Abstract
To meet the stringent demands on today’s manufacturing, cutting tool systems had to be developed with innovative design features built-in. In nearly all applications involving non-ferrous metals, these cutting tools are diamond tipped. They dramatically outperform any other “conventional” or substitute cutting material. They can be run up to 50% faster than carbide grades and simultaneously even extend tool life up to 10-fold while improved workpiece quality, increased productivity and reduced production costs are just a bonus.
