FRANKEN Cut and Form
End mills to produce polished surfaces
New tool technology "Cut & Form"
Advantages:
Types of tools:
- Enables the production of polished surfaces in a single milling operation
- No rework of workpiece required
- Significant reduction of manufacturing costs
- Trimming visible surfaces in non-ferrous materials
- Production of design surfaces in medical technology, jewelry industry, food and electronics sector
Types of tools:
- Cutting diameter 6-12 mm
- Short and long design
- Enables surface roughness grades N1-N3
- Combination of cutting edges with pressure ridges for smoothing and compacting the material
