Tool Systems solves small radius insert issue.
A customer conctacted us in trouble, he was buying a Kennametal boring insert that was not going to be available anymore. He required a main finish boring insert with .004 radii for general materials but mostly for Titanium & High Nickel Alloys. He also requested the same insert with .002 radii. He had the carbide bars so wanted to fill the pockets for tooling he already had.
We found the .004 radii no problem, Plenty of stock TiALN coated.
We dug deeper and was able to get the .002 radii insert off the shelf with 2 choices for the customer. A flat top or with a full length molded chip breaker.
Tool Systems does the leg work for you, give us your application and we will find what you want.
We also have the ability to manufacture the tool for you if it's not a standard off-the-shelf. If the customer so desired we could even have our carbide center make the insert up from scratch with a zero (0) radii. Posted By: Tony On: 2010-04-26 22:10:17 |
