Cutting Tools & Tooling

Components manufacturer, norelem Inc., said that has expanded its product range by adding 30,000 parts to its catalog.

Shipments of cutting tools in January 2025 were up compared to December 2024, but fell compared to January 2024. The dive reflected a softer than normal market in January.

The flat machining of bi‐metal surfaces or milling applications involving an interrupted cut can present challenges to PCD or carbide milling cutters. Inserts may chip during the milling process, resulting in high machining costs & elevated levels of sub‐standard or rejected parts. ElectroMill® produces high quality, flat milled surfaces, even if an interrupted cut is present or multiple materials are to be machined simultaneously. It effectively replaces expensive, complex cutters in high volume applications like high strength alloys, stainless steel, ceramics, cast iron, fiberglass pipe, composites and aluminum. Benefits include high stock removal rates, stress-free cutting action, extended tool life, industry standard adapter mountings and milling cutting dimensions.

Good news for machining companies: As they have a high content of recycled tungsten carbide, the CO₂ emissions of Walter's indexable inserts are 36 percent lower than those of indexable inserts made from virgin materials.

Shipments of cutting tools, measured by the Cutting Tool Market Report compiled in a collaboration between AMT – The Association For Manufacturing Technology and the U.S. Cutting Tool Institute (USCTI), totaled $179.5 million in December 2024. U.S. cutting tool orders in 2024 drop 0.6% YoY compared to 2023.

With barely a touch, the multi-axis FlexArm REM-24D electronic tapping arm with a multi-position head moved gracefully around the part, making it easy to tap a part where needed and helping to eliminate operator fatigue and reduce the possibility of repetitive motion injuries.
