PRI 2017 Show Highlights

3/13/2018

0 Comments

 
by Bernard Martin

At the 2017 Performance Racing Industry show held in Indianapolis,IN we where very excited to tool up the new Centroid A590 Engine Shop CNC Machine. Our end mills where also used in the Palmgren booth on a manual milling machine and we met some great customers and exhibitors at the show who told us about their experiences using Destiny end mills.  Theres a complete video below of many of the highlights from the show.
We where able to connect with the folks from Centroid in Howard, PA to provide some tooling for their new Centroid A590 Engine Show CNC Machine.

A complete turn-key system, the A590 Machining Center overcomes many limitations of other cnc porting machines with its unique and patented technology. With Centorid's advanced technology you can machine cylinder heads and engine blocks to incredible tolerances while maintaining amazing surface finishes all with one machine.

Centroid's CNC articulating head was designed specifically for CNC Cylinder head porting. Made in the USA of rigid cast iron the A590’s B axis rotates 90 degrees in each direction for a full 180 degrees of movement of the tilting B axis spindle head/

Video Highlights:
  • ​Check out our interview with Mike Stevens from Centroid talking about the new A590 using a 5/8" diameter Destiny Tool Diamond Back at 11,000 RPM, 240 IPM, .060" radial, and .500" axial.
  • Jeremy Harshman, at 17 year old high school senior updated us on what he's been doing since we met him last year at PRI when his father bought him his first CNC Mill. He shows us an intake elbow for a Terminator Mustang all made with Destiny End mills. You can following him on instagram @motivperformanceengineering
  • Rob Stock was kind enough to send us some of his parts made with Destiny End Mills for display inner booth. You can check him out on instagram @stock_design
  • Dean visited us lat year at PRI and was just getting his new Haas VF5 CNC milling machine. He updates us on what he's been up to in the past 12 months since we last met and they finishes he getting with our end mills.
  • There a close up up hyperlaspse in the video of the Destiny Raptor 3/6 end mills for those who have been asking for that 360 degree view.
  • Alec Darling from J Squared swung by our booth. J Squared had their own booth just down the aisle from us. Alec overheard some of our conversation and made some great comments that we just had to get him on video saying. J Squared started 35 years ago and made quite a name for themselves by manufacturing high-quality, affordable tubing benders and notchers  and now plasma cutting tables. You can follow them on instagram @jsquaredinc
  • The Pitt SAE Race team who we sponsor was kind enough to assist us in the booth for set up and break down. You can follow Panther Racing @PittFSAE

We met 16 year old Jeremy Harshman at the PRI show in 2016 and his father bought him a Fadal CNC machine during the show.  He's a young man with lots of talent.  We look forward to see much more from him in the future.

Here's a quick video of a roughing operation he recently did with one of our end mills. He's  running at 4000 RPM, 100 IPM with a .05" radial depth and .75" axial deep cut W

​This is just his second time using a Destiny Tool, I'm very happy with it's performance. According to Jeremy, "With a little fine tuning, we should be able to ramp up the feed rate much more!"

This was done on a T&S machines TS 100.
Below is another video of Jeramy when he was just 14 years old!  It great to see younger people coming into our industry!

Good concentricity with the heat shrink tool. Speeds and Feeds appear reasonable.  But keep in mind that everything from speeds, feeds, the workholding, and yes, even turning on the coolant can have a big impact on your tool life! 

Stay Cool!

Diamond Back End Mill 3+2 roughing on a Matsuura MX850 at IMTS 2016 

11/28/2016

0 Comments

 
All the tools running on the Matsuura MX850 5 axis VMC at the IMTS 2016 show where using Destiny Tool End Mills.
We stopped over to check on the tools during the show and spend some time with Tyler Bonde who tooled up the entire job.  

Tyler has been following us on Instagram for a while and he reached out to us to help show off the capabilities on the Matsuura MX850 5 axis VMC during the IMTS 2016 show. Give him a follow @tcb1228 on Instagram!

In the video, Tyler explains how he is using the Diamondback rougher that not only cuts down his cycle time, when compared to insert style end mills, but also how the tools generate a manageable chip size that doesn't clog op his chip augers.  We're planning on showing off the finished part at the PRI Trade Show (Performance Racing Industry) in December 2016.

IMTS 2016 Harry Moser explaining Reshoring for Small Contract Manufacturers

11/2/2016

0 Comments

 
PictureHarry Moser, Founder, Reshoring Initiative
Harry Moser from the Reshoring Initiative stopped by our IMTS 2016 booth to talk about the progress of reshoring manufacturing to North American shores.  
​
Reshoring is the practice of bringing manufacturing and services back to the U.S. from overseas. It’s a fast and efficient way to strengthen the U.S. economy because it helps balance the trade and budget deficits, reduces unemployment by creating good, well-paying manufacturing jobs, and fosters a skilled workforce. Reshoring also benefits manufacturing companies by reducing the total cost of their products, improving balance sheets, and making product innovations more effective. 

The Reshoring Initiative is focused on helping companies shift collective thinking from “offshoring is cheaper” to “local reduces the total cost of ownership.”

