Technology Tuesday: All about Aluminum

Cruise through this week’s Technology Tuesday slideshow to brush up on your knowledge of aluminum, its benefits, the challenges it poses for moldmaking and strategies for overcoming those challenges.

SLIDESHOW: Technology Tuesday, Technology in Action

This week, instead of a showcase of static product information, I thought I'd share some videos demonstrating technology in action that MMT has covered.

Amerimold 2017: Multitudes of Metalworking Materials and Machines

Amerimold proved once again that it is THE event for moldmaking.

SLIDESHOW: Technology Showcase, Amerimold Product Showcase (4)

Here at MMT, the excitement is building and we’re putting finishing touches on all things moldmaking so that attendees will get the most out of every aspect.

What’s All the Chatter about Aluminum?

Special cutter geometries can virtually eliminate vibration in machining of aluminum molds.

Tooling Up for Challenging Cuts

To maximize quality and repeatability, you need the right cutting tools, especially in challenging applications. Here’s a guide for selecting tools for high-speed tool paths, tight areas, straight walls and graphite cutting.

Choosing the Right Cutting Tool for Pre-Hard Materials

There are four common tool types to consider for cutting pre-hard materials: ball-end, toroidal, multi-fluted bull-nose and square-end.

Apply Your Moldmaking Know-How to Aerospace Work

If you are looking to diversify the jobs you machine and venture into the aerospace market many of the toolpaths and cutting techniques can be used with some modifications.

Advanced Toolpaths Improve Cutter Performance in Difficult Materials

Trochoidal toolpaths are available on most CAD/CAM systems, yet are rarely used or even known. By using trochoidal toolpaths and hybrid trochoidal toolpaths you can successfully machine exotic materials.

Market Looks Razor Sharp

Great strides continue to be made in the cutting tool/toolholder market that result in reduced benchtime and additional handwork, as well as heavier depths-of-cut—adding up to increased productivity and higher accuracy.
