The New Standard “TungMeister” Surpassing HSS Centers in High-Speed Machining and Long Tool Life:
For many years, machining sites have been using high-speed steel (HSS) center tools. Indeed, inexpensive and widely available HSS center drills have been a standard in many machining facilities. However, are you troubled by slow machining speeds, increased setup time due to frequent tool changes, and the burden placed on operators due to labor shortages? Additionally, each time you regrind the tool, the tool length changes, and having to re-preset or make offsets becomes a significant burden.
Now that there is a demand for higher efficiency at the worksite, traditional methods may feel limiting. The new solution to these challenges is the TungMeister center drill head.
What is TungMeister? An Innovative Tool Expanding the Possibilities of Cutting:
TungMeister is a head exchangeable endmill series developed by Tungaloy. Featuring flexibility through head exchange and high productivity, it can meet a wide range of machining needs.
This next-generation cutting solution provides consistently stable machining accuracy while minimizing downtime with easy tool changeovers. That’s TungMeister.
Approach to Solving Issues:
Issue 1: Slow Machining Speed
Issue 2: Short Tool Life and Frequent Replacements
Issue 3: Tedious Tool Offsets Due to Regrinding
Issue 4: Burden on Operators Due to Labor Shortages
Tungaloy delivers proven custom solutions for special shapes and challenging applications:
TungMeister’s center drill heads can also accommodate special machining conditions and materials. We have already provided various custom solutions for different industries and conditions.
Proven Performance: TungMeister Success Cases on the Shop Floor
Improving Productivity
A high-speed steel (HSS) center drill currently used for center drilling on motor shafts, a type of automotive part, had the issue of slow machining time. For new startup parts (motor shafts), we proposed and tested TungMeister. By increasing cutting speed and feed rate, machining efficiency was improved by 4.7 times, successfully addressing the challenge of reducing machining time.
Final Thoughts:
The TungMeister center drill head solves on-site issues by improving machining speed, extending tool life, and streamlining setup.
Its design, which eliminates the need for regrinding and maintains a constant tool length, reduces operator workload and maximizes productivity.
Why not move beyond conventional HSS tools and achieve both efficiency and quality with this next-generation machining solution?
