The FixReam high-performance reamer series made of solid carbide cover a wide range of applications and have already proven themselves many times in steel and cast machining.

Mining is as old as human history itself. Even during the Stone Age, people mined mineral resources – in the form of flints.

MAPAL is launching a new, particularly economical system of replaceable head reamers – the Press-to-Size-Reamer (PSR) – for customers who manufacture in large series. Thanks to the new development, the costs per bore are reduced massively.

Since November 2020, the first two series of MAPAL chucks have been available in the new design which is already winning awards.

During boring processes with large depths or unstable machining conditions, vibration often occurs. This vibration degrades the quality of the bore and has a negative effect on the life of the tool.

To ensure reliable chip breaking, MAPAL has developed a new chip guiding stage for machining steel.

MAPAL customers rely on the FaceMill-Diamond PCD face milling cutter for face milling work at high volumes, on unstable parts and in the HPC (high performance cutting) sector. With its solid steel tool body and the permanently brazed PCD cutting edges, it achieves top feed rates and material removal rates that are second to none.

Whether they’re producing turbochargers, steering knuckles or cylinder blocks, customers can mill their cast and steel parts considerably more cost-effectively with the radial insert milling programme from MAPAL than with the previously available solutions. Since the product launch in 2018, there have been a large number of measurable successes resulting from the use of the tools in the series production.
