The Rainford Precision stand at MACH will provide a FREE cutting tool giveaway as well as introducing two new brands to the UK. Rainford has been announced as the new distribution partners for both 6C Tools AG and BSQ Tech GmbH, the innovations will be presented for the first time on Stand 573 in Hall 20.
The tools from 6C Tools AG are manufactured by laser ablation for a sharper edge finish. The 6C range covers several drilling, milling and threading tools as well as tailored tools manufactured from PCD and PCBN. Designed for materials such as ceramics, tungsten carbide, zirconium, sapphire, glass and glass ceramics, the 6C portfolio introduces PCD drills, end mills, chamfer tools, ball nose mills and ball nosed polish tools and thread mills.
The 6C range is ideal for the optical, medical, electronics, jewellery and semi-conductor industries. The 6C tools are produced for the machining of small components and features. For example, the through coolant PCD drilling tools are available in 0.1mm increments from 0.3mm diameter to 3mm with 2XD and 3XD, 4XD and 5XD drills are also offered.
Completing the 6C Tools at MACH will be the micro thread mills available from 0.9 to 1.7mm for the threading of small holes in abrasive materials.
For engineers looking to improve productivity when machining aluminium, aluminium alloys, copper brass, plastics, PEEK and all other non-ferrous metals, Rainford will introduce the SwissCeraMill series from BSQ Tech GmbH that can increase tool life up to 25 times and improve productivity by 400% compared to conventional carbide cutting tools.
Manufactured from ceramic zirconium oxide, the SwissCeraMill end mills are available with a square end, corner radius and ball nose designations as well as Torus and special-purpose tools. The square-end tools are available from 1 to 20mm and with the chamfer tools, the 45-degree chamfer on the smallest tools starts at 0.05mm ranging up to 0.5mm on the 20mm diameter tools whilst corner radius tools start from 0.5 to 2mm. For profiling applications, the ball nosed series is available from 4 to 20mm diameter. As well as the Union Tool V-Series giveaway of 300 tools at MACH, the 6C Tools AG and BSQ Tech GmbH SwissCeraMill, Rainford Precision will also be demonstrating cutting tools from Louis Bélet, HOBE, DTS, Delmeco, Gloor, Osawa, Iwata and ATOM.
