    CXPlus’s AICrN advanced arc deposition process deposits coatings at far higher energy levels than conventional processes. This results in increased density, a higher resistance to wear and a reduction in chipping on cutting edges. Its smooth surface and the controlled coating composition ensures improved tool performance. CXPlus is suitable for wet and dry machining at medium to high speeds in milling and drilling operations with temperatures reaching up to 1050°C. Its versatility makes it suitable for a wide range of materials including low to high tensile steels, cast irons, tool steels, stainless steels, titanium and nickel alloy To discover how our CXPlus AICrN coating is smoother, harder and stronger, head to page 73 of our full range brochure here https://lnkd.in/eXUjdNmr #Quickgrind #CXPlus #InfinitePossibilities

    Our Jaguar drills are made with the latest submicrograin carbide which, combined with a special coating and self-centring geometry, results in increased productivity and a reduced cost per hole. More throughput, lower costs. The Jaguar is primarily designed for use in steels and tool steels but is versatile enough to work well in other materials. Various coatings are available to aid performance and lengthen tool life. Centre-drilling is not required when boring high quality holes. Remember, Infinite Possibilities® means we can tailor-make any drill for your application. We will even match, and of course, optimise a drill from another manufacturer. Talk to us about your next project by calling us on +44 (0) 1684 294090. #Quickgrind #Jaguar #TheArtOfTooling #InfinitePossibilities

    The Puma HRSA-TC (through-coolant) and HRSA-D (solid) are the result of extensive work to develop the ultimate carbide drills for the economic and secure drilling of tough and difficult materials such as titanium, stainless steels, Nimonic® and other super alloys. Long-chipping materials can result in work-hardening, chip elongation, low thermal conductivity and welding on the tool, but the Puma overcomes these problems. Clever flute design produces optimal chip shape resulting in smooth chip evacuation. To discover our Puma drill, please visit https://lnkd.in/eBbUCdmz

    T-slot cutters are used to produce accurate keyways and T-slots in various components, often in tables and beds for machine tools. A slot must first be milled using endmills or slot drills to allow the neck of the tool to enter the slot. Working with you and by understanding your requirements we will design a T-slot cutter with the geometry and specifications to suit your application. We are often asked by our clients to provide T-slot cutters which require specific angles along with combinations of corner detail such as radii or chamfers on one or both corners, as shown. To find out more how you can T-slot with accuracy, view our full range brochure and go to page 52 https://lnkd.in/eXUjdNmr #Quickgrind #TSlot #InfinitePossibilities

    Machining has been the backbone of the manufacturing industry for centuries. Over the years, techniques and technologies have evolved, but challenges remain. Today, the industry strives for precision, speed and efficiency. Achieving these often hinges on the quality of the tools used. That’s where solid carbide tooling steps in. Brands like Quickgrind have been at the forefront of offering state-of-the-art solutions in this regard. We delve into some common machining challenges and explore how solid carbide tooling, particularly those from Quickgrind, can offer solutions. We discuss the prevention of wear and tear, heat generation, inconsistent surface finish and much more.

    Combining the performance of our Eliminator barrel tools, with the modularity and flexibility of exchangeable heads from our solid carbide ModX® range - giving you the best of both worlds with no compromise to performance. Our Eliminator barrel tools are highly efficient for finishing and semi-finishing using our unique conical geometry making it ideal for profiling flanks, steep walls, flat planes and faces with minimal curvature. In terms of cycle times, the increased ap (step down) and reduced tool path distances can save you up to 90% on machining times. Smaller cusp (scallop) heights lead to a low Ra finish and reduced effects of thermal deformation (heat transfer) give you longer tool life. Mixed with the features and benefits of ModX®: • Carbide shank with 2μm tolerance for accurate, reliable machining • Unique ModX® locking mechanism for maximum coupling stability between shank and head • Infinite Possibilities® compatible – full customisation including shank length, head length, diameter, coatings and more • QuickCam® compatible – we will work with you to produce the optimum machining strategies for your operations • QuickEdge® compatible – heads can be remanufactured to as-new for up to 9x extra usage • Cost-effective shipping – less weight equals reduced costs • Environmentally friendly – reduces the need for virgin carbide, a finite natural resource Check out https://lnkd.in/egYe2sug to discover ModX® and our Eliminator range at https://lnkd.in/ew9DRaZy or barreltools.com today. #Quickgrind #ModX #Eliminator #InfinitePossibilities
