The alloying of lead in metallic materials has a positive effect on the machining process. Due to the EU's REACH and ROHS regulations, the time of these easy-to-machine materials is over in many applications. However, reliable machining must still be possible in the future. With its broad tool portfolio, Paul Horn GmbH has a suitable solution for almost every application.

HORN has developed a chip-breaking geometry specifically for the Mini tool system types 108, 111 and 114. The sintered I-geometry is particularly aimed at machining materials with poor chip formation properties.

Grooving, parting-off and threading: Horn's DC circular milling system is universally applicable to numerous milling operations.

The new PCD milling programme from Horn, with a focus on productive and reliable machining of aluminium, includes a wide range of standard and special tools from end mills to complex and modular combination tools.

Nickel-based alloys, titanium, cobalt-chrome: Reliable machining of these problematic materials requires a high level of expertise on the part of the user. If the workpieces also require high surface quality, the use of specialised tools is essential. HORN addresses this need with a CBN tool system that is unique on the market.

Horn has added a new variant to the Supermini system especially for boring stainless steels. The optimised cutting geometry combined with the IG35 coating ensure high productivity and process reliability.

As part of its new PCD milling programme, Horn has developed the DM70 and DM90 series, which is specially designed for face milling and shoulder milling. The focus is on high efficiency milling and surface quality as well as burr-free milling.
