More Teeth and More Chips
With the Xtra·tec® XT M5130 shoulder milling cutters, Walter has developed a new generation of milling cutters to buck the trend. Instead of further reducing the clearance angle for the benefit of the cutting force, Walter is making it larger and instead rotating the position of the indexable insert. In turn, the stability and process reliability of the milling cutters is significantly improved – as well as handling and productivity. Click the image for more information.

Spyglass Visual Inspection Reduces Cost of Quality
In challenging defect detection situations machine vision systems often perform poorly, leading to over-tuning, too many false positive defect detections, and costly human reinspection.
Mariner’s Spyglass Visual Inspection solution uses Deep Learning to solve the false positive problem. It works with any camera system you have, and our data scientists will work with you to build an AI model that’s customized to your product.
