Solid Carbide Tooling (Standard Range)

Somta's Solid Carbide Tooling Standard Range is a comprehensive family of solid carbide stub and jobber length drills, 2 and 4 flute end mills and ball nose end mills, in both regular and long series. This Somta carbide tooling range is manufactured from high grade micrograin tungsten carbide, with a physical vapour deposition (PVD) Balzers coated and uncoated version as standard. The combination of solid tungsten carbide substrate with thin film PVD surface coatings, gives significant benefits with vastly improved cycle times on a broad range of work materials. This range of tooling is most suited to CNC applications, particularly when machining hard and abrasive materials, or when used on softer materials like fibreglass, brass and plastics. For specialised production applications, Somta is able to design and manufacture custom tooling to customer specifications. Somta solid carbide tooling guarantees higher feed rates, superior surface finish and longer tool life, with the added value of local regrinding and recoating services.
