Advantages & Applications of 13-Axis Swiss Screw Machining
Swiss screw machining elevates the precision component manufacturing process with up to 13 axes, allowing endless possibilities. Using Swiss-type lathes with a turning center, Swiss screw machining first emerged in the Swiss watchmaking industry in the late nineteenth century. Later, Swiss screw machines evolved to become sophisticated enough to produce complex, high-precision components for today’s […]
What is the Difference Between Wire and Ram EDM?
While the early concept of electrical discharge machining (EDM) dates back to the 18th century, modern EDM began in the 1960s with the emergence of the first wire electrode machines. Since then, EDM technologies have continually evolved to allow skilled craftspeople to machine precise and complex shapes that would otherwise be difficult to produce with […]
How 5-Axis CNC Machining Can Produce More Powerful Race Engines
When 23-year-old rookie Austin Cindric ran a thrilling race to win the 2022 Daytona 500 in a wild finish, he debuted the new, highly anticipated NASCAR Next Gen race car. While the engine features the same pushrod V8 engines as outgoing NASCAR cars, one critical aspect changed: power. After a chorus of calls for more […]
