Kennametal launches app for iPad New Kennametal application features animations and demonstrations of the company’s technologies for machining and industrial processes. In particular, the app includes: product animations that provide visual representations of processes with direct links to information; a navigation map with dropdown menus and supplemental information, including expandable and customis-
able, charts and graphs; user-driven navigation with selectable data, and demonstrations and application videos providing valuable, realworld experience; pictures of the tooling technologies in actual use. The “Kennametal Innovations” app is free to download from the iTunes App Store. Kennametal plans to release a version of the app for Android devices in the future.
Mott Corp’s filters are now available in niobium. Mott Corp says that its porous metal components and filters are now available in a range of refractory metal alloys, including zirconium, titanium, tungsten, molybdenum, and niobium. Mott Corp can design porous components or entire filter assemblies using refractory metals to meet various flow control or filtration requirements, to meet tolerances and to a sub-micron
particulate removal. Porous components in refractory metals have melting points from 2400°C to over 3400°C and thus can meet demanding filtration or flow control requirements. They are also refractory metals are electrically conductive and chemically inert and can be a suitable material of construction for many applications where higher operating temperatures are critical.
Kennametal’s new app is suitable for iPads.
Ceratizit extends milling range Carbide expert Ceratizit has extended its MaxiMill HFC milling system to include diameters starting from 16 mm. Operators will now be able to machine small components with maximum feed rates, improving cutting performance and decreasing machining time, Ceratizit said. The patented geometry of the insert guarantees
extremely even cutting forces on the cutting edge, following extensive FEM (Finite Element Method) calculations on the strength. Due to the even distribution of the cutting forces, the cutting edge resists the high stress created during profile milling. The low cut depths of the MaxiMill HFC are combined with a high feed rate of up to 3 mm/tooth.

In tests, when machining a forged die, MaxiMill HFC was able to quadruple the cutting performance while also reducing the machining time by 50%. As dies are used several times, the operator must constantly finish-mill the profile. The more often this happens the more the material densifies. It becomes harder and thus more difficult to
machine. The HyperCoat grades from Ceratizit offers a suitable solution for these challenges. The inserts have a high cutting edge stability and long tool life, even under unfavourable conditions. Ceratizit’s MaxiMill HFC cutters are now available as shell milling cutters, end mills and cutters with threaded end.
