Mikron Tool

A unique tool for numerous applications: Milling of holes, ramps, pockets, grooves and sides. Seemingly without resistance, the milling cutter plunges into the materials that are difficult to machine. It cuts powerfully with high precision, stability and excellent cutting parameters, even into the solid - effortlessly. Behind this perfection is a…
The need for such dimensions is increasing that’s why Mikron Tool has introduced a fractional inches diameter range for a large assortment of its drilling and milling cutter families.

Small, deep and fast, these are the characteristics of the small drill CrazyDrill Cool SST-Inox. Due to internal coolant ducts, innovative geometry and innovative coating, the machining of stainless steels, nickel based super alloys and CrCo-alloys has become significantly simpler and process stable. This goes also for small diameters, as well as…
The CrazyMill Cool products have been developed by the Swiss tool manufacturer Mikron Tool for milling in small dimensions with high performance and quality. Now a new “family member” has been added. It is a four-teeth finishing milling cutter with shank integrated cooling, available in the diameter range of 1 to 8 mm und for milling depths of up…
Fast and reliable milling of stainless steel, titanium, heat-resistant alloys or even CrC alloys is a huge challenge for many machine operators and tool manufacturers. To overcome the challenge, the Swiss cutting tool manufacturer Mikron Tool launched CrazyMill Cool, a product family that promises a valuable solution in a diameter range from 0.3…
Drilling and threading with the same tool? Even in working depth up to 3 diameters? Yes it is possible, thanks to the new DC Swiss circular thread milling cutter from Mikron Tools with internal coolant starting from 3mm (0.12”).
Mikron Corp. Monroe provides cutting tools from 0.004" (0.1mm) to 0.25" (6.0mm) in diameter for machining stainless steel, titanium, chrome-cobalt and high-temperature alloys. These include the CrazyDrill Twicenter with through-coolant ducts for centering, the CrazyMill Cool through-coolant milling cutter, the CrazyMill Chamfer deburring…
Mikron Corp. Monroe, which specializes in high-precision cutting tools in small and medium-sized diameter ranges, expands its offer by adding a new product family. Another Swiss quality product, tapping and threading tools from the DC Swiss, is now available directly from inventory at Mikron Corp. Monroe in Connecticut.
Mikron Tool SA Agno says it has achieved a quantum leap in milling of stainless steel, titanium, chrome-cobalt alloys and superalloys with the CrazyMill Cool.
One year ago, Mikron Tool introduced flexible solid carbide drills and earned respect from the producers of deep hole drills, because these drills, starting at 0.1mm diameter, achieved drilling depths up to 30 x D. Today, the Swiss tool producer takes another step forward and expands their drilling program of CrazyDrill Flex. We are now talking…
The three main factors which appeal to users of the new MIKRON Multistar NX-24 Rotary Machining System from an economical perspective are outstanding productivity, full flexibility and highest precision.
Mikron Corp. Monroe offers the CrazyDrill drill with cutting depths of 15, 20 and 30 diameters starting from a 1mm diameter and 40 diameters starting from a 2mm diameter.
Mikron Corp. Monroe engineers special tools, which are often combination tools for several different machining operations.
A milling cutter from Mikron Corp. Monroe is for back chamfer milling of small contours and bores, starting from 0.4mm in diameter. The company recommends conventional milling in two steps to avoid secondary burrs.
A circular shape provides multiple benefits in the machining world. For example, round inserts are stronger than inserts with any other shape. However, when it comes to coolant channels in cutting tools and toolholders, channels that don’t have circular cross sections can enhance operations.
The medical technology poses major challenges for machinists.
