Platinum Tooling Need Better Tool Life in Tough Materials? Heimatec's Internal Coolant Live Tools Might Be the Answer
If you’re in aerospace machining—or really any kind of high-performance metal cutting—you already know the battle: heat, chip control, tool wear, repeat. The hotter and harder the material, the more headaches you're dealing with. That’s exactly where Heimatec’s internal coolant live tools come into play.

Distributed in North America by Platinum Tooling, these tools are built with one job in mind—keeping things cool and consistent when you're cutting the tough stuff like titanium and Inconel.

So what’s the big deal with internal coolant?
Instead of relying on external coolant to hit the cutting zone (and hoping it gets there), Heimatec’s live tools send high-pressure coolant through the tool body and right to the cutting edge. That means better heat control, cleaner chips, and a serious boost in tool life. If you're chasing better finishes and tighter tolerances, this is a huge advantage—especially on longer cycle times or production runs.

Coolant-thru technology is often the answer for faster more productive cutting on many applications especially when drilling deep holes where chips and excess heat build-up.  Heimatec now offers high-pressure coolant-thru designs up to 1000psi on straight tools and 2000psi on 90-degree tools. High pressure internal coolant is also available on universal tools, multiple spindle tools, and speed increasers with up to 1:4 gear ratios at 24,000rpm.
​  
Built tough for real-world machining
These live tools aren't just about coolant—they're built to handle the abuse of daily production. They use high-precision ABEC 7 bearings, hardened and ground gears, and are balanced to run smoothly at high RPMs with minimal backlash. In short, they’re engineered for shops that run tight programs, day in and day out.

Save time with quick-change systems
If tool changes are killing your setup time, Heimatec has a few tricks up its sleeve. Their u-tec® system and HT Quick Change options let you swap tools fast without re-dialing everything in. You stay productive without sacrificing precision.

Works with the machines you're already running
​Whether you're running a DMG Mori, Okuma, Haas, Mazak—or something else entirely—Heimatec most likely has a live tool that drops right into your turret or BMT block. No special adapters. No headaches. Just solid compatibility.

Custom tools? Yeah, they do that too
Every job’s different. If you're doing deep hole drilling, unique milling paths, or have a funky part setup, Heimatec can build a tool specifically for your application. It’s not cookie-cutter—it’s whatever works best for how you machine.

If you're tired of pushing tools to the limit and watching your inserts burn up halfway through a cycle, Heimatec's internal coolant tools could be a real game-changer. Better cooling, stronger construction, faster setups—it’s all about giving your shop more uptime and fewer surprises.

OSG USA Announces the Release of the PHOENIX® PFDC Indexable Face Mill Cutter & Inserts for Non-Ferrous Materials
If you’re cutting aluminum or other non-ferrous materials and still pushing old tooling through the job, it’s time for an upgrade. OSG just rolled out something that’s going to make your finish look better, your cycle times shorter, and your inserts last longer – the new PHOENIX® PFDC Indexable Face Mill Cutter.

So, what’s the deal?
The PFDC is a face milling cutter purpose-built for non-ferrous materials – think aluminum alloys, copper, brass, and even plastics. OSG dialed in everything about this cutter for high-speed, high-efficiency machining without beating up your spindle or wasting time on post-processing.

Let’s break it down...
  • Lightweight Cutter Body = Spindle Friendly. You know how heavier cutters can stress your machine at higher RPMs? Not this one. The PFDC uses a lightweight aluminum alloy body that keeps vibrations down and lets you run faster without hammering your spindle bearings. Less weight, less wear, more uptime.
  • Highly Polished Inserts = Mirror-Like Finishes. The inserts are where this cutter really shines—literally. They’re polished to a near-mirror finish to reduce built-up edge (BUE), which means cleaner shearing and better chip evacuation. The result? You get finishes that might not even need a secondary operation. Your parts come off the mill clean and smooth, saving you time on the back end.
  • Single-Screw Clamping = Fast Changes, Tight TolerancesSwapping out inserts doesn’t need to be a headache. The PFDC uses a single-screw clamping system that holds tight, keeps things rigid under load, and still lets you change inserts quickly. No fussing around trying to get it aligned just right—it seats consistently every time.

Two Insert Grades to Cover Your Needs
  • PFGX: This one's your go-to for finishing. If you’re chasing a great surface finish, these are what you want in the pockets.
  • PFMX: Built more for roughing, these inserts take bigger bites without sacrificing surface integrity. You can get aggressive, remove material fast, and still stay on spec.

Who’s This For?
If you’re running aluminum wheels, housings, manifolds, or even just general non-ferrous parts, the PFDC should be on your radar. Whether you’re a job shop or a production house, it’s a solid choice for getting more parts off the machine, faster and cleaner.

Bottom Line: OSG isn’t playing around with this release.
The PFDC cutter is made for speed, longevity, and a top-tier finish in non-ferrous materials. If you're ready to stop fighting your tooling and start pushing your machines to do what they’re built for, it might be time to give this cutter a try.

Want to see if it fits your machines or get a test cut going? Reach out—we’ll help you get one spinning on your spindle.

