On-site Showcases at EMO's Horn Area
In the dynamic world of technology and engineering, several significant advancements have been made recently. Here's a roundup of some notable events and innovations that are poised to shape the future of manufacturing and aerospace industries.
Dr. Maria Schneider was the one who presented Paul Horn's groundbreaking Mini-system cutting tool innovation at the Horn Technology Days in May 2025. This innovative tooling system, which includes the Mini system with sintered chip breaker geometry, is set to be showcased by Paul Horn at the EMO exhibition, along with numerous other tooling innovations.
The EMO exhibition, a renowned tradeshow for cutting tools, will serve as an ideal platform for dialogue and the exchange of ideas, according to Markus Horn, managing director of Paul Horn. The demonstrations at the EMO will include high surface finish machining, machining of lead-free materials, aluminium machining with rotating polycrystalline diamond tools, and high technology component production requiring numerous sequential turning operations.
The Mini system with sintered I-geometry, first unveiled at the Horn Technology Days, is particularly aimed at machining materials having poor chip formation properties. This system has been developed by Paul Horn to address the machining of lead-free materials, which are being phased out due to their toxicity. Inserts with small corner radii starting from 0.05mm for small lateral infeeds are available for the Mini system with sintered I-geometry.
Meanwhile, Woodward Inc has announced plans to build a precision manufacturing facility in Greer, South Carolina, in Spartanburg County. This move is expected to further strengthen the US manufacturing sector.
Orbex, a UK-based space launch company, has successfully completed its first full simulation of the Prime vehicle launch. This marks a key technical milestone as Orbex prepares to deliver orbital launch services from the UK next year.
AERO Asia is offering 5 x pairs of guest tickets to attend the show in Zhuhai, China this November. To enter the giveaway, simply like and repost the post, and follow their LinkedIn page. Winners will be announced on AERO Asia's LinkedIn page by 23 Sep 2025.
Lastly, Mapal will present a range of innovative tooling solutions at Advanced Engineering, focusing on the aerospace, automotive, and fluid power sectors. The UK Metals Expo 2025 will take place at the NEC Birmingham on 10-11 September, bringing together the entire metals supply chain and the manufacturing and engineering community.
As these developments unfold, it's an exciting time for the manufacturing and aerospace industries, with advancements in technology and innovation driving progress and shaping the future.
