Automotive supplier Faurecia (Nanterre, France) decided it needed to get serious about Industry 4.0 fast.

PLM strategies move manufacturers ahead with improved simulations in the Digital Thread and the latest Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) applications

When sizing up an application for a milling toolholder, it is necessary to consider the materials being machined, how aggressively metal is going to be removed, and any machining conditions that are likely to present a challenge to tooling security. By now, the pros and cons of hydraulic, mechanical, and heat-assisted shrink-fit systems are well known and results well documented.

A lot of attention is paid to the “business end” of CNC toolholders–the part that actually holds the tool.

Machine manufacturers are working to streamline the gear-making process, to deliver a more highly finished gear in fewer steps.
