PCBN Inserts with HH Chipbreaker

Kyocera Precision Tools introduces new economical double-sided, multiple-edge PCBN inserts with HH chipbreaker for machining hardened material with excellent chip control. These PCBN inserts are design for optimized small DOC finishing for workpieces that are 55 HRC or harder.

The 360 Series Endmill from Precision Cutting Tools

Precision Cutting Tools has improved it’s 360 series endmill for 2019. The design consists of the eccentric OD, a sharp corner, a larger gullet and a ground 1° radial land. The series increases metal-removal rates and minimizes chatter. The endmill is ideal for aluminum milling applications. This tool also comes standard with our PVD Diamond Coating, Exxtral Carbon, for up to 3 times more tool life. All these characteristics lead to improved accuracy, higher speeds and feeds, machining longer DOC and superior surface finishes.

C-HOG MILLHOG O.D. Clamping End Prep Tool

An OD clamping portable beveling tool that is ideal for performing end preps on thin-wall tube where maintaining the integrity of the ID is critical has been introduced by Esco Tool.

Challenging holemaking operations? No problem for KenTIP FS

KenTIP FS is suitable for many challenging operations. Chain hole drilling in steel is one of them. While KenTIP FS has four coolant holes — two at the tip and two in the chip gullet directly behind the head — the HPG geometry comes without front coolant holes. When drilling in steel it's important to concentrate on coolant delivery to the rake and take the heat from the contact zone between chip and rake surface. The new HPG geometry is especially designed for steel, and comes in the hew, highly wear resistant grade KCP15A.

CoroMill 178 and CoroMill 180 Cutters

A new power skiving solution composed of CoroMill 178 and CoroMill 180 cutters from Sandvik Coromant is being released to help automotive manufacturers complete gear and spline components in one setup on a multitask machine or machining center. Skiving processes are many times faster than shaping and more flexible than broaching, and are quickly becoming an efficient and flexible alternative for gear and spline production.

With MQL, the advantages are clear
