On the 30th and 31st of October, ITC will again be exhibiting at the Advanced Engineering Exhibition on Stand T171 in Hall 3 at the NEC Birmingham. The latest addition to the ITC portfolio, a new catalogue highlighting microtools from Karnasch, will be on show. The range starts at 0.05mm and reaches 6mm in diameter with the latest coatings applied. The range targets various material groups, including aluminium, steel, hardened steels, exotic materials and composites.

The milling geometries include tools with sharp corners, radiused corners, and ball noses. All geometries have exacting tolerances designed for high-value mould and die applications. A new range of micro drills and micro threadmills are also included. The threadmill sizes start at M0.6, continue up to M3, and are available for ferrous and non-ferrous materials. There is also a diamond-coated range for composites and graphite.

There are three drilling ranges, including through coolant, starting at 0.80mm diameter and going up to 2.95mm diameter, with different length versions. There is also a solid range from 0.10mm diameter up to 3mm diameter, again with differing lengths. There is also a range of pilot drills to support the Micro range.

The new catalogue will also include micro concave corner rounding cutters starting with a radius of 0.10mm diameter and going up to 3mm radius—a range of 250-degree Lollipop cutters from 1mm to 8mm diameter Ball. Also on display will be some ITC and Widia products, specially mounted on BIG Daishowa high-accuracy MEGA Micro chucks. ITC will stress BIG Daishowa’s advantages when successfully machining components that require the best tooling and workholding. Talk to one of the ITC experts on Stand T171 at Advanced Engineering 2024 to learn more.
