Standard 4 Flute End Mills vs Dedicated Roughing End Mills for Hardened Steel

Leave a Comment / Heat Treated Steel Processing / By

In our daily work with shop supervisors in the US and Europe, we constantly hear the same frustration: “We’re roughing H13 mold steel at 54 HRC. Using a standard 4-flute flat-end mill, the tool tip chips before we even finish half a cavity, and the spindle load spikes alarmingly.” As CNC cutting tool engineers with […]

Graphite Cavity Milling for Mold Industry: Precision Applications of Graphite Machining System in Mold Manufacturing

Leave a Comment / Graphite Machining System / By

In practical mold production, manufacturers with mature EDM equipment often struggle during the electrode fabrication stage. This bottleneck is highly evident during graphite cavity milling for complex profiles, deep-cavity structures, and high-precision electrodes. We recently consulted for a precision injection mold manufacturer facing severe issues with large-scale electrode fabrication. The edges of their graphite electrodes
