MTD Magazine, 2026 May Edition!

With real customer components and live demos, this booth is going to be something else!

It's one thing to talk about results. It's another to walk customers through the actual components and the journey behind them. That's exactly what Sandvik Coromant are doing at IMTS 2026, with live machine tool demos so you can see exactly what's possible and how it applies to your own business. Come with a Challenge. Leave with a Solution. https://www.sandvik.coromant.com/en-us/campaigns/imts?utm_source=linkedin&utm_medium=paid-social&utm_campaign=2026_us_imts2026&utm_content=mtdcnc

Sandvik Coromant aren't just a tooling company, and IMTS 2026 is where they're proving it.

Come with a manufacturing challenge, leave with a solution. That's the Sandvik Coromant promise for this year’s show – and after the buzz they created in 2024, they're doubling down on everything that worked! Arthur Field of MTDCNC sits down with Victoria and Jeremy of Sandvik Coromant to go behind the scenes of one of manufacturing's biggest trade show presences, from twenty-four months of planning and live customer component displays to one-on-one meetings with engineering experts and brand-new digital experiences inside the booth. What’s it like to have Sandvik Coromant be your partner in manufacturing? IMTS 2026 is where that story gets told.

Forging has been around for centuries, and it still matters more than ever.

Since 1919, Clifford Jacobs Forging has been shaping steel into parts that keep the world moving – from Apache helicopters and F-18 components to elevator axles and mining equipment. In today’s MTDCNC Podcast, our guest Lori Brown of IMT Corporation breaks down what forging really is, why it still outperforms casting in critical applications, and how AI, simulation, and smarter furnace controls are modernising one of manufacturing's oldest trades.

Any seal will do. Unless you want it to last 20,000 hours.

Freudenberg Sealing Technologies aren't just selling seals. They're selling uptime, energy savings, and one less thing to worry about during maintenance. Because less maintenance, more uptime, and a lower energy bill? That's not just a seal – that’s a business case! Full EP - https://youtu.be/tsPYZP8IDHY

The components keeping the world's gearboxes, robots, and machines alive!

Seals don't make the headlines, but they're what keeps gearboxes spinning, robots moving, and machines running for 15,000 to 20,000 hours without failure. Freudenberg Sealing Technologies have been perfecting them since 1929, and the gap between a standard seal and a Freudenberg seal is bigger than most people think. In this podcast, Joe of Freudenberg Sealing Technologies breaks down three game-changing products: the Premium Sine Seal, the IPSR robotics seal, and the MSS-1 modular sealing solution – and why the right seal isn't just about preventing leaks, it's about redefining reliability. Because when “Amazon builds a new facility and buys ten miles of conveyor belts,” every single gearbox in that system needs a seal. Make it count.
