Atlas Cutting Tools, an all USA manufacturer of cutting tools, boasting a range of over 15,000 end mills, has improved tool performance through incorporating the latest grades of micro-grain carbide combined with the most advanced tool coatings, such as ALTiN & ZRN.

Terryville, Connecticut (PRWEB) Prior to the advent of Variable Index end mills, conventional end mills, once a particular RPM and/or depth of cut was reached, was much more likely to chatter often times with uncontrollable vibration which transferred onto the work piece resulting in a less than desirable finish at the very least.

Over recent years, Atlas Cutting Tools has looked for ways to break up the harmonics by deliberately creating variances in their tool geometries. 
Atlas Cutting Tools high performance series of carbide end mills feature the latest advances in end mill designs. The flutes are spaced unequally, which is called “variable indexing.” This dramatically reduces the harmonic vibration caused during the milling operations. This means that Atlas Cutting Tools end mills, when compared to general purpose end mills can typically be run at larger depths-of-cut (radially & axially), higher feed rates and RPM’s, along with an expectation of longer tool life… even at these increased machining parameters.

Additionally, with the evolution of today’s super alloys, Atlas Cutting Tools high performance series end mills meet these challenges with the latest of Coatings, engineered to withstand the intense heat often generated when machining these materials.

Nicholas Dabbo, director of Atlas Cutting Tools, commented “picking the perfect high performance end mill requires a thorough analysis of the application, including the material, required cuts and the particular type of machine planned for the job. At Atlas Cutting Tools we understand these factors and can offer helpful advice to our customers.”

Mr. Dabbo went on to say, “Atlas Cutting Tools stocks an extensive range of over 15,000 standard Carbide, Cobalt & HSS end mills, all USA manufactured to the highest standards. All end mills, as well as a wide range of various other cutting tools, are available on our web store, http://www.atlascuttingtools.com, with same day shipping on most items.”
