The Quickgrind Gladiator Wins Battle Against Hard Material Challenges

For the 3D machining and contour milling of steel and hardened steels, Quickgrind has introduced its latest high-performance tooling line, the Gladiator range of 2-flute ball nose end mills.

The Gladiator can be applied to rough and finish operations on a wide range of materials where manufacturers produce complex contoured shapes. The unique geometry and material substrate provide high performance machining in all industrial sectors, especially the mould & die industry.  Suitable for rough and finish machining of complex surfaces and features, the Gladiator is perfect for steels, stainless steels, Ni-alloys, titanium, PH materials, tool steel and cast iron.

Having the capability to effectively machine such a diverse range of material with impressive performance characteristics, the Gladiator can increase productivity and metal removal rates by running at particularly high speeds and feeds. This is supported by Quickgrind’s range of coatings that aid chip flow and give the series a high wear resistance. This coating technology also reduces machining forces and increases tool life whilst the innovative geometry design ensures an optimally high level of stability with enhanced chip flow. This is particularly the case when machining hard materials. For further details on the Gladiator, please contact Quickgrind.
