VariableMeister- Bracket- AH725
IMPROVED TOOL LIFE
During the machining of aircraft brackets made from Ti6Al4V, a competitor's special end mill had been used.
VariableMeister, with its variable pitch and variable lead design combined with the wear resistance of AH725, achieved double the tool life compared to the competitor’s product, leading to its adoption.
