Lathe Turning Information, Wood Lathe Information, and Metal Lathe Information Released

 

Lathes have been around for years and Lathe turning is very popular. Hence the reason why Ivan has just introduced a new Lathe Turning webpage with everything a user needs to know on Lathe Turning. The new Lathe Turning webpage is part of a new machining section that not only has Lathe Turning information, but also Machining, Milling, and Tooling information. This new Lathe Turning webpage can be found at: Lathe Turning
 
Here is a glimpse of some of the information that Ivan has added to the Lathe Turning webpage that is found at: Lathe Information
 
Ivan states, “A lathe is a type of machine that produces cylindrical part. It makes parts like shafts and columns. You load it with "Stock" before you begin. A lathe spins the stock and a tool takes off material or machines it. When it is done you have a part that is built to certain specifications. There are a number of different types of lathes. There are wood lathes, metal lathes and CNC Lathes, which can be for wood or metal. Lathes have been around since the Industrial Revolution. They were the original machines of production. The first ones were water powered. “ Ivan has also added some very good lathe articles from various sources in the lathing community. These articles are on topics such as Lathe Accuracy, Inverted Lathe, Twin Spindle Lathe, Lathe Chuck, Lathe History, and much more. Find the webpage at: Lathe Turning in order to see for yourself all of the information Ivan has added on Lathe Turning.

Wire EDM Information Now Available on Special Wire EDM General Info Webpage

 

If you have ever wondered about Wire EDM and how it relates to Computer Numerical Control, wonder now more. Ivan Irons has just released a specialized Wire EDM webpage that has all of the latest and greatest information on Wire EDM. This new Wire EDM webpage is one of the last pages to be added by Ivan Irons under his Computer Numerically Controlled Machines Section. Some other Computer Numerically Controlled machines that are in this section along with Wire EDM are CNC Plasma Cutters, CNC Foam Cutters, CNC Routers, CNC Lathes, and CNC Mini Mills. Wire EDM has not joined some of these well known machines in Computer Numerically Controlled machines and its specific and dedicated webpage and be located at the following web link: Wire EDM
 
Wire EDM has become a hot topic in Computer Numerical Control, which is why Ivan Irons is bringing you the most up to date information on Wire EDM machines. Some who are very much involved in Computer Numerical Control may not even know what Wire EDM stands for. Ivan, thankfully, starts with the basics and explains to his users what Wire EDM stands for. Wire EDM stands for Electrical Discharge Machine. Although Wire EDM has a very small following in the world of Computer Numerical Control, there are some DIY CNC Hobbyist who have gone to their shops to build a Wire Electrical Discharge Machine. A user can read about them for free at Ivan’s website: Wire EDM

 

CNC Mill and CNC Milling Machine Information Just Released on CNC Information Website

 

CNC Milling Basics has just been released on its own CNC Mill webpage on Ivan Irons’ CNC website. All of the information you need to know on CNC Mills, CNC Milling Machines, and CNC Miller is in one spot on Ivan’s webpage. Ivan’s CNC Mill webpage is one in his new trend of having a webpage dedicated to each type of Computer Numerically Controlled Machine that is out on the market today. Ivan has already released pages on Computer Numerically Controlled Machines such as CNC Plasma Cutters, CNC Mini Mills, CNC Foam Cutters, CNC Water Jets, CNC Lathes, and CNC Woodworking. Today he announces the release of his new webpage that is dedicated to CNC Mills. This page can be viewed by those wanting to know the latest and greatest information on CNC Mills at the following web address: CNC Mill
 

On this Computer Numerically Controlled Mill webpage, Ivan talks about the various types of Computer Numerically Controlled Milling Machines. He spends some time talking about Horizontal Spindle Milling Machines and the reasons for having a horizontal spindle-milling machine. He also goes on to talk about the more popular vertical spindle-milling machine. A user can gather much more information on CNC Mills whether they are vertical or horizontal at the following webpage: CNC Mill

CNC Lathe Basics and CNC Turning Information now Release on Ivan Iron’s Website

 

CNC Lathe Information has earned its own dedicated webpage on Ivan’s CNC Information website. Here a user can find CNC Turning information, CNC Lathe Information, and CNC Lathe Articles so all CNC Lathe information is in one location on Ivan’s site. Ivan has created a section on his Computer Numerical Control Info website that is solely for the purpose of talking about all of the different Computer Numerically Controlled Machines on the market today. Some of the different machines that Ivan discusses in this section on CNC Machines are Plasma Cutters, Foam Cutters, Tube Benders, and yes Computer Numerically Controlled Lathes. You can reach the CNC Lathe page directly and start learning about the difference between Lathes that are worked by hand, and Lathes that are controlled by Computer Numerical Control. You can get to the webpage by clicking on this CNC Lathe link: CNC Lathe

What do Computer Numerically Controlled Lathe machines do? Ivan addresses this on his webpage by talking about the uses for CNC Lathes. Computer Numerically Controlled Lathes turn stock to remove the material.  Most parts coming off a CNC Lathe will be cylindrical and symmetrical. Visit the website for more info on this: CNC Lathe Turning

Ellison Technologies to Represent Kitako

NewswireToday – /newswire/ – Warrenville, IL, United States, 02/11/2008 – Ellison Technologies is a provider of advanced machining solutions to North American metal-cutting manufacturers and their global affiliates.

   
 

By contributing with technological solutions that strengthen their customers’ ability to compete locally and globally, Ellison Technologies is committed to the survival and progress of American Manufacturing. The company announced today that it will become the exclusive distributor for Kitako in Northern and Central Illinois. Ellison Technologies has been serving Illinois manufacturers since 1981, and the most recent addition to the product offering solidifies its place as the top choice for machine tool distributors in this market.

Whether the solution involves a stand alone machine, multi-process equipment, or an integrated manufacturing system with robotic automation, Ellison’s goal remains the same; to optimize throughput and quality at the lowest per-part manufacturing cost.

Kitako Corporation, based in Hiroshima, Japan, produces high production CNC lathes. Kitako four-spindle vertical and horizontal CNC lathes allow for machining on two spindles while parts are loaded and unloaded on the other two spindles. All four spindles are on a large carrier that indexes in less than 2 seconds. This virtually eliminates part loading time. Manufacturers can triple their production by using high speed, bi-directional indexing for productivity without sacrificing flexibility.

This partnership brings Illinois manufacturers the superior machining capabilities of Kitako and the very strong application engineering, service and automation capabilities of Ellison Technologies.
