Increase Productivity with Insert Compression Router Tooling When purchasing tooling for CNC routers the most common choice, especially for nested operations, is solid carbide router bits. Because of the overwhelming options, particularly in small diameters, number of flutes and improved feed speeds, solid carbide is a safe and popular choice. When it comes to machining thicker […]
Precision ThermoTec Heat Shrink Tool Holder The ThermoTec heat shrink chucks are precision balanced to 30,000RPM with a runout tolerance of .003mm (0.00012″) making them great for high torque/high speed machining. In heat shrink chucks, collets and nuts are not used between the tool shank and tool holder creating a more evenly distributed clamping force […]
Cost Comparison – Inserts vs. Solid Carbide Bits We’ve had some interest around how the costs break down in our last post, “Increase Productivity with Insert Compression Router Tooling”. Here is an example using the same 6243 series (PN#6243.029.34 with insert#6243.295.00) two flute compression style insert router bit for comparison against a solid carbide two flute compression spiral (PN#6229.750.20M) to see how […]
DIGITEC Tool Measuring System Make tool setup a snap! Streamlining and optimizing production, calls for creating an efficient operational sequence when routing, milling and boring. That includes highly accurate tool measurement and setup, as after each tool change, the new tool data must be programmed into the machining center/router in order to maintain consistent machining results […]
Core Box Insert Router Bit – Round Grooves Made Easy Core box/ball nose bits are used for cutting round nosed grooves in fluting, reeding and veining in architectural millwork and column production, where a round bottom groove is needed. Our 4096 series insert router bit is designed to produce clean round nose profiles for core box […]
