The range is composed of screw-in, cylindrical- and arbor type cutter bodies from Φ25 to Φ50 mm diameters. The sharp AL geometry with a reliableRead more

Steel die: Best performance in tool life and reliability

Nikko Tools HF4Plus system delivered excellent performances in the milling of steel die. With a cutting speed slightly reduced the Nikko solution had reached about double tool life compared to the competitor. Customer target met!

RekPlus: optimal wear resistance in steel machining

Nikko RekPlus system proved higher reliability in milling of a steel sliding block , with a tool life increase of about 20% compared to the alternative solution. Moreover, the insert has been replaced after 15 passes for security reasons, but the wear was limited.

PCBN: Longer tool life on Grey Cast Iron

Nikko Tools PCBN insert was tested in the milling of an hydraulich distributor against a competitor with a ceramic insert and one with a coated carbide insert. Result: Nikko Tools PCBN insert tool life 3 times higher than competitors.

Double4Face: Shorted cycle time with a reduced cost

In milling a engine collector for automotive (material Grey Cast Iron), the system Nikko Tools Double4Face has performed a cycle time drastically reduced against the competitor, 52 vs 82 minutes, enabling also a significant cost reduction.
