The tools address deep threads, long overhangs, difficult materials and unstable setups. Features include hard-substrate grades, optimized geometry, PVD coatings and chatter-free technology in selected variants. The company says these features help reduce vibration and improve stability in titanium and heat-resistant superalloys.
The range supports workpiece materials up to 48 HRC, usable lengths up to 4×D and multiple thread forms and sizes. Chatter-free technology is available in 3×D and 4×D length variants, with internal coolant options also available.
Orbital thread milling provides chip control, permits full bottom threads and allows adjustments to machining strategies, thread tolerances and radius compensation. Typical applications include aerospace engine casings, hydraulic blocks, cylinder heads, medical instruments and precision electronic components.
