Quickgrind manufactures aerospace parts… fast!
In this video we are showing a typical aerospace component. In it we have tried to replicate a proper aerospace component as much as we can, without showing anybody’s IP.
It’s been said many times, the conical barrel tools are not the tool for everything, but when used correctly, and with the correct application the time savings are immense – sometimes up to 90%
Some people could say why not the use a long edge endmill? And the answer is that you can of course, but if you’ve got a pocket that hang it over a certain angle, the conical barrel tools all day long, just for the time saved.
The conical barrel tool in this demo is being used for semi finishing and finishing the walls and finishing the fillet rads. So it is using the really large radius of the tool, and the tip of the tool as well.
This video perfectly demonstrates the solution if you need conical barrel milling Quickgrind has a solution for you.
