Development of an end mill made from a composite material based on rock flour
The main components of the cemented carbides used in conventional tool manufacturing are the raw materials tungsten and cobalt. Both are classified as critical raw materials due to their limited deposits, which are concentrated in just a few countries. The LithoMill research project therefore aims to develop a coated end mill made of a composite material based on readily available and environmentally friendly…
Innovative coated high-performance circular saw blades with replaceable interface for cutting softwood
The DuroCut project is developing an innovative high-performance circular saw blade for softwood cutting. The project is based on the development of an innovative tooth profile, a custom-designed coating for the saw teeth, and an interface between the saw teeth and the saw blade body that allows for efficient tooth replacement. The cutting…
