In this live episode of Bourbon With The Editor™, host Dennis Spaeth is joined by Joe Magee of Vargus USA for a spirited conversation featuring new tooling solutions from the latest Vargus catalog. While sipping Old Bones Single Barrel Rye—an uncut, 133.4-proof whiskey from Backbone Bourbon Company—the two dive into the cutting-edge innovations redefining thread turning, milling, and solid carbide tooling.​

Experience over 13,000 head and shank combinations for your endmilling operations with Tungaloy’s TungMeister. Maximize productivity with 45 different geometries of indexable heads paired with steel, carbide, or tungsten shanks.

Thread mills present several advantages over traditional taps in manufacturing. They offer greater versatility, allowing for deeper threading into holes and reducing the risk of tool breakage. Proper feed rates are crucial for optimal performance, and using a code generator can enhance efficiency. Overall, thread mills serve as a more effective and cost-efficient solution for various threading applications.

The flat machining of bi‐metal surfaces or milling applications involving an interrupted cut can present challenges to PCD or carbide milling cutters. Inserts may chip during the milling process, resulting in high machining costs & elevated levels of sub‐standard or rejected parts. ElectroMill® produces high quality, flat milled surfaces, even if an interrupted cut is present or multiple materials are to be machined simultaneously. It effectively replaces expensive, complex cutters in high volume applications like high strength alloys, stainless steel, ceramics, cast iron, fiberglass pipe, composites and aluminum. Benefits include high stock removal rates, stress-free cutting action, extended tool life, industry standard adapter mountings and milling cutting dimensions.

Much like professional hockey with its power, speed, and grace, so too were some of technologies, techniques, and even milled items showcased at the OPEN MIND Technologies booth at IMTS 2024.

Saint-Gobain Abrasives has released the newest generation of Norton Abrasive's Paradigm wheels for the cutting tool market that feature a new high-performance grain for higher material removal rates, improved wheel life, better finishes, and reduced overall cost per part.

With barely a touch, the multi-axis FlexArm REM-24D electronic tapping arm with a multi-position head moved gracefully around the part, making it easy to tap a part where needed and helping to eliminate operator fatigue and reduce the possibility of repetitive motion injuries.

Tungaloy expands its TungForceRec shoulder milling cutter series with size 18 inserts, featuring a reverse-positive design and V-bottom structure for enhanced durability, rigidity, and reduced cutting resistance. Tungaloy’s TungForceRec delivers reliable, cost-effective solutions for versatile machining applications.

PENTACUT-27 is a 5 cutting edge form tool that provides a highly consistent and economical approach to the forming operation. The blanks come in widths of 0.394”, 0.591” and 0.787”. Insert index is simple, accurately retaining insert position when renewing the cutting edge.

If you’re cutting in traditional tool paths and looking for faster, better or longer end mill performance -- look no further than the POW-R-FEED M934.

In a booth full of technology from multi-sensor vision systems, video-based inspection and measurement systems, and even old-school optical comparators, it was a small touchscreen indicator that packed a lot of punch.
