Greenleaf--and only Greenleaf--was the choice when a major jet engine manufacturer sought new engineering technology for cutting tool design, machining capability, and process assistance that will ultimately lead to millions of dollars in productivity savings for that customer. Greenleaf custom-designed special tooling is in even greater demand today by manufacturers who are adopting with increasing frequency the latest advanced multitasking machine technology. This trend now accounts for more than 50% of Greenleaf's yearly cutting tool solutions. Greenleaf’s customers are found in all major segments of the metalcutting industry, including aerospace, gas turbine, energy, oil and gas, steel, medical, roll turning, automotive, machine tool, and rail. They depend on the ability of Greenleaf’s engineered products to provide optimal performance on a wide range of materials under the most rigorous metalcutting conditions. We have proven results in every application segment.


Total Team Commitment Greenleaf’s passion for excellence can be seen in our


mastery of materials science, R&D, our advanced toolholder manufacturing, and ceramic insert production from design to sintering, as well as advanced PVD and CVD coating technology. A seemingly impossible application solution may involve engineering totally new grades as well as applying high- pressure coolant and advanced coatings to develop the heat control and shear characteristics required by today’s materials.


Greenleaf Technology And Application Expertise Can Maximize Performance Of Legacy Machine Technology Even At Lower Speeds.


Every project brought to Greenleaf begins through the


diligent interaction of our Sales and Service Engineers with our customers or from a direct request from a customer.


How We Work The starting point for this or any project is gathering


information at the customer site by the local Greenleaf Sales and Service Engineer. It may or may not include customer drawings, machine and fi xture data, material specs and existing constraints, deadlines, or diffi culties. But the more complete the information, the better and quicker a resolution. Typical information includes scope of work, part drawing or model, raw material type (forging, casting, bar), level of machining capability and fi xturing availability, programming resources and fi nished part. Once information is gathered, our Application Engineers and/or the Engineering department communicate with the Sales and Service Engineers to review the project information and goals. At every step of the process, our customers can interact with any and all of our Greenleaf team to ensure that solutions are consistent with machining resources available and timelines agreed upon, or to resolve unforeseen changes in the project. It isn’t uncommon for us to recommend that new high-speed machining capability be added to optimize performance of our highly engineered whisker-reinforced ceramic or coated carbide inserts. But Greenleaf technology and application expertise can maximize performance of legacy machine technology even at lower speeds.
