The Mikron HSM 600U LP high-speed milling center is recommended for prototype production, diemaking and fully automated, low-volume series production where accuracy and surface finish are critical.

Everyone wants to reduce cycle times, but simply machining faster isn’t necessarily the answer. If high speed milling comes at the cost of reduced tool life and surface finish, the minutes gained ...

The Matsuura H.Plus-405 is a large-capacity HMC for high-speed milling and contouring. It has feedrates and rapids up to 1,968 ipm in all axes, 1-G acceleration, and a high-speed pallet changer. The ...

To improve speed, thermal stability, and rigidity, Makino designed the SNC64G/S with an advanced spindle that allows it to cut steel cores and cavities, graphite, and copper electrodes. The milling ...

In today’s highly competitive global landscape, manufacturers face an extraordinary demand to produce high-quality parts and be highly productive and efficient, often with fewer resources. In the past ...

High-speed machining technology has created the need for a new attitude among moldmakers and machinists, say shop owners. Buying the equipment is the easy part, they say. The tough part is getting ...

High-speed steels are tool steels that find applications in machine tools that have high rates of material removal. Tungsten high-speed steels (group T) and molybdenum high-speed steels (group M) are ...

High-speed tool steels are divided into molybdenum high-speed steels and tungsten high-speed steels. Molybdenum high-speed steels are known as Group M steels. These steels have lower initial cost even ...
