SN 200R/400R/500R Endmills
Niagara Cutter has expanded its range of endmills for high-feed milling applications. The new Niagara SNn200R/400R/500R solid-carbide endmills with 2-, 4- and 5-flute options allow parts manufacturers to achieve maximum productivity when performing face, slot and select plunge milling operations. Niagara applied the latest design and grinding developments to the SN 200R/400R/500R endmills, which feature a defined radius (rp) that helps direct radial cutting pressure axially up into the tool holder and spindle.

KCG Boring Mill
UnionChemnitz has developed a new precision boring mill. The KCG was developed to fill the gap in the market between a classic boring mill and a jig boring machine in terms of precision and price-performance ratio. The oldest existing machine tool manufacturer in Europe used its 160 years of experience to design a precision boring mill whose accuracy is significantly higher than that of a classic horizontal boring mill, yet comes with a classic HBM's flexibility.
