Fenn showcases new tools and toolsetting at MACH (stand 5261)

1 min read

As UK agents for a number of European brands, Fenn is able to offer market leading tooling, tool management systems, inventory control systems, pre-setting, heat-shrink and balancing systems. MACH marks the première of Fenn’s Speedtwister trochoidal endmill and Ezset presetting machines.

At the show, the Maykestag Speedtwister, launched into the market in January 2016, has its first exhibition showing. Especially developed for speed trochoidal cutting, the Speedtwister is suitable for conventional and dynamic milling strategies. It offers cutting depths of up to 5xD, high tech coating technology and optimised tool geometry for perfect chip control. Combined with the trochoidal milling paths of modern CADCAM systems, offers substantially increased cutting speed and feed rates as opposed to conventional slot milling applications. It is suitable for both rouging and finishing, and in Universal and Inox ranges in both 3xD and 5xD, the Speedtwister is suitable for general steels up to approx. 50 HRc as well as stainless steels, Inconel and titanium.

As newly appointed UK agents for Ezset, Fenn will validate the benefits of presetting and offer customers the opportunity to see an Ezset IC2 tool presetting machine, which will be demonstrated throughout the exhibition. Manufactured in Germany, Ezset’s four-model range feature components such as Bosch pneumatics, THK guides and Heidenhain scales.

Special attention will also be paid during MACH to Fenn’s own UK manufactured brand of milling cutters: Fetoga. After launching its manufacturing facility back in 2000, Fenn has seen continued development and growth, and their reputation within the industry has been underpinned by the success of its Fetoga Solid Carbide Endmill range, which saw some new introductions in Fenn’s new solid carbide endmill catalogue during summer last year.

Although the Fetoga line boasts an impressive range of products, Fenn understands that many customers may have requests for non standard, bespoke tools. Fenn’s Custom Tool Division is dedicated to the design and manufacture of special tooling for the more unique applications customers encounter. On display will be a selection of specialist tooling with technical engineers onsite to discuss customer requirements.

Customers can also take advantage of special Fenn offers during the exhibition, including 10% off pre-setting machines ordered during MACH or within four weeks, tooling vouchers for customers opening new accounts and special discounts across standard products purchased during the event.
