Events to highlight tooling for aerospace industry
Events in April and May will highlight Kennametal tooling and Mazak machine tools at Mazak's Northeast Regional Technology Center in Windsor Locks, Connecticut.
The latest developments in multi-tasking machine tools and tooling will be showcased at the events, which are scheduled to take place on 13-14 April and on 25-26 May at the Mazak facility, located near Bradley International Airport.
Connecticut and the New England region are home to various engineering, research, design and manufacturing companies in the aerospace industry, including Pratt and Whitney, Sikorsky, Hamilton Sundstrand, General Electric, GKN Aerospace and a series of aerospace machine shops.
Francois Gau, director of global segment leadership at Kennametal, will provide an overview of aerospace manufacturing issues at the April event.
Other Kennametal speakers will include Mark Huston, vice-president of research, development and engineering, who will discuss custom products; Alexander Momm, global product manager, who will talk about turning tool developments; and John Riordan, product manager, who will provide an overview of new milling products.
'There will be demos for milling, turning and hole making as well as news on the latest geometries, coatings and material advances for achieving higher productivity in titanium, nickel alloys and other advanced work materials,' said John Feehan, regional key account manager at Kennametal.
Mazak will showcase the latest in multi-tasking CNC machine tools for aerospace component manufacturers, including its new Quick Turn Smart machines for aluminium machining, offering enough rigidity for heavy-duty steel machining.
'We'll also have at least seven multi-tasking machine tools under power at the event, demonstrating machining aerospace parts,' said Steve Wilkins, Mazak's general manager.
Among these will be the Integrex 2004S, featuring Kennametal KM quick-change tooling; the VCN 510C vertical machining centre with pallet changer; and the E-420HST horizontal multi-tasking machining centre.
Richard Aboulafia, vice-president of analysis for the Teal Group, will provide the keynote address at the May event.
