This year marks the 50th anniversary of a revolutionary invention that changed the way today’s manufacturers hold metalworking cutting tools. What has been an industry standard for decades now, the Rego-Fix ER collet is the most widely used clamping system in the world and still produced at the company’s Tenniken, Switzerland, plant.

The metalworking community comes together during IMTS to celebrate and promote manufacturing technology. Pavilions include Abrasive Machining, 3D-Printing, Controls, Fabrication, Gear Generation, Machine Components, Metal Removal, Quality Assurance, and Tooling and Workholding.  The show is co-located with Hannover Messe USA. The following article looks at a few of the products and technologies offered this September at McCormick Place in Chicago from September 12–17, 2022:             

At IMTS 2022 in Booth #431822, Rego-Fix will showcase innovations that extend the company's Swiss precision beyond toolholding. Featured technologies include the 3D-EdgeMaster measuring device and MasterBar test arbors – two new product entries for setup and test measurement.
