At IMTS 2014 in Chicago, LACH DIAMOND exhibited for the very first time the »Cool Injection-Plus« PCD milling cutter with the »Cool Injection« cooling system and the chip controller »Plus« for controlled HSC machining of aluminum components.

The solution to combine the »Cool Injection« process – during which the cooling jet is guided by a PCD surface – and the chip controller »Plus« into one single tool proved to be ideal for manufacturing. Now it is possible to work with extremely high cutting speeds and feeds required for HSC machining.

»Cool Injection-Plus« Monoblock milling cutters can be manufactured with the highest possible number of PCD cutting edges because chips produced during machining are immediately diverted away from the work area. Both, work piece and cutting edge, benefit from this procedure. Due to the fact that chips don’t need to be “cut” multiple times, optimal surface quality, precision as well as maximized tool life of the PCD milling cutter are the results.

Overall, the newly developed PCD Monoblock milling cutter »Cool Injection-Plus« already achieved a reduction of cycle times in the automotive industry – e. g. in the production of engines and gearbox housings – of over 50%.

»Cool Injection-Plus« PCD milling cutters will be delivered ready for use – no time intensive adjustments are necessary at all – and can be immediately put onto the machine.

LACH DIAMOND »Cool Injection-Plus« Monoblock milling cutters feature a very high number of teeth for maximum performance in aluminum machining, particularly in the automotive industry, and are manufactured with diameters up to 100 mm.

The new PCD cartridge milling cutter »dia-blue-power« is available for diameters from ø 125 to 450 mm.