The ADO-TRS ‘Triple Revolution’ is OSG’s latest drilling innovation for ultra-machining efficiency in a wide range of materials. Its unique R gash geometry enables high thrust resistance and exceptional chip control, which are common challenges of 3-flute drills
by Takahiro Yamamoto, OSG Corporation Applications Engineer (Drill Development Division)
Figure 1. ADO-TRS’ unique R gash geometry enables low cutting resistance and creates short and compact chips stably
Figure 1. ADO-TRS’ unique R gash geometry enables low cutting resistance and creates short and compact chips stably
mostly used in the processing of materials with short cutting chips and low cutting resistance, such as cast iron, ductile cast iron and aluminum alloy. Three-flute drills are sometimes advertised to be suitable for steel materials such as carbon steel, alloy steel and mild steel. However, with a smaller chip room geometry than 2-flute drills, the cutting thrust resistance in 3-flute drills is also greater.

Due to constraints in workpiece configuration, equipment and setup, conventional 3-flute drills often are unable to maximize both speed and precision as advertised.

​Moreover, in steel processing, the strength of the work material and viscosity are high, making chip separation and stable processing a challenge. With high thrust force and poor chip evacuation, sudden machining troubles such as tool breakage and chipping are common headaches of 3-flute drills.

To help manufacturers maximize productivity, OSG has recently introduced a new revolutionary drilling innovation – the ADO-TRS – nicknamed as the ‘Triple Revolution’ drill, for ultra-machining efficiency and stability in steel materials.

Features of ADO-TRS ‘Triple Revolution’ Drill

There are three major features that enable the ADO-TRS to stably process steel applications. The most notable key feature is the newly engineered R gash geometry (pat. P) as illustrated in figure 1.

The optimized R shape geometry is designed to control chip flow direction to facilitate trouble-tree chip-evacuation. With this new feature, the ADO-TRS is able to significantly improve chip separation even in steel materials by breaking them into small pieces and consistent shape.

In addition, this new geometry can reduce cutting resistance (thrust resistance), by as much as 30 percent versus conventional tooling, enabling it to outperform even 2-flute drills in high-feed processing with minimal cutting resistance.

The second key feature of the ADO-TRS is its wide chip pocket configuration.

In 3-flute drills, chips are difficult to be discharged from the center of the drill. The ADO-TRS employs a wide chip room flute geometry to improve chip ejection. Combined with the R gash specification, chips are curled for greater separation capability, which leads to smooth and stable chip evacuation.

Last but not least, the ADO-TRS is coated with OSG’s original EgiAs coating for high durability. The EgiAs coating is consist of overlapping nano-periodical layers and wear-resistance layers, engineered to suppress the propagation of cracks that are likely to occur during drilling.

​The wear-resistance layer is composed of multiple hard layers; while the nano-periodical is a combination of hard and soft layers. With a mixture of hard and soft layers, internal stress can be relieved, allowing the EgiAs coating to achieve both high wear resistance and extreme toughness to ensure stable and consistent tool life under aggressive cutting conditions.

Excellent Chip Formation and Evacuation in Steel Applications

Figure 2. Chip shape comparison in SCM440.
Figure 2. Chip shape comparison in SCM440.
Two of ADO-TRS’ most notable benefits are its superior chip management and low resistance drilling capability in steel materials.

SCM440 (raw) is one of the more viscous materials among steels. When processing this material with MQL, chips generated by conventional 3-flute drills and 2-flute drills are elongated as depicted in figure 2.

​As depicted in figure 3, the conventional 3-flute drill is unable to break chips into small pieces.

​As a result, remnants of elongated chips remain in the flute of the drill. The ADO-TRS, on the other hand, is able to demonstrate excellent chip form consistently as shown in figure 2.
Figure 3. Condition of the conventional 3-flute drill after processing SCM440.

Figure 4. Chip shape comparison in SS400

Figure 5. Tool life comparison in SS400

Moreover, in the processing of SS400 using water-soluble coolant, sudden tool damage and chipping caused by tangled chips are prone to occur.

The stability in chip formation and evacuation is a key factor for achieving stable processing in mild steel SS400, which is particularly prone to chip problems.

​As illustrated in figure 4 and figure 5, the ADO-TRS demonstrates overwhelming chip separation capability and long tool life even in the processing of SS400 in comparison to the conventional 3-flute drill and 2-flute drill.

Low Resistance Drilling

Figure 6. Cutting resistance (thrust resistance) comparison in SCM440.
Figure 6. Cutting resistance (thrust resistance) comparison in SCM440.
Next, figure 6 illustrates a comparison of cutting resistance when processing under the cutting condition depicted in figure 2.

As shown in figure 6, the ADO-TRS is able to reduce thrust resistance by approximately 35 percent versus conventional 3-flute drills, and generated even less overall thrust resistance when compared to a standard 2-flute carbide drill, which has one less flute and larger chip rooms. Under identical cutting condition, the ADO-TRS is able to achieve the lowest thrust resistance.

Due to high cutting resistance inherent in conventional 3-flute drills and the various constraints present in processing environment, such as the machine, workpiece geometry, work fixture, etc., conventional 3-flute drills are often unable to maximize high-feed performance and precision. The ADO-TRS, on the other hand, excels in wide range of cutting conditions, truly reflecting its versatile capability.
