In micro-machining operations with zero visibility of workpiece and cutting tool, Seco reports the JM100 Mini delivers longer tool life, stability and guaranteed surface quality thanks to its extremely precise geometries, virtually zero runout, advanced coatings and tight radius tolerances. Targeted to achieve precise surface finishes on mold and die components and able to machine tool steel as hard as 48-65 Rc, the JM100 Mini helps shops minimize secondary benchwork that can increase part processing time. It also ensures smooth and consistent surface finishes. The company reports that tight radius tolerances of ±0.005μ on the tool reduce runout virtually to zero. The JM100 Mini is available in tool diameters from 0.008” to 0.118”, corner radii ranging from 0.002” to 0.012” RE = ±0.005 and overhang lengths from 1.5* DC to 20* DC, with two and three-flute versions New Double-Column Bridge Design 5-Axis Machine- —Hurco The Hurco BX40Ui 5-Axis CNC double-column machining center, with trunnion table mounted along the Y- axis and ladder structure and double- column design provides extreme rigid- ity and outstanding support to the head casting. With an 18k motorized spindle and oversized linear guide rollers, the BX40Ui is perfect for a wide range of applications. Additionally, the bridge structure is isolated from part weight and operates in a stable and predictable manner. Exceptional cutting feed rates are achieved with patented high-speed motion technology called UltiMotion that simultaneously reduces cycle times by up to 30% or more and deliv- ers outstanding surface finish quality. The BX40Ui differs from other bridge-type 5-Axis CNC machines due to the integrated Hurco control powered by WinMax® control soft- ware and UltiMotion®. The control supports multiple programming methods: conversational for 5-sided
