Cutting tools

Selective preservation of surface topography

The unique ability of the Micro Machining Process (MMP) to selectively target roughness can dramatically impact the performance and tool life of specialized cutting tools.


Technical benefits of using MMP :

• Reduces flute friction, dramatically improving chip evacuation
• Improves lubrication retention, reducing heat generation
• Controlled and repeatable edge honing
• Superior surface preparation prior to coating improves adhesion of thin coatings (i.e. PVDs)
• Treating PVD coatings improves cut quality by reducing friction


MMP advantages :

• Increased tool life
• Increased cutting speed
• Increased feed rates
• Superior consistency


Micro-burrs are removed and cutting edge strength is increased
