How to Maximize High-Efficiency Machining

The POW•R•PATH IP Series of cutting tools from IMCO use 7-flute configurations that take full advantage of continuous tool paths for maximum performance.

Posted: April 7, 2016

POW•R•PATH IP Series cutting tools from IMCO are designed exclusively to maximize the benefits available with high-efficiency machining methods. They feature 7-flute configurations for amazing finishes. IP Series tools are made with a stronger, larger-diameter core for straighter walls in deep cuts and superior strength for longer continuous cutting at high feed rates. POW•R•PATH IPC7 and IPC9 Series add the powerful CMS for reliable chip evacuation in virtually any material, making it the ultimate cutting tool with universal applications.

IMCO Carbide Tool Inc. (Perrysburg, OH) has launched the new POW•R•PATH IP Series of cutting tools, a breakout new line designed exclusively to maximize the benefits available with high-efficiency machining methods, the company announced.

While high-efficiency machining is great at improving productivity and tool life, POW•R•PATH IP Series tools are designed to take those improvements even higher, explained Perry Osburn, the president and chief executive officer of IMCO. “Our new designs are made only for high-efficiency machining,” stated Osburn. “Special design features take full advantage of continuous tool paths to get maximum performance out of every tool. Results achieved in our test lab have been surprising, even for us.”

POW•R•PATH IP cutting tools include two series: POW•R•PATH IPT7 Series and POW•R•PATH IPC Series with the special Chip Management System (CMS). Both series feature 7-flute configurations for amazing finishes. IP Series tools are made with a stronger, larger-diameter core for straighter walls in deep cuts and superior strength for longer continuous cutting at HEM’s high feed rates. POW•R•PATH IPC7 and IPC9 Series add the powerful CMS for reliable chip evacuation in virtually any material, making it the ultimate cutting tool with universal applications.
