Cutting Tools & Tooling

The DDHM system is aimed primarily at customers in the tool and die-making industries. The focus is on machining carbide punches and dies efficiently. The tool system also offers significant advantages in other areas such as the medical and aerospace sectors, the automotive industry, and punching, forging and forming technology.

TwistSFeed reduces costs by improving tool life as well as achieving higher productivity due to multiple flutes along with new IN2205 coating designed for steel and cast iron applications. The clamping mechanism allows for the simple replacement of drill tips as well as accommodating multiple tip diameters per drill body facilitating economical stock management for end users.

The CoroTap T200 and T300 are optimized for ISO P1 and P2 steel workpiece materials, making them suitable for machining components in the automotive and general engineering industries. This includes crank shafts, steering knuckles, and general engineering components such as housings and flanges. Both tools are suitable for mass production.

Smaller thread size port tools are three flutes and larger thread size port tools are four flutes. 1179 port tools have a polished flute face for the best performance. Items are stocked uncoated or AlTiN coated. AlTiN coating is highly recommended if cutting steel as the coating prevents the chip from sticking to the carbide.

Cutting diameter sizes range from 1/8" to 1/2". Included angle options are 90° or 120°. The two-flute design is optimal when chip evacuation and increased chip per tooth are the priority. For harder materials, the fortified strength of the four-flute design performs best and allows for increased feed rates in hard materials.

High tool life is achieved thru WEP10C coated cermet grade with multilayer TiCN TiAlN PVD coating and fine cermet micro grain.

The Ceratizit Group's Hard Material Solutions division will host a week of eCarbide online seminars starting March 15 to 19. The seminars will cover a wide range of topics from carbide basics to expert knowledge.

Continuous development of customer-focused tool solutions is the idea behind the growth of Paul Horn GmbH, suppliers of cutting tools for manufacturers of machine tools for pipe and coupling production, as well as end users.

Incorporating a wide range of drill lengths and diameters, ARCH Cutting Tools Patriot High Performance portfolio of solid carbide drills excels across the broad spectrum of all ISO class workpiece materials, from general steels, cast irons, HSRA, and many more.

ARCH Cutting Tools has named Doug Wickham as its new direct marketing/business analyst. In this role, he is working with the Bloomfield Hills, Michigan-based ARCH Cutting Tools marketing and business development team and reports to Stacey Eeman, marketing and business development manager.

Customers of Big Kaiser helped raise $6,275 to benefit the National Robotics League (NRL). This represents the fifth annual contribution to the program by the Hoffman Estates, Illinois-based company.
