Helical Solutions LLC offers the HEV-7 variable-pitch, high-performance solid-carbide endmill.

Without some sort of "turbo" attachment, you won't get far trying to dry-machine Inconel or titanium with a conventional end mill. In the form of the universal end mill series Turbomax, tool manufacturer InovaTools has reportedly delivered a multi-talented product.

Moldmaking processes require innovative cutting tool technologies capable of delivering the highest degree of precision, flexibility and efficiency. With its latest line of endmills, NS Tool equips manufacturers with capabilities for boosting productivity and maximizing output in high-performance hard milling, according to distributor Single Source Technologies.

Seco Tools LLC has introduced a line of R220.LN14 square shoulder mills that reduce costs and improve performance in demanding applications that require large depths of cut.

Kennametal's NOVO digital process planning application has continued growing by supplying complete tool data (milling, turning, holemaking, tools, toolholders, spare parts, speeds and feeds, and much more) digitally, saving process planners, parts estimators, and manufacturing engineers hours of catalog lookups and process guesswork.

Late last year, Kennametal finalized its acquisition of the tungsten materials business from Allegheny Technologies Inc., including the full line of Stellram metalworking tools.

Emuge Corp. announced a comprehensive line of high-performance tools for threading demanding nickel/superalloy materials to 46 HRC.

Walter has introduced the Walter Prototyp Supreme MB265 and MB266 solid-carbide milling cutters, two new milling tools that boost productivity due to their high metal-removal rates, while also increasing process reliability thanks to design features that act to enhance stability while simultaneously decreasing the likelihood of microfracturing.

Walter USA LLC has introduced the M4000, a universal milling system that improves production while reducing tooling requirements, thus reducing costs.

With the INOSCREW modular milling system, the tool manufacturer InovaTools says it supports tool and mold construction with a technically sophisticated and cost-effective solution.
