All of Spargo’s contracted jobs have some element requiring critical precision. An aluminum tube part,for example, has to be held to within ± 0.0005 inch on the approximate 1-inch length. Competing globally,however, also requires speed. Randy has applied new Swiss-type technology to cut the cycle time on that part in half.

The new Tsugami SS 32 offers 32 mm capacity. Like its predecessor, the SS20, the SS32 also offers users a unique modular tool zone, increased capability over previous gang type models, and a roomier tool zone for easier setup.
Tool modularity is a leading edge strategy with new Swiss technology. As shorter runs pervade, machine operators need to change part runs quickly. Sometimes the parts are vastly different from each other, requiring completely different tool setups. The SS-32’s standard main spindle configuration includes seven turning tools, five cross rotary tools, and five ID tools, while the standard sub spindle setup includes four ID stations, two face drills and two cross rotary tools. Quick changes to the configuration of main and sub spindle cross rotary, ID, and turning tools can be made, allowing for efficient machining of a greater variety of parts. Thread whirling, polygon turning and angular face drilling operations are possible with an adjustable face tool attachment.
In addition to these attributes, the SS 32 comes with CAD/CAM software, which makes it easy to set up and operate.

Transitioning from an OEM to a contract shop spurred the need for a more agile environment at Tier One. The employees were used to making the same products using the same fixtures, the same tools, the same computer programs, and the same machines.

Rem Sales Recent News:
Tsugami and Tornos Remain Independent Organizations in North America
Tornos’ headquarters in Switzerland released an announcement on February 15, 2008 stating that Tornos and Tsugami have forged an alliance. Bradley Morris, President of Rem Sales, the exclusive North American importer of Tsugami machine tools since 1978, clarified that announcement today. He said the partnership agreement primarily affects Europe and Asia. “Basically there are two steps to the agreement. In the first contract, Tsugami is building an entry-level, single spindle machine in China for Tornos to sell in Europe and Asia. In the second, Tsugami is distributing Tornos multispindle machines in Asia. Here in North America, Rem Sales will continue to exclusively sell and support Tsugami machines. The two companies and their sales and support networks remain independent.”

New high-pressure coolant pumps for turning, milling, grinding applications
New high-pressure coolant pumps, the “MP-R” series, use the proven Hydra-Cell® diaphragm pump. This patented, hydraulically balanced design from Wanner Engineering reduces maintenance costs because there are no packings, cups, or seals. This rugged, fixed or variable pump is built to handle the abrasive particles found in machine tool coolant that can wear out conventional centrifugal, screw, or piston pumps.
