Thread mill tooling avoids titanium problems
Thread milling tooling is not only enabling a sub-contract machinist of orthopaedic components to avoid in situ broken tools and machine titanium parts in a single set-up 'with total confidence'.
The Vargus V6 thread turning insert promises revolutionary gains in productivity as well as halving tooling costs, owing to an innovative six-cutting corner system - double that of conventional systems, said Vargus - that can all be applied to the same application.
Vargus told manufacturingtalk.com that the V6 inserts, when compared with alternatives.
offer a 25% cost reduction per edge.
V6 inserts can be supplied in a wide variety of external/internal styles for partial 60 deg and 50 deg thread forms and the machining of threads at a multitude of pitches.
