Vargus Tooling UK has recently supplied specially developed indexable insert milling cutters to a manufacturer of components for steam turbine engines. The special grade of carbide that withstands high temperatures generated during the milling of high quality heat resistant steel, was developed by Innotool of Germany, whose products and production engineering support services are represented in the UK by Vargus Tooling UK.
