High performance end mills
Sandvik Coromant launches a new series of end mills delivering high performance and security in side
and pocket milling operations. e CoroMill Plura HFS (high feed side milling) end mills are developed for steel and stainless steel applications, but they can also enhance productivity in di cult-to-machine materials such as heat-resistant super alloys (HRSAs) and titanium. e CoroMill Plura HFS utilizes the complete cutting length of the end mill and achieves a high metal removal rate with smaller diameters. e result is lower tools costs and improved overall productivity. CoroMill Plura HFS features include: an unequal helix ute design that assures a variable angular pitch in every axial section to increase the chatter-free material removal rate; an asymmetrical chip-breaker pro le that improves chip evacuation and minimizes the risk of edge chipping and tool breakage; and a conical core shape with a smaller core diameter at the face to improve chip evacuation capabilities, with a larger core diameter at depth of cut maximum (APMX) for maximum stability. e grade for the CoroMill Plura HFS is GC1740 which was developed to resist bending forces generated when using
a 4xDC length of cut. is is needed when the component has a large depth of cut and cutting width. Furthermore, Sandvik Coromant’s Tailor Made o er includes CoroMill Plura end mills
for manufacturers or machine shops needing a 5xDC length of cut.

3D inspection tags
Eti ex Corp, a manufacturer of industrial labels and inspection tags, received its second patent in relation to its molded tags. Eti ex already holds a patent for its unique RFID tags. e newest patent for their line of Data Matrix tags is based on the unique three dimensional construction resulting in tags that are extremely durable - making them ideal for outdoor and harsh environments. e new tags allow the user to record information on the tag even while it is installed - so it can be used to permanently display and record inspections over a multi-year period. ey can also be con gured for product identi cation, serial numbers, and any speci c data that needs to be recorded. e 3-D construction and UV resistant formulation is designed to last in abrasive environments like construction equipment, marine use, utility companies, and lifting slings. e two patents can be combined to make the tag RFID enabled which allows the tag to electronically record the information utilizing RFID software, while also visually displaying the information so anyone can also see and record information as well.
