MACHINING TITANIUM ECONOMICALLY Machining titanium is fundamentally different from machining cast iron or steel. For economic results, tool technology and the process must be optimally designed. With its holistic understanding of the overall interrelationships in the machining of titanium, MAPAL is able to identify this optimum combination of precision and cost-effectiveness. The material properties

New face milling cutters for more sustainability in aluminium machining Optimum surface finish for every quantity When it comes to weight savings, aluminium is often the workpiece material of choice. Accordingly, in the automotive sector, for instance, many functional components are made from aluminium, such as cylinder heads, transmission housing, brakes, wheel carriers or
SHRINK UNITS ARE POWER GUZZLERS A strong argument for switching to hydraulic clamping is the high energy requirements for shrinking. In its own factory, MAPAL ascertained that a shrink unit that is used in three shifts per day can consume between 10,000 and 12,000 kilowatt hours per year. This corresponds to the electricity consumption
