out,” said Larson. “Right now for the tool/spindle interface we prefer the HSK 125, which is a 5" [127-mm] connection and we’ve been working with Kennametal to evaluate their KM4X 125 connection’s performance.”
Faster Metal Removal Lifts Capacity Constraints Michael Standridge, aerospace industry specialist, Sandvik Coromant (Fair Lawn, NJ) said, “our custom- ers are asking us to fi nd new ways to increase productivity, especially in milling structural components without sacrifi cing process security. As a result we’re targeting applications with heavy roughing to exceed 20 in.3

of metal removal. High-pressure cool- ant systems that enhance fl ow rate at the cutting edge are extremely impor- tant in machining titanium. With all the heat and the need for lubricity, coatings must withstand high temperatures to protect the insert from breaking down prematurely. Better adhesion to the substrate and less variation in our coat- ing structure is limiting chipping and crack propagation using a mix of CVD and PVD coatings.” “We offer our customers multiple solutions from machining strategy and process development for a particular material or component feature, to cutting tool applications and design, as well as full turnkey services that include complete and verifi ed CAM programming. At our facility we can demonstrate the latest techniques that show how to get the most productiv- ity out of cutting tools and processes, developing solutions outside of a customers’ facility that can then be seamlessly introduced into their pro- duction,” said Standridge. Many factors affect tool perfor-
mance, robust machine and spindle interface being two of them. The further
away the cutting tool is from the spindle and machine, the greater the potential for issues like vibration, radial run out and defl ection. Many aerospace component designs require long tool assemblies. Typically, these assemblies are lacking
