The present invention is a rapid pill canister adapter production system which provides a machine which will accept as input the details of a certain pill or tablet, such as its shape, size, weight and the like and produce a part for use within the pill canister of an automatic pill dispenser to properly line up the pills for dispensing. Once designed and verified, the device would rapidly produce the part for immediate use by the pharmacy. This would enable pharmacies to install new medications into their automatic pill dispensers with very minimal delay.

Disclosed herein is a duplicator assembly for forming a first void, which can be layered, in a laminated material of a part that matches a second void in a scarf repair guide. The duplicator assembly comprises an arm that comprises a first end portion and a second end portion. The first end portion is spaced apart from the second end portion. The duplication assembly also comprises a probe that is fixed to the first end portion of the arm and configured to trace the second void in the scarf repair guide. The duplication assembly further comprises a milling tool that is fixed to the second end portion of the arm such that the milling tool is co-movably coupled with the probe via the arm.

The invention relates to a dental milling machine which has a closed milling chamber (12). Said milling chamber has an air inlet opening and an outlet which are substantially opposite each other relative to the milling chamber and generate an air stream. Said air stream sweeps over a machining area in which a milling tool subjects the workpiece to a milling machining step. One end of the milling chamber (12), in particular the front end, has a door that can be opened. The base (42) of the milling space (12) runs at least partially at an angle and in particular is rounded off and the outlet (40) is connected to the lowest region of the base (42).

Technology for milling selected portions of a workpiece by a cutting tool of a numerical control machine is described. The described technology provides methods and apparatuses for milling areas of a part so that more aggressive machining parameters can be used in the toolpath, thereby resulting in reduced machining time and load. The described technology additionally determines directions of the tool axis vector at points along a toolpath in order to achieve a desired part shape while optionally maintaining high material removal rates.

A cutter for cutting an implant is provided. The cutter includes a handle; a handle coupler coupled to the handle; a drill guide coupled to the handle coupler and including at least one window; a mill extending through the handle coupler and the drill guide and disposed to rotate freely therein; and a catch cup circumscribing the drill guide to maintain chips of the implant removed by the mill.

A chamfering device includes: a main body including, at a proximal end side thereof, a shank to be attached to a main shaft of a machine tool, the main body including, at a distal end side thereof, a shaft portion extending in a rotational axis direction; a movable body whose proximal end portion is mounted to the shaft portion, the movable body being configured to rotate together with the shaft portion and be movable in the rotational axis direction; an urging member configured to urge the movable body in a direction toward the distal end of the main body; a chamfering tool mounted to a distal end portion of the movable body and configured to rotate together with the movable body to perform chamfering on an edge portion of a workpiece; and a following member mounted to the movable body such that a position of the following member relative to the movable body in the rotational axis direction is invariable and the following member is rotatable relative to the movable body, the following member being configured such that a distal end thereof comes into contact with a surface of the workpiece.

A method of correcting a track of a cutting edge is provided. With movement of the cutting edge, a point on the cutting edge in contact with the rotation symmetry plane is moved along the cutting edge from a first end portion of the cutting edge to a second end portion of the cutting edge opposite to the first end portion. The correction method includes measuring, by a measurement unit, a shape of the cut and machined rotation symmetry plane, calculating, by an operation unit, an error of the measured shape of the rotation symmetry plane from a target shape of the rotation symmetry plane in a direction of the axial line of rotation, and correcting, by the operation unit, a component in the direction of the axial line of rotation of a track of a point of cutting based on the error.