Harry explained how small contract manufacturing shops can use his Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) Calculator, for free, to convince their customers to keep the existing machining on our shores. He suggested asking your customers:
"Is there anything you are thinking about moving off shore, or better yet, is there anything you are getting from off-shore where you are having delivery issues, quality issues, intellectual property issues, travel, too much late night telephone calls, anything that is causing you pain,... and how can we take away the pain?"
We also talked about how small machine shops can innovate more as more machining business reshores. At Destiny Tool we believe that reshoring stimulates even more new innovation and, candidly, helps us innovate new products and solutions because of our customers feedback about machining.

Here's the video below. We hope you find it helpful in growing your business.

Harry Moser & The Reshoring Initiative

Picture
Harry Moser founded the Reshoring Initiative in 2010 to bring manufacturing jobs back to the U.S. Prior to the starting the Initiative, he held leadership positions at GF Machining Solutions, formerly known as GF AgieCharmilles, where he began in 1985 as the company’s president and retired in 2010 as Chairman Emeritus.

Harry's reshoring efforts have been widely recognized. In 2010, he was inducted into the Industry Week Manufacturing Hall of Fame and was named Quality Magazine’s Quality Professional of the year in 2012. 

Harry has actively participated in President Obama’s Insourcing Forum at the White House in January 2012. He also won The Economist debate in January 2013 on outsourcing and offshoring, and received the Manufacturing Leadership Council’s Industry Advocacy Award in 2014.

Brent Biestel from Byce Tool, introduced his new double station vise at the IMTS 2016 show at the Doosan booth.
​We met Brent at D&L Industrial Supply's Open House this past summer and told him about the Viper's and Diamondbacks. Later we found him on Instagram (@bycetoolworkholding) and it turns then found out out he started using Destiny End Mills to make his new workholding vise!

According to Brent, he's using a 5/8" Diamondback to remove roughly 20 CIM of material every 1/2 hour and the Diamondback has been running for 6 weeks in the cut!!! ...and it's still running.  Brent is also running Viper End Mills to make the aluminum jaws.  

Brent goes on to tell us about his new vise and many new features that's he's come up with. Check out the video below more.

The International Manufacturing Technology Show is one of the largest industrial trade shows in the world, featuring more than 2,000 exhibiting companies and 114,147 registrants. The event is held every two years in September at McCormick Place, Chicago. The 2016 Show runs from September 12 - 17.

Destiny Tool will be in Booth W-2092 which is located in the Tooling and Workholding Pavilion in the West Building of McCormick Place for IMTS 2016.

We've been reposting and sharing both Instagram postings and YouTube videos of your applications for some time and for IMTS 2016 we want to take it one step farther. For the 2016 IMTS show we would like to showcase the parts that you have made with our tools.  

From now until August 31, we will be accepting applications from shops to be part of our display at IMTS 2016.  We will feature a part made with our tools as well as an informational table tent that would include your shop's logo, City, State and/or Country as well as your website address so other attendees can take a look at your capabilities.  We would also need some specific cutting data as to which tools were used and how.  

​In the meantime, please be sure to use the #DestinyTool hashtag as well as the #IwannaBeOnIMTStv hashtag when posting our products.  The folks at IMTS 2016 have a competition going on to see where the most interesting products are located at the show and then do an interview in the booths that qualify.  This could be a great opportunity for us to talk about YOUR company and part applications!

4/4/2016

0 Comments

 
In the history of Destiny Tool we have not had a tool promotion.  This is the first.  

Here's how it started.
We've had such a wonderful following on Instagram, Facebook and YouTube of customers posting their success stories with our Viper End Mills in 6061, 7075, Brass, Bronze and Copper, making Aerospace  Defense, Racing components and medical products that we wanted to thank them ALL for their support with a special offer...

But then we started talking about it here at the factory...  

Then we talked to with several of our regional manager's and distributors and to some machine shops...  

Frankly, it just didn't seem fair to only offer some special pricing just to our loyal followers, 

"We should offer it to EVERYONE and EVERYONE should thank all of our loyal followers for making this promotion happen!"
So here's the deal.  Between now and June 30 2016, you can purchase 5 Destiny Viper 3 Flute End MIlls as a SET
  • 1 each V33220 - 1/2" diameter, 3 flute, 1-1/4" LOC, 3" OAL

  • 1 each V31608 - 1/4" diameter, 3 flute, 1/2" LOC, 2" OAL
  • 1 each V31210 - 3/16" diameter, 3 Flute 5/8" LOC, 2" OAL
  • 1 each V30805 - 1/8" diameter, 3 flute, 5/16" LOC, 1-1/2" OAL
You must use ORDER CODE: V3KIT5 for these items.

It's only $119 for the entire kit.  This promotion ends at midnight June 30, or at 12:01am on July depending on whom you talk to.
Picture
All we ask is one thing from you. Say Thank You to the people that made this promotion happen by picking one of the following:
  1. Follow the #DestinyTool hashtag on Instagram and thank some of the people who have posted video's and pictures of their Destiny Viper experiences, or
  2. Check out our Facebook page and the folks who have shared their Destiny Viper experiences and thank or LIKE their page!. A Lot of small business that can always use your support with a LIKE.
  3. Or you can visit our YouTube Channel; We've favorited many of our customer's video's so you can find them and give them some LIKE!

Give them a big thank you to each of them for making this special pricing promotion happen because we can't ever thank them enough for their continued loyalty and support!

the fine print:
  • THIS PROMOTION MUST BE ORDERED THROUGH YOUR LOCAL DISTRIBUTOR.  
  • NO DIRECT ORDERS WILL BE ACCEPTED AT DESTINY TOOL
