Milling

Dormer Pramet's latest milling grades - M4303 and M4310 - provide durability and reliability in semifinishing and finishing applications.

The inch version of the popular Helical AD for roughing applications is now available. Offering a DOC up to 3.150", the cutters are suitable for use with the Pramet range of versatile ADMX 16 inserts and support medium machining of most engineering materials, including cast iron, stainless steel, aluminum alloys and superalloys.

Responding to the increase in hybrid manufacturing, the latest release of Edgecam introduced a new Additive Machining module. Supporting the Direct Energy Deposition method, Edgecam now offers a dedicated manufacturing cycle which accurately guides a laser as it deposits material to form a shape.

Cutting tool and tooling systems specialist Sandvik Coromant is launching GC4330 and GC4340, two new insert grades for steel milling. With the development of advanced production technologies, such as a new substrate, Inveio coating and an improved post-treatment technology, the new grades provide great opportunities to substantially increase tool life and process security compared to the previous generation of grades, GC4230 and GC4240, which will now be superseded.

Where do we come from – what is our destination? This was the question after the first introduction of this new cutting material "polycrystalline diamonds" (PCD) at the Hanover Trade Show in 1973.

Sandvik Coromant is releasing two series of ceramic endmills for optimized performance in nickel-based alloys. The latest brazed ceramic CoroMill 316 and ceramic CoroMill Plura endmills offer a more productive method for roughing in ISO S materials compared to standard carbide milling cutters.

Mill/turn lathes and multitask machines continue to cut a broad swath across the manufacturing landscape.

High Torque retention knobs keep toolholders in balance.

Machine Technology: Researchers are close to developing a precision robotic arm for more economical milling.

The H330 Series is engineered exclusively for high-speed milling of Aluminum applications.

Electric mobility is becoming increasingly important in the automotive industry. The number of electrically powered vehicles produced is increasing. MAPAL already offers a wide range of innovative machining solutions for the manufacture of individual parts and components that are machined.
