Ceratizit has released its latest Up2Date supplementary catalogue, which includes a number of updated tools, product supplements and totally new tooling solutions. The first four-edged high-feed drill First up is the announcement of the WTX HFDS four-edged high-feed drill. Claimed by Ceratizit to be the first and only four-edged high-feed drill on the market, its impressive performance and tool life when used to cut steel and cast iron demonstrate that the fourth cutting edge is not just for show. Data from Ceratizit indicates that machining time with the WTX HFDS is reduced by up to 66% when compared to standard two- and three-edged high-speed and high-feed drills. Cost-effective machining of Ni-based alloys Those machining nickel-based alloys will be familiar with the ‘difficult to machine’ description due to the challenges these materials pose to machinists and tools. Taking the unpredictability out of working with these extremely hard and high tensile materials, Ceratizit has developed MonsterMill NCR. These solid carbide milling cutters feature Dragonskin coating and a special tool geometry precisely tailored to machining Ni-based alloys – which has a positive impact on tool wear to achieve above-average tool life and ensure a stable machining process. Ex-stock availability for drilling holes up to 9 x D The Komet KUB Centron has been a tried-and-tested drilling tool for many years and is ideal for efficient and process-secure drilling in hole depths from 4 x D to 9 x D. This cost-effective, indexable insert drill with exchangeable head is now available ex-stock from Ceratizit. This modular drill is highly cost-effective, representing a major benefit to users. The drill also has high dimensional stability, straightness and maximum process security, even with a maximum hole depth of 9xD. The latest Up2Date catalogue is available through your local Ceratizit UK & Ireland technical sales engineer or by calling the free service line on 0800 073 2073.
