Not a Small Challenge
Cutting Tools for
Miniature Dental and
Medical Parts
Successful development of innovative and dynamic parts in today’s
miniature dental and medical components industry presents
a formidable and equally dynamic challenge to cutting tool
manufacturers.
The fast-growing field is driven by enterprising The materials for producing medical screws and
orthopedic surgeons and dental professionals implants are titanium superalloys, although stainless
together with medical device manufacturers, steel hard materials are utilized when a special ratio
who work in cooperation with machine and tool of depth of cut to chip thickness is required. These
manufacturers to transform their inventions into materials are gummy and cause built - up edge
parts that are revolutionizing medical and (BUE), which tends to wear down edge sharpness,
dental procedures. while the high temperatures generated during chip
breaking shorten tool life and damage surface quality.
ISCAR applies unique geometries, tools, and grades
to resolve these issues and create custom tool
assemblies for the complex series of operations
involved in machining miniature medical parts, such
as dental screws and hip joint replacement implant
components.
