High Speed Milling

Dynamic and highly precise

A specialization in CNC milling is HSM, or High-Speed Milling. Unlike conventional milling, HSM uses much higher spindle speeds and feed rates. However, the average chip thickness is significantly lower, which positively affects the tool life. Cutting forces are lower, and heat is better dissipated through the chips. This offers numerous advantages. With HSM, we can achieve higher surface quality and precision. Additionally, it is possible to efficiently machine thin-walled materials, as HSM generates fewer vibrations.

At Tumag, we use HSM milling for machining complex components that must meet superior surface quality and dimensional accuracy. Hardened steel up to 60HRC (Rockwell hardness) can be milled effortlessly on these machines. Additionally, the production of EDM electrodes, in graphite, copper, or elkonite, for use in our EDM machines, takes place in the HSM department.

With our five-axis OPS Ingersoll machines, we can mill with an accuracy of up to 3 microns. These machines can reach a spindle speed of up to 42,000 rpm
