MILLING TOOL HEAD ASSEMBLIES, REMOTE CONTROL SYSTEMS, AND PORTABLE MACHINE TOOLS INCLUDING THE SAME
Milling tool head assemblies, remote control systems, and portable machine tools including the same. A milling tool head assembly comprises a milling tool head carriage, a milling tool head with a milling tool head base pivotally coupled to the milling tool head carriage, and a milling tool carrier operatively coupled to a cutting tool. The milling tool carrier is configured to travel along a primary tool path, and the milling tool carrier is slidingly coupled to the milling tool head base to define a secondary tool path of the milling tool carrier. In some examples, a portable machine tool comprises a machine frame, a rotating ring, a bridge, a facing tool head assembly, and a milling tool head assembly. In some examples, a remote control system for a portable machine tool comprises an operator pendant, a control tether, a pneumatic conditioning unit, and an auxiliary conditioning unit.

DEBRIS CONTROL APPARATUS FOR CUTTING MACHINES
A debris control apparatus is provided for selective assembly and disassembly with a cutting tool. The debris control apparatus includes a debris control enclosure and a mounting assembly for mounting the enclosure to the cutting tool. The enclosure comprises a vacuum opening assembled and in fluid communication with a vacuum conduit, the vacuum conduit connected to a vacuum source, for extracting the debris from the enclosure. The enclosure and vacuum conduit may be sized, shaped, and contoured to reduce recirculation of debris within the enclosure.

Outer rotor motor direct-drive drilling or milling machine
An outer rotor motor direct-drive drilling or milling machine, including a machine base, a frame, a mechanical driving component and an electrical control box, component. The frame is installed on the machine base, a mechanical transmission box component is installed on the frame, the electrical control box component is located on the top of the frame. A mechanical driving component includes an mechanical execution component and a lifting mechanism, the mechanical execution component is composed of a hollow shaft outer rotor motor and an output shaft assembly. The output shaft of the output shaft assembly and the hollow shaft of the outer rotor motor are fitted in the form of a key or a spline. This form of cooperation chooses the fit forms that can transmit the speed and torque of the motor and can move the output shaft axially.
Converting a CNC milling machine to a CNC wire saw
An attachment for converting a CNC milling machine to a CNC wire saw machine. The attachment may include a gantry that may be coupled with a respective gantry of the CNC milling machine, a carriage that may be attached to and moveable with a respective carriage of the CNC milling machine. A drive pulley of the system may be coupled with and driven by a spindle of the CNC milling machine. The drive pully may drive a wire saw through an assembly of idler pulleys. A wire tension mechanism may keep the wire fully stretched. The wire tension mechanism may include a curved guide rail mounted on the gantry and a vertical guide rail mounted on the carriage. A slider that slides vertically on the vertical guide rail and follows the curved guide rail may house a tension wheel that may keep the wire at a fully stretched state.
5-axis processing machine
A 5-axis processing machine includes a mounting table on which a tool and a work piece are placed; and a control unit including a calculation unit, a determination unit, and a correction unit; wherein the mounting table is moved relatively by three linear axes and two rotation axes based on NC data, the two rotation axes include a first axis and a second axis, the calculation unit calculates an orientation of the work piece with respect to the tool at a time of processing from NC data and a directions of rotation centers of an actual first axis and an actual second axis, the determination unit determines whether or not the calculated orientation of the work piece is included in an inoperable range, the inoperable range being the inoperable angle range, and the correction unit corrects the orientation of the work piece with respect to the tool.
Debris control apparatus for cutting machines
A debris control apparatus comprising a debris control enclosure, the enclosure further comprising a vacuum opening in the enclosure. The vacuum opening being sized, shaped and positioned to receiving a vacuum conduit, connected to a vacuum source, for extracting the debris from the enclosure. The debris control apparatus further comprising a mounting assembly for mounting the enclosure to a machine, such that, during operation, the enclosure moves along the work material as the cutting tool moves along the work material, the enclosure being mounted independent of movement of the cutting tool in and out of the work material. The mounting assembly comprises a depth adjuster for adjusting the operating depth of the enclosure. The depth of the enclosure can be adjusted such that the debris will be contained in the enclosure during operation.
