 Stellram has developed a reputation for providing the best cutting tool solutions for difficult to machine materials – stainless steel, super-alloys, and titanium. The company focuses on these materials while still servicing general tooling needs for less demanding materials.
Stellram have chosen a very high specification STAMA MC726MT-G Mill Turn machining centre from the STAMA Mill Turn range, configured with a sub-spindle for 6 face machining. Tooling will be produced with this new mill turn, including Stellram’s latest product introductions such as high velocity cutters for airframe components, patented anti-rotation tooling for heavy feed milling, plunge milling tools and high feed facing cutters.
Supplied with a proven and integrated barfeed system, gripper conveyor, 150 tool- extended ATC carousel, a 12K HSK63 main spindle with 70bar through spindle coolant and extended deep hole drilling capability, the STAMA MC-726MT is part of the ongoing capital investment strategy through out the ATI Corporation. Stellram's parent company, Allegheny Technologies, (NYSE: ATI), is one of the largest and most diversified specialty material producers in the world.
Speaking of the investment, Hugh Welch, Stellram’s UK Manufacturing Manager said:
“ It is a true reflection of our long term objective to invest in the highest specification equipment in order to produce the latest tooling technology. Matsuura is a leader in their field and we are proud of this collaboration as they have supplied us with the ideal solution to our manufacturing needs.”
