Meeting the Demands of Modern Woodworking

Woodworking is evolving rapidly, leading to a fast transition from slow and manual applications to high-efficiency CNC machining. The industry’s innovation requires more advanced tooling. The SCH range for solid wood is our premium answer to high-speed, automated wood and composite processing, returning precision and flexibility.

Unmatched Versatility for Wood and Composites

Designed with versatility in mind, the new range of Solid Carbide Cutters is primarily indicated for massive wood cutting. However, its advanced geometries make it a "universal" solution to achieve exceptional results when cutting composites. The SCH geometries and high-quality materials are developed to increase tool flexibility and resist the mechanical stress caused by varying material densities and wood grains. While this range is particularly effective for hardwoods and softwoods, it also performs well on materials like chipboard, MDF, and plywood. These tools are compatible with all CNC machines, including traditional, small CNC, and the new generation of nesting machines, ensuring seamless integration into any existing workflow.

An Expanded Portfolio to Meet Every Need

The extended portfolio includes 58 new Solid Carbide Router Cutters, for a wide variety of applications, featuring cutters with both up-cut and down-cut helix designs to meet different finishing and roughing requirements. The series includes tools with two (Z2) and three (Z3) flutes, available in a broad selection of metric diameters ranging from 3mm to 20mm. This extensive range ensures you will find the perfect tool to optimize your manufacturing processes

Advanced Features for Superior Performance and Durability

At the core of the new extended range of Solid Carbide Router Cutters are advanced features, designed to maximize performance and durability. The combination of innovative cutting geometries and dedicated helix designs guarantees an exceptional surface finish on solid wood, while optimizing chip evacuation for a cleaner operating environment.

The prolonged lifetime of the new SCH is driven by our proprietary, long-lasting TiCo Carbide, manufactured entirely in-house. For the most demanding applications, we have introduced a new micro-grain formula (MG10) engineered for exceptional tenacity and stress resistance. This ensures maximum performance even during challenging, high-overhang operations.
