Cutting Tools Resist Heat, Hold Size
With so much happening in a busy show year between NPE2018, Amerimold 2018 and IMTS 2018, MoldMaking Technology is revisiting some of the technology that was on display. In case you missed it: At IMTS 2018, Crystallume had its Demon line of cutting tools, which is designed for extended cuts in difficult materials.
Useful for moldmaking applications, Crystallume’s Demon line of cutting tools is designed for extended cuts in difficult materials. Long tool life reduces the need to switch tools midway through the application. According to the company, the tools generate very little heat, hold size well, cut parts within tolerance and reduce the need for polishing. They also feature a coating designed to improve high-temperature stability for machining hardened steels.
