Faster finishing and prefinishing with circle-segment cutters

For circle-segment cutters – also known as barrel cutters – the radii in the cutting areas are significantly larger than for conventional ball cutters. They are modern high-performance tools for high-efficiency prefinishing and finishing of planes and free-form surfaces. The same surface roughness is achieved on the part with a significantly larger path distance, which greatly reduces your machining times while achieving outstanding surface quality. 

Which circle-segment cutter is best suited for finishing depends entirely on the specific manufacturing task. The significant advantage of Tebis: You can directly import most manufacturer's tools with the according contours. And by using parameters or curves, you can create all tool geometries quickly and easily and represent them on a 1:1 basis in the tool library. You remain completely flexible.
