Vision Engineering has been manufacturingquality optical systems since 1958.Engineers and scientists use these systemsworldwide for inspection and measurementor as production tools, with more than500,000 units shipped to date.
Our systems use a number of differentpatented principles. They expand the exitpupil of the subject and offer the operatorfreedom of head and body position,improving comfort and increasing efficiency.
The stereo product range is ideal for inspection tasks. Patented low fatigue viewing is combined with firstclass optics and resolution. These include:The award-winning Mantis ‘Eyepieceless’low magnification stereo viewer and theLynx ‘Eyepieceless’ stereo microscope.
Vision Engineering’s measurement rangeoffers patented, high accuracy metrologywith a wide range of capacity andcapability options.
Kestrel Elite is an entry level,‘Eyepieceless’ measuring microscope. Thehigh accuracy, simple to use systemenhances both measurement andinspection capabilities make it ideal forshop-floor production use.
Falcon is a 3-axis video measuring system.With high repeatability and reproducibilitythe Falcon is reliable, making it a valuableaddition to any quality control department.
Swift-Duo is a video measuring systemwith an incorporated ergonomicmeasuring microscope. This allowssamples to be measured and inspectedwithin the same routine.
The Hawk family is a range of highlycapable measuring microscopes with avariety of measurement and data captureoptions, including fully automaticmovement, autofocus and Video EdgeDetection (VED).

Managing Director: Tony Pennington

WNT continues to grow its share of theUK cutting tool market with 2013 seeingSheffield-based WNT (UK) exceeding£20 million turnover for the first time inits history. This growth is from a broadrange of engineering sectors, butcontinues to be founded on WNT’sindustry leading technical support andextensive range of precision cutting tools.
WNT continues to innovate with newcutting tool technologies that meet theneeds of its customers. Among these areMastermill 2520 indexable milling cuttersfor titanium, HFC 06 cutters smalldiameter indexable insert milling, andHCN 2125 turning grade for stainless steel.
Mastermill 2520 delivers high performancemilling of titanium, superalloys andstainless steel components. Cutting dataof up to 0,6 mm per tooth feed rates, and3 mm depth of cut (theoretical 5.5 mm) ispossible due to the design of the cutterbodies and inserts that provide eightcutting edges per insert. This combinationgenerates increased performance,productivity, and security when machiningthese difficult to machine materials.
HCN2125 targets increased productivitywhen turning stainless steel, with tool lifeimprovements of up to 50 per cent notuncommon.HCN 2125 is deliveringgenuine benefits in: higher cutting data;greatlyimproved tool life; increasedproductivity; enhanced surface quality;application reliability and improvedmachine utilisation.
HFC 06 fills the gap between solid carbideend milling and the larger diameterindexable insert cutters. By using a 6 mmedge length insert it is possible to achievehigh performance milling with indexableinsert cutters as small as 16 mm diameter.
Having a market leading range of highquality, competitively priced, cutting toolsis only part of WNT’s success, with itscustomers, who are mainly small tomedium sized businesses, benefitting fromclass leading expertise, logistics andcustomer service. This support has a majorimpact on the day-to-day business of itscustomers as they benefit directly fromthe knowledge of its team of technicalsales engineers, who are all highly skilledmachinists, with first-hand knowledge ofthe issues that their customers are facing.
This mix of high qualityproducts and technicalexpertise and service hascombined to create the WNTbrand of TOTAL TOOLING =QUALITY x SERVICE2. Thisprovides each individualcustomer with exactly thesupport it needs, by providingthe right tool at the right time with theapplication knowledge to make themachining process more effective.

WS2 – Problem Solver for the Plastics Industry
WS2 is a problem solver for the Plastics Industry!
Many plastic injection moulders andtoolmakers are finding WS2 low-frictionsurface treatment the answer to theirrelease, flow and pick-up problems.
Indeed, the number of tools whereproduction was either difficult orimpossible being transformed by WS2 toa working condition continues to increase.
Many moulders are specifying WS2 onnew tools as a means of cutting the timespent on ‘getting the tool working’ whilereducing production ‘down time’ andcycle-times to a minimum.
WS2 is used on plastic injection moulds asa permanent release agent and ‘coated-on’ lubricant. WS2 is finding particularusage with unscrewing cores, injectionmould cavities and cores, inserts, knifeblades for film cutting, blow moulding,head tooling, clean room mouldingoperations, hot runner valve gear andenhancement of flow-in moulds with filingproblems. When used on stainless steelsit can eliminate pickup and galling onmetal-on-metal sliding parts.
A Midlands Electrical Switch Box moulderhad a problem mould with parts regularlysticking. WS2 was applied to both halvesof the mould. After three months thecompany reported 140 hours saving indown-time and 1/4 tonne saving inmaterial. The total job cost less than 200!
