn’t helpful, do you want to go searching out the answers every time you have a problem. I wish I had a penny for every time someone has emailed me with a problem that their manual doesn’t answer.

Be sure you get your sales agreement in writing and keep your copy in a safe place. Nothing less will do.

The bottom line is you must do some work before you ever sew your first stitch. If you make the effort and educate yourself, the rewards of a great sewing machine are yours.

CNC sheet metal investment raises capabilities

A sheet metal subcontractor, specialising in lower-volume, higher-specification work, has invested in a CNC laser cutting system, two press brakes and 3D offline programming software.

CNC sheet metal investment raises capabilities A sheet metal subcontractor, specialising in lower-volume, higher-specification work, has invested in a CNC laser cutting system, two press brakes and 3D offline programming software. Brian Palmer, managing director of Tharsus Engineering, has a clear vision of where the company’s future lies, and has just invested in LVD technology to give him the capacity to achieve it. ‘What we want to do is move up the knowledge ladder,’ he says.

‘We have actively tried to specialise in lower-volume, higher-specification work, because if you only quote on volume jobs you risk losing them abroad.

A good job for us is one where we can apply a bit of thought and make money by doing it intelligently.

There are still jobs where we are quoting against drawing, but more and more we are doing the design, making the prototypes and taking it into production.’ The new LVD equipment supplied to Tharsus includes a CNC laser cutting system, two press brakes and CADMAN B 3D offline programming software.

The whole package has been selected to complement existing capabilities, including Radan offline programming software, so that the company has the best possible range of equipment to do the type of work that it wants to target.

According to Palmer, the fundamental reason for buying the laser was that the company’s two punch presses were at saturation point and he needed additional capacity.

‘The laser opens new markets to us and gives us new capability, but it is our job to make sure that we put profitable work on it.

There is a temptation to go and fill up its capacity, but we need to be intelligent and put the work on it that is going to give us the margins.

We are unlikely to have a competitive advantage over a specialist laser shop, for example.

One of the skills we are going to have to develop is routeing jobs intelligently.

There are lot of advantages to having a laser, and it was the one bit of capability that the business didn’t have.

So we knew we wanted a laser and what clinched it for LVD was the Axel’s cost-to-performance ratio.’ The two new press brakes at Tharsus have also been chosen to fill in the gaps in existing capability.

The company already has a press brake with a pressure referencing bend compensation system, but LVD’s Easy Form Laser system offers a number of advantages on certain types of part.

‘The pressure referencing system needs to be operating at 10% of maximum tonnage, but on many of the smaller and thinner parts that Tharsus forms, the bending force may be measured in hundreds of kilos rather than tonnes,’ says Palmer.

‘As with the Axel, the Easy Form Laser press brake complements our existing capacity and offers us advantages in certain areas.

If we are intelligent in the way we use the machines we’ve now got all the bases covered.’ Palmer says: ‘We need this type of system because we are programming offline using the CADMAN B 3D and Radan software and we want to deskill the forming.

Offline programming means that instead of the machines standing idle while someone is doing the programming you can send the program down the wire to the machine.

The operator does not have to know how to program or work out how to produce a complex part, and the Easy Form Laser means that angle correction, which is one of the more skilled elements of press braking, is essentially automated too.’ The final piece in the ‘jigsaw’ is LVD’s recently launched PPRM.

This is a fast, compact machine that takes advantage of reluctance motor technology first developed for the textile industry to achieve far higher bending speeds than conventional hydraulic machines.

It can deliver working speeds of up to 25mm/s and is ideal for bending small- to medium-sized high-precision parts.

Palmer says that before Tharsus had the PPRM the bigger machines were often only bending at a fraction of their capacity - using only a small part of the bed length and tonnage available.

‘A lot of the time we were using 100 tonf (1000kN) , 3m bed length machines to form parts that only required hundreds of kilos of bend force, which meant they were not operating anywhere near as quickly as they could have been.

The PPRM frees up the bigger machines to do what they do best, and it is a faster, more intelligent use of capability.

The PPRM is a light machine - you can move it round with a forklift, it has a very small footprint and the tooling is compatible with our other machines.

It is the highest specification machine of its size on the market.’ * About LVD Strippit - The LVD Strippit Group designs, manufactures and distributes a comprehensive range of sheet metal/plate working equipment, including laser cutting systems, turret punch presses, press brakes, guillotines and automated flexible manufacturing systems - all supported by its CADMAN PC-based, Windows compatible programming system for punching, laser cutting and bending.

The Model MS22C from Index Corp, introduced at IMTS 2006 in September, is the latest addition to the company's line of CNC multispindle machines. A fully CNC multispindle for turning and milling small workpieces from bar as large as 22-mm diam, the machine has six fully independent CNC spindles, each capable of speeds to 10,000 rpm.

Developed for the medium-complex workpiece market, which Index says has until now been dominated by cam-controlled multispindle automatics and simple sliding and fixed-headstock automatics, the machine is designed for production of precision parts with different features in one single-step operation.

Supplied as a modular system, the machine can be equipped with up to 62 axes, 12 CNC compound slides, and Y axes, plus an optional two synchronous spindles and six tools for backworking, four of which may be live tools. In every spindle position, a C, X, and Z axis is available. Backworking can also be done using three fixed tools.

Its open-front work area allows more than one tool on each of the CNC compound (X, Y, Z) slides to be engaged at once, and also provides a freely accessible work area and unrestricted chip flow.

The V-shaped arrangement of the tool carrier in every spindle position means that only the toolholder determines the type of machining, so external and internal machining can be done with fixed or driven tools at every station. Furthermore, the machine can also be configured as a double three-spindle machine. The C axis, available in all spindle positions, allows the complete machining of complex workpieces in short cycles. With the available Y axis, eccentric machining can also be performed.

The modular design permits building the machine with options that fit a wide range of requirements including polygon turning/milling/drilling/gear hobbing. A bar loader or stock reel can be used with the unit.

The machine employs the same multispindle technology seen on the rest of the Index machine range. The multispindle's centerpiece is the spindle drum, with six spindles driven by individual air-cooled AC motors. A three-ring face-tooth coupling mechanism locks the spindle drum into the headstock.

All six backworking tools, located between the cut-off position and the exit conveyor, can either be fixed or live (driven). The kinematic motion drive for the spindle automatically includes the Y axis, so that off-center features can be machined on the cutoff side of the workpiece in conjunction with the C axis on the pickup spindle. This new design allows very quick cycle times-around 2 sec, depending on the workpiece.

Olaf Tessarzyk, president and CEO of Index Corp., says the MS22C allows machine shops to transition into the company's MS CNC technology at a cost typical of a cam machine with CNC slides.

The MS22C is part of a full line of CNC multispindle machines, all based on the same design concept. The other models include the counter-spindle versions MS32P and MS42, which allow machining of longer and more complex parts, and the MS32G and MS52G with six additional opposed spindles for the most complex parts, which require extensive backworking.
