‘If it is not perfect, it is not YG-1’, claims the company. YG1 is a major global player in the cutting tool industry with 27 offices worldwide. Thillo Muller, Product Manager Milling & Hole Making, EMEA, YG 1 was at the IMTEX 23 pitching for the company a wide variety of drills and mills.
Brand new to the Indian market, he said, was the new K2 Multi-Helix, which was displayed at the exhibition along with V7 end mill and the Prime Tap high-performance tapping.
The K2 Multi-Helix carbide milling cutters give vibration-free roughing for general purpose milling. It is a bridge for the customer seeking to move from a general purpose, easy-availability easy-priced cutter to a high-performance product. With unequal fluting and unequal tip flute spacing, Helix is the latest technology in carbide as well as coating.
“K2 Multi-Healix is an in-between product, a bridge to the high-performance product. It is so easy. It is a fire-and-forget solution,” said Muller.
V7 ultra micro grain solid carbide end mill comes in a four-foot condition similar to the K2 Multi Helix as well as in a 6-foot condition. Muller said it was perfect for dynamic milling. The long reach of up to four times with six edges makes it enormously productive.
According to Muller, Prime Tap from the tapping side was the most exciting of the new launches. The Prime Tap with the coated version was new to the Indian market, informed Muller. It was built upon the most popular Combo Tap and brought with the coated version. The Combo Tap, a proven and patented product, solved the problem of overfeeding. The second major issue of bird-nesting or chip congestion has also been taken care of. Prime Tap is perfect for all materials and all machines.
Muller said that YG 1 always aimed at higher productivity, longer tool life and exceptional pricing for its customers but would like to serve at both ends of the market. YG 1 sought to meet those absolutely demanding high-performance and the highest cutting speed and those looking for a good cross position.
