The stabilization of the machining process in this way provides wider machine utilization for face and shoulder milling, especially in long overhangs and will boost the capabilities of long reaching tools.
Reducing vibration in often tricky situations provides the confidence needed to increase the cutting parameters without compromising work piece quality.
This enables the achievement of greater machining success with the CoroMill 390 - including improved component surface finish and longer tool life.
