Requirements in machiningContinuous process chain in carbide machining
A continuous process chain is indispensable in carbide machining. At a seminar held by a machine tool manufacturer, experts presented practical solutions to this challenge.
Carbide workpiece produced by milling, drilling and grinding on a Röders RXP 501. Total machining time 5 h 54 min 51 s, surface roughness Ra 0.015-0.024 μm, roundness of the bore (Ø 4.5 mm) 0.6 μm. This machining was programmed with VISI and milled with tools from Six Sigma Tools with diameters of 0.7 mm. The outer flanks were created by coordinate grinding. © Klaus Vollrath
