A close view of high-feed milling in process. Ingersoll’s high-feed Powerfeed Plus tool feeds faster and cuts lighter, to accelerate metal removal and protect Wemco’s light-frame CNC machines.

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 ...

Diamond coated graphite end mills improve machining stability, surface finish, and wear resistance for high-precision ...

Cowl arm production begins with machining a bore 4.5-in. deep and from 25-in. to 36-in. inside diameter. Ace Precision Industries of Akron, Ohio, produces several variations of small components for ...

High-feed milling is possible due to the effect of chip thinning resulting from the shallow lead angle of the cutter – typically 10 to 25 degrees. The smaller the lead angle, the more the feed can be ...
