lot of development aimed at blisk machining, especially for the new jet engine programs that are being developed to be 20% more fuel efficient. These new fuel efficiency engines will be used to re-engine the global fleet of 737s and Airbus 320s.” To meet this new generation of engine technology, new machine tool technologies are being developed to manufacture blisks with a much better surface finish and improved production rates. “Surface finish and high produc- tion rates have not historically gone together,” said Walker. “We’re focusing on technologies like direct drive-motor based machines that make the ma- chines very agile so they can drive a very thin tool around the blade profiles of IBRs and blisks and keep it bent the same as it goes through big changes in acceleration and deceleration. The goal is to eliminate markings and poor surface finish so that parts come off the machine ready for assembly without benching,” said Walker. At EMO Hannover, Mitsui Seiki will present its most recent developments for the European market, including the Vertex 550-5XB Blade Center, for the production of turbine blades; the large capacity HU100-5XL and HU100-5XLL five-axis trunnion horizontal machining centers for hard metal aerospace, power generation, refrigeration, mold and die, and off-road equipment applications; and the VGE60A universal vertical thread grinder.
Machine Evolution Continues for Heavy-Duty Cutting
Machine tool technology continues to evolve in ways that serve a broad range of industries in untended opera- tions. For applications that require large, complex parts like those found in the energy, automotive and general com- mercial markets, the new Feeler SDM-
