S-Carb APR
Developed and engineered for high power, high
efciency machining of aluminium aerospace structural
parts (i.e. ribs, spars) and their equivalent. Material
removal rates of 550 cubic inches achievable, dependent
on machine.
S-Carb APF
Developed and engineered for high-feed nishing of thin
wall aluminium sections typically on aerospace ribs. Vast
reduction in machining times, with straighter walls and
superior nishes compared to waterlining.
VALUE AT THE SPINDLE
Design and engineering ensure
outstanding performance in a
variety of aluminum applications.

'One Hit'
• 4 ute unique variable geometry
reduces vibration and allows
nishing of thin walls in one pass
• Through coolant design
• Polished utes for superior
nishes
• Signicant reduction
in cycletimes
Typical Method:
High-speed
waterline nishing,
multiple passes at
numerous levels to
produce acceptable
thin walls
APF Method:
High speed nishing
at full depth without
wall distortion
• 3 ute design for high feed
power roughing
• High feed direct plunge ability
• Through coolant design
• Polished ute design to
maximize chip evacuation
Dramatic increase in productivity versus
the high speed waterline nishing
method, which multiple passes are made
to produce acceptable thin walls.
Superior metal removal rate
achievement over competition.
