Summer may be coming to a close, but the precision machining industry continues to stay incredibly active with a multitude of new and improved products designed to optimize manufacturing operations.
Every month, we’re putting together a Technology Showcase, highlighting some of the product information that PM receives from supplier companies. For August, we focused on cutting tools, including an FB geometry for finishing grooves; a 5-flute, high-performance carbide end mill for high-speed roughing in aluminum; solid ceramic end mills with a phase-toughened substrate and a unique cutting geometry; and more as described below.
For the latest new products across the broad spectrum of precision machining, check out Production Machining’s New Products online.
