Sandvik Coromant Announces Technologic Event Focusing on Difficult-to-Machine Materials


August 16, 2010 - Sandvik Coromant has announced that it will be holding a Technologic event focused on machining processes for applications with difficult-to-machine materials. The event will take place on October 27, 2010 at the Sandvik Coromant Productivity Center in Schaumburg, Illinois and feature a variety of sessions from 9:00 am to 6:00 pm.

The morning portion of Technologic will focus on machining techniques for applications in heat resistant super alloys, titanium, composites, cobalt chrome and hardened steels. Three afternoon presentations will cover innovations in PCBN tooling, the financial impact of productivity improvements and Sandvik Coromant's 2010 product introductions. Each of these presentations will be offered at 1:00 pm, 2:30 pm and 4:00 pm, to provide attendees with the flexibility to easily attend any or all of them.

"We have been holding Technologic events for a year now and the feedback has been tremendous," says John Israelsson, president of Sandvik Coromant. "The technical material presented through these events supercedes any individual products and gets to the heart of processes that can help American manufacturers further enhance their competitive advantages. By working together with partners throughout the industry, we're able to bring together a powerful base of expertise and put it at a manufacturer's fingertips."

Technologic will showcase cutting demonstrations on equipment from DMG, Haas, Mazak, Mori Seiki and Okuma. Additionally the Productivity Center's Smart Hub will be manned by cutting tool experts all day, who will be available to answer questions and offer advice on attendees' most demanding applications.
