FlatleyOSG, in co-operation with our long-term partner Sandvik Coromant, are proud to support Éirspace – a non-profit organisation run by Trinity College Dublin students looking to equip other students enrolled in universities across Ireland with experience and knowledge in rocketry and aerospace technology.

According to careersportal.ie, there are currently only two universities in Ireland that provide level 8 courses in aerospace engineering, out of the 1612 level 8 courses available in Ireland.

Éirspace believes that in the modern age of spaceflight, this needs to change as Irish engineering graduates are not empowered to avail of the emerging jobs across Europe within the aerospace industry.

FlatleyOSG and Sandvik Coromant know from experience that Irish engineers are at the cutting edge of technological advancements across the globe and echo the belief that further sponsorship and support of this spirit of innovation is crucial to #shapingyourdreams.

Flatley Engineering encourage all its customers to “Make the Switch” – to a Sandvik Coromant CoroCut®QD or CoroCut®1-2 Parting and Grooving systems.

CoroCut®QD redefines traditional performance standards for parting and grooving applications. When you need to machine deep grooves or part off in long overhangs, CoroCut® QD is the safest choice. All tools have over- and under coolant for best performance and chip control. Add the support from plug and play coolant adapters and a stable, user-friendly clamping mechanism and you get CoroCut® QD  —a system to rely on.

Check out the Success Stories

CoroCut 1-2 ensures truly secure and efficient machining with easily connected over- and under-coolant on all tools and together with an extremely rigid spring clamping mechanism. The system covers all parting and grooving applications in most materials, from standardised grooves to parting off and profiling in heat resistant super alloys.

The Importance of COOLANT – The use of coolant and lubrication has a large impact on process security in parting and grooving. If applied right, it reduces temperature at the cutting zone and improves chip evacuation.

ZOLLER UK CASE STUDY

Zoller Genius 3S enhances tool measuring routines at Flatley Engineering

Cutting tool manufacturer Flatley Engineering, which is part of the global OSG group of companies, is leveraging the technical capabilities of a Zoller Genius 3S universal tool measuring machine to help the business provide fully certified and traceable tools to its customers. Meticulous and comprehensive inspection is a key part of business as it allows the company to maintain the most complex of tool geometries and thus ensure design integrity across the entire manufacturing process. Along with a CNC control unit and camera, the Genius 3S features Zoller’s renowned Pilot image processing software. The machine also offers auto-focus capabilities, as well as a rotary encoder and Zoller’s Ace high precision spindle complete with power-operated clamping and braking. Designed as a robust unit that is able to withstand use in shop floor environments, the Genius 3S also provides inherently high levels of ergonomics and versatility, typically through modular set-up capabilities. What’s more, users can enjoy a measuring range of 600 by 175 by 100mm in the Z-, X- and Y-axis respectively, while the maximum diameter capacity is 340mm. Features favoured by Flatley Engineering include the ability of the Zoller machine to create and save electronic QC records, generate reports and, importantly, ease of use, which is facilitated in the main by Zoller’s Pilot 3.0 software. Although Zoller provides full training, learning how to use the machine is straightforward, ensuring that not just metrology lab personnel but grinding machine operatives are able to use the machine for first-off, in-process and final inspection routines on a daily basis. “Where Zoller is concerned, we see them as a very important link in continuing to deliver precision-manufactured tools to our end users,” concludes Mr O’Regan. “In short, the Zoller Genius is undoubtedly playing a big part as we move forward to new horizons.”
