BOEHLERIT EXPANDS 3D MILLING SYSTEM

Under a joint sales cooperation with Boehlerit, Ringwood-based Horn Cutting Tools has introduced to the UK market an expanded 3D milling programme for the tool and mould making industry.

The ISO 00P is a universal tool system for general mechanical engineering and mould making. As the inserts are mounted in a neutral position in the tool holder, they ensure a high level of contouring accuracy. Despite the neutral position, the edge geometry enables a soft cut to be achieved.

With the RHOMBItec system, Boehlerit is presenting a universal finishing tool for all standard materials and applications. The indexable inserts demonstrate high manufacturing precision and long tool life. The axial and radial wiper geometry ensures high productivity, outstanding surface quality and vibration-free finishing, even at high depths of cut.

The BALLtec and TORROtec milling systems are multi-functional tools for achieving high productivity. They allow users to save on tool holders, as the ball nose copying tools are suitable for semi-finishing and finishing.

In addition, Boehlerit offers a wide variety of indexable inserts and tool holders. The carbide shank with brazed insert seat ensures excellent vibration damping, resulting in exceptional surface quality on the workpiece. The use of ultrafine carbides for the inserts ensures high wear resistance combined with elevated fracture resistance, which increases process reliability. All variants have an internal coolant supply.
