What Are Chamfer Mills? Chamfer mills do not have blades along the edges, only at the tip. These are used to cut angled edges. The cutting blades on each chamfer mill are called “flutes.” The more flutes on the mill, the more delicate the cut. But fewer flutes on the mill remove more material each turn, for faster production. Balancing …

Part of the designing and engineering process is to determine what physical properties the part needs and the best metal chose to provide those requirements. Having metal alloys heat treated, either before or after machining, can immensely improve key physical properties. Heating treatments can add to the hardness of the metal, its strength, or its machinability. When are heat treatments …

Precision machining is a subtractive process used in cases where material needs to be removed from a raw product to create the finished product. Precision machining can be used to create a wide variety of products, items, and parts for any number of different objects and materials. These parts usually require tight tolerances variation from nominal dimensions and from part …
