EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Test Cuts Demonstrate Benefits of Makino’s ADVANTiGE Technology
This presentation provides several detailed part machining examples, including a pylon spar, edge frame and frame component, as well as various cutting techniques that are being used to make the T4 machining center even more productive. Each of the before and after part samples illustrate the ability of ADVANTiGE to provide four times the productivity and double the tool life in titanium machining.
Several high pressure, high volume coolants were tested on roughing, semi-finishing and finishing applications and are also demonstrated in this presentation. Tool wear and tool life are closely monitored and reported, ultimately showing the increase in tool life that Makino’s ADVANTiGE technology affords, an important component in reducing operational costs.
By breaking through these conventional limitations of low metal removal and limited tool life, Makino’s ADVANTiGE technology provides a degree of machining efficiency that no other Titanium technology has offered in the past.
