spindle. SideWinder vises expand the capabilities for 6 or 8" vises by adding vertical clamping above and behind the host vise and provide easy spindle access for secondary or fi nal machining operations. Designed to reduce setup time for secondary operations, SideWinder vises set up easily and
precise cutting data. This app also helps operators fi ne- tune optimal cutting parameters tool assemblies. Users can save tool adjustment history in the app for future reference, offering an essential piece of the puzzle for shops joining the smart manufacturing movement. BIG Kaiser Precision Tooling Inc.

HMC for Large, Heavy Part Production The a120nx horizontal machining center, the largest ma- chining platform within the nx-series to date, is designed for machining oversized structural components for industrial equipment, diesel engines and semicon- ductor manu- facturing. Like other nx-series machines, the a120nx offers three-point leveling and tiered
column design. The machine features X, Y and Z-axis travels of 74.8, 63 and 66.9" (1900, 1600 and 1700 mm), and its standard large pallet size of 39.4 × 39.4" (1 × 1 m) provides capacity for parts weighing up to 11,000 lb (4990 kg). The a120nx’s automatic pallet changer switches from one pallet to the next in 38 seconds, minimizing non-cut times. Makino Inc.

Vises Enhance Production Machining and Secondary Ops SideWinder vises mount to the back of 6 or 8" (152.4 or 203.2-mm) Kurt vises and provide vertical workholding without interfering with an existing host vise or the machine
can be left attached to the host vise and won’t interfere with other machining setups in the host vise. Kurt Manufacturing Co. Ph: 877-226-7823 Web site:

High-Performance Circular Cold Saws VA-L 500 sawing system is designed specifi cally for produc- tion cutting of aluminum alloys and other nonferrous materi- als in solids, thin-walled pipe, and profi les. The VA-L 500 saw is equipped with a 32-hp (23-kW) frequency- controlled drive motor with 800–3400- rpm speed range and a servo-driven downfeed with an adjustable rate. The fully automatic circular cold saw has a cutting range of 6.0" (152 mm) for round materials or 6 × 6" (152 × 152 mm) for square materials at 90° using a carbide-tipped circular saw blade with a diameter of 19.6" (500 mm). An automatic blade/material separation feature guarantees a free return of the saw blade, reducing blade and material damage. A Lift-and-Shift device ensures mate- rial is lifted slightly over the material support table and freely fed without touching the table and clamping jaws. Behringer Saws Inc.
