“Anybody can use this type of tool because it can cut every single type of material.”

And with runs of up to 1,000 metres in titanium, the numbers back that up. MTDCNC’s Joe Reynolds invites Mark Warrington of Mitsubishi Materials for an exciting Technical Corner to explore a smarter take on chip splitting for trochoidal milling. The VQ Chip Splitter that’s available from 6mm to 20mm, with a zero-micron smooth coating developed entirely in-house in Japan.

Less heat. Smaller chips. Longer tool life. Across every material you throw at it.
