Did you know that with the transition to lead-free brass, many turning workshops are seeing a 10% increase in non conformity and a 25% increase in tool wear?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The absence of lead results in long, hard chips that subject both tools and processes to stress.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here are 4 possible solutions<\/strong> to avoid this problem:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. Specific clearance and rake angles<\/strong>
    If the machine is not sufficiently rigid, the clearance and rake angles need to be reduced.
    <\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. Coolant channels<\/strong>
    Targeted cooling limits deformation and can also reduce swarf by up to 15%.
    <\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. Increased drilling diameters<\/strong>
    \u201cLead-free\u201d brass tends to shrink in the final stages of the machining process: an increase in diameter of a few hundredths can avoid undersized holes and tolerance defects.
    <\/li>\n\n\n\n
  4. High-rigidity chucks<\/strong>
    Using high-rigidity chucks allows us to produce tools with more wear-resistant materials. <\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    At MadTools<\/strong>, our extensive experience<\/strong> in processing lead-free brass means we can design tools that guarantee:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    • lower levels of nonconformity<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • lower costs per item<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
