Manufacturing and machining rotary tools with VOLLMER: efficient and precise!

The VGrind 360, VOLLMER’s latest tool grinding machine, is equipped with enhanced travel distances in order to machine carbide tools up to a diameter of 100 millimeters. Thanks to its two vertical spindles, the VGrind 360 also allows for tried-and-tested multi-level machining. This enables tool manufacturers to quickly and precisely produce large numbers of milling cutters, drills, etc. whose blanks are made from either solid carbide or HSS (high speed steel).

Achieve Fast Stock Removal with P.B.S. Braze Bond Grinding Products

Abrasive Technology’s P.B.S.® braze bond grinding products promote high diamond exposure with optimal coverage for aggressive tooling that lasts longer, cuts faster and runs cooler. Our proprietary P.B.S.® process eliminates peeling and diamond pull out, making these products ideal for machining tough-to-cut materials where fast stock removal and deep cuts are required.

New DoForce-Tri 07 Insert Maximizes Shoulder Milling Productivity

Tungaloy expands its DoForce-Tri line of square shoulder milling cutters to include a size 07 insert, with 6 cutting edges for precision milling and insert economy. The DoForce-Tri 07 insert allows the insert density and feed capability to be as high as double that of the conventional, trigonal insert, while maintaining the same D.O.C. This is possible because of the innovative, curved cutting edge geometry on a smaller insert. The insert has 6 cutting edges that include a wiper. The tool also has high wall accuracy because of the optimized insert design.

'Poly – Poly – or what?' Part 8: How the 'issue with the comma' became a success

Let’s look back. Could it be that the world’s first presentation of a dia-compact monoblock milling cutter for aluminium machining at FAMETA in 1980 already laid the foundation for large-scale use within the automobile industry in the 80s? Actually yes, if the aforementioned “stumbling blocks” were not there.
