Sustainable manufacturing

Kyocera (Stand F12/G11, Hall 2) is exhibiting various new cutting tools for industrial machining, including the MFH Boost for high-feed milling up to 2.5 mm maximum depth of cut, new PCD tools for the electric vehicle market and new aerospace solutions. In view of a rapidly changing world and new challenges, Kyocera is expanding its portfolio of tools with an even more economic and sustainable approach. Thanks to new coating technologies, users can prolong tool life, while newly developed hybrid substrates, like latest cermet grades, can reduce the usage of carbide.

Panel bender

Salvagnini (Stand E07, Hall 5) will show its P2-2120 panel bender featuring the new CUT option to sequentially cut one or more profiles starting from a single notched sheet with different lengths. The new CUT option includes: a CUT blade, which lies on top of the lower bending blade of the P2 to make the separation cut of the bent profile; a cutting tool with a fixed composition that acts as the upper cutting blade; and a conveyor that transfers the cut part to the automatic shutter for manual extraction. Parts are made in multiples as they are associated on the same strip of material, which is bent and cut in a single process. This optimisation helps to increase overall process efficiency. In terms of feasibility, the CUT tool is advantageous for parts that are too small or too narrow for bending on a press brake.
