Turning tool for HRSA material machining
Sandvik Coromant
Turning hardened steel rather than grinding it offers many advantages.
As a single-point contact method, HPT can easily accomplish complex contours without need for the costly form wheels that multi-point contact grinding requires. Similarly, HPT permits machining of multiple operations with just one set-up.
The result is excellent positional accuracy, reduced part handling and less risk of part damage. The environment also benefits from HPT as the technique eliminates grind waste and does not require coolant.
All in all, HPT reduces machine tool costs and gives better production control, quicker throughput and higher quality. Add these plus points together and the cost-savings brought about by switching to HPT are considerable.
