Metalworking has grown by leaps and bounds with the latest in manufacturing technology. Cutting tools and machining processes have evolved to the point where industrial equipment can be made faster and at lesser expense than ever before. These end products are used in every facet of life from the home to the office and in essentially every industry and market. The end result of these advances is to make the manufacturing sector competitive in the global marketplace by providing precision products at the lowest price.
New technologies focus on refining overall production processes. The best way to do so is to combine multiple process steps into one machining operation. Every time materials have to be switched between machines, there is lost time due to loading and unloading along with repositioning and workholding. New working materials and processes helps accomplish the reduction in working steps required for precision products.
Hard Turning And Milling Operations
A common bottleneck in working with hard metals was the need for intermediate working steps. For example, if the cutting tools in use were not capable of working a hard metal, that metal would have to be worked and then heat treated to its final hardness, r
