Mikron Tool unveils high-performance hardmetal tools for titanium and delicate components
October 7, 2024
Mikron Tool, based in Agno, Switzerland, has introduced three new solid hardmetal tools. The company has added the high-performance bit CrazyDrill Titanium TN/TK for all types of titanium and two high-performance mills, CrazyMill Cool CF and CrazyMill Cool SF, specially designed for delicate components.
The CrazyDrill Titanium TN/TK microdrill has been developed especially for drilling titanium alloys, including pure titanium, at diameters from 0.2 to 2 millimetres and depths of 3 x d and 6 x d. It can already be used from 15 bar internal cooling, so a high-pressure cooling lubricant system is not necessary.
The CrazyMill Cool CF (Chatter-Free) is a high-performance micro mill designed for very high machining rates and is reported to be capable of handling very challenging, delicate component structures. Its specific cutting geometry, combined with a dynamic milling process, makes it the ideal mill for delicate, thin-walled parts or parts that are not stable when clamped, which is particularly common in the medical field (bone plates), aerospace industry (structural components), and watch industry.
The CrazyMill Cool SF (Super Finishing) has been developed as a super-finishing mill that produces milled surfaces at a grinding or polishing level of quality, with roughness of less than Ra 0.3. This greatly reduces the effort required for polishing. The CrazyMill Cool SF also produces excellent surface quality of less than 0.3 µm in (chromium) steel, lead-free brass, copper, cobalt-chromium, and Inconel.
