Whether on Swiss and other turn/mill centers, drilling and tapping machines, or with milling attachments, shops are doing more milling with small spindles than ever before. That’s partly due to the ...

Modern milling machines look much the same as they did 30 years ago. However, they now must cut superalloys, titanium, and high-tensile steels to closer tolerances and at faster rates than before. To ...

Balanced toolholder assemblies pay dividends in longer spindle and tool life and, especially, in greater metal removal rates at all cutting speeds. Photo courtesy Emuge Corp Modern milling machines ...

Modern machine tools continue to make technical advances, thanks in large part to ongoing improvements and fine-tuning in computer numerical control (CNC) machining. Over the past 60 years or so, CNC ...

If you’re interested in making things (and since you’re reading this, we’re going to assume you are), you’ve almost certainly felt a desire to make metal parts. 3D printers are great, but have a lot ...

Event is at the company’s Dallas Technical Center, March 11-12, 2026.

For his senior design project at Swarthmore College, [Julian] decided to build a metalworking equivalent to the RepRap. [Julian]’s final project is a self-replicating milling machine, and hopefully ...

Spindles are machinery subsystems that integrate shafts, bearings, and power-transmission components such as belts and ballscrews, motors, and in some cases, drives and controls to output axial ...
