Proper chip evacuation techniques, vibration reduction create a better milling environment Milling deep cavities efficiently requires proper tooling and setup. Plunge milling can be performed by making repeated axial cuts at the tooling manufacturer’s recommended step-over. Plunge milling can be …

Creating the best surface finish means choosing the proper insert, cutting conditions, technique A combination of proper tools and technique can keep jobs on time and on spec. 1. Increase the Speed Increasing surface feet per minute (SFM) reduces built-up …

Groove and groove-turn operations require secure insert clamping, rigid toolholding to be successful The appropriate tooling geometry for the operation ensures the chip is controlled and easily exits the groove. The success or failure of any cutting operation is not …

Hard turning process can eliminate grinding, reduce setup time, improve throughput Technology advances in both machine tools and cutting tools are enabling manufacturers to turn a prehardened part faster and more efficiently. Hard part turning—turning a part that is harder …

CBN tooling enables manufacturers to create parts from prehardened material Hard turning is replacing grinding operations in some shops thanks to CBN tooling. Turning hardened parts is becoming increasingly popular across many manufacturing industries thanks to improvements in cubic boron …

Small imbalances cause major problems with tool life, surface quality Fast, lightweight cuts are the main feature of high-speed machining. High-speed machining, specifically milling, has the same variables as traditional milling. There are speeds and feeds to set and a …

Tools should have a physical vapor deposition coating, which acts as a barrier between the carbide and the material being cut. Reduced cutting conditions, reinforced cutting edges the key to successful hard drilling Choosing the correct tool for the job …

Cost per part, not cost per tool will help solidify a manufacturer’s bottom line. Rising commodity prices affect every facet of our lives; you only have to look at the price of incoming raw materials and fuel to see this …
