Setting up a machining and metal working shop with the ability to work to very tight tolerances, standards and specifications starts with having the right machines and the right tools.
Komet cutting tools have long been recognized for their quality in craftsmanship throughout many parts of the world. Their movement into the North American market has provided machine shops and metal working companies with the option to use these precision tools for drilling, threading, milling and machining.
Indexable Inserts
For precision cutting of all types of materials including a full range of metals and alloys, Komet cutting tools are considered one of the top brands. The indexable inserts the company offers are matched with the various types of tools to create the cutting ability required.
These can be used for stainless steels of all types, aluminum, cast iron and steel. They offer full active drilling control that can also include rough boring when large amounts of material need to be removed at high operational speeds.
The indexable inserts are designed to work with the tools to limit the presence of burrs, helping to decrease production time and reduce the steps in finishing the product. Different coatings are also available to work specifically with different types of requirements.
Innovative Designs and Tools
While all cutting tool manufacturers offer unique designs, Komet cutting tools offers some groundbreaking options that are very different from what the competition may offer. They provide several specialized tools for different operations, including high-speed feeds, plunge milling, drill slot milling and shank milling cutters.
Additionally, the company offers a full line of high-speed roughing tools to optimize the removal of large amounts of material. Features of this specialized Quatron line of milling and solid drills include a high volume of chip removal, increased cutting edges for faster cutting and the ability to use lower cutting pressure to accomplish the cutting action.
While these cutting tools are not inexpensive, they also had additional features that make them a cost-saving consideration. They are easier on equipment, and they allow one pass boring. This is an important consideration with larger material removal requirements as it decreases wear and tear on equipment while also speeding up productivity.
For highly specialized types of metal cutting needs, particularly for us in cutting plastics, graphite and aluminum Komet also offers a full line of nano diamond coated cutters. These are ideal for cutting complex shapes with precision and detail not possible with other types of cutting tools.
