Citizen Live! at MACH 2024 with MTDCNC
At MACH 2024, Citizen Machinery UK will reaffirm its position not only as a leading supplier…
Swedish Iron – an engineer has compared to an Armadillo – Crunchy on the outside and soft in the middle.
Metaltech have been making a component for 15 years from Swedish Iron. Initially it was manufactured on a Fixed Head Lathe, then they moved to Sliding Head technology.
With the ongoing desire for efficiency and cost control they needed to find a new solution to ensure optimum production performance. Along cam Citizen Machinery UK and their new LFV technology.
A few points from the video;
– Swedish Iron is an extremely difficult material to work with
– The non-guide bush option means no grinding of the bar is required
– 30% cycle time reduction
– Improved cutting tool life
Just a few of the highlights from the video, watch, learn and enjoy
