Die and mould makers expect high process and product expertise from their cutting tools manufacturer. This is because the tool life of the moulds to be created and the precision of the moulded parts are extremely important for competitiveness in mass production. Therefore, they require their tools to offer the highest levels of precision, a long tool life, and – above all – process reliability.
It is precisely these aspects that make MAPAL successful in sectors such as the automotive industry, machine engineering and the aerospace industry. Now the precision tool manufacturer is also offering efficient and economical solutions for the complete machining process in the die & mould sector. Versatile and precise high-performance tools and special tool holders with narrow contours and a precise radial run-out minimise polishing effort and reworking thanks to a constant surface finish in the milling process.
