Switching to a new coolant earlier this year has provided Toronto, ON-based Viking Engineering & Tool Co. Ltd. with substantial cost savings.

A new methodology developed by Seco Tools, Fagersta, Sweden (secotools.com) addresses the long-standing dilemma of increasing both the wear resistance and toughness of a cutting insert at the same time.

Products
Seco Tools Canada has announced its new grade MP3000, designed to be the first choice for customers who want optimal performance in milling steel and tool steels with relatively thin average chip thickness.
ISCAR has expanded its HELITURN Lay Down family and application range with new inserts and tools, produced with the new SUMO TEC grades.
Seco Tools Canada has introduced its new Square 6 shoulder milling cutter with trigonal inserts with six cutting edges to boost productivity and lower the cost per edge, delivering parts for less.
WIDIA has engineered the new TN5120 grade specifically for maximum performance in medium to rough machining of all ductile and gray cast iron workpieces.  Suitable for both dry and wet machining as well as interrupted and non-interrupted cuts, TN5120 provides improved productivity by reducing cycle times and yielding the possibility to increase speeds and feeds, or where limited by underpowered equipment, can provide longer tool life.
