Environmentally Friendly Tools
With a commitment to sustainability, OSG proposes attainable initiatives starting from its cutting tools.
Small efforts such as machining with environmentally friendly coolant and reducing the number of tools used can be a step towards the realization of a sustainable society. By increasing processing efficiency, a reduction in power consumption is achieved, which in turn contributes to the greater vision of carbon neutrality. Making a difference starting from cutting tools, OSG will continue to promote environmentally friendly initiatives to contribute to the earth’s sustainability and social development.
Taps
Highly Efficient and Multi-purpose Tap
Cutting fluids have a great impact on the environment. The A-Tap enables stable machining with environment-friendly chlorine-free water-soluble cutting fluid due to its unique cutting edge specification that emphasizes sharpness and the effect of V coating.
Highly Efficient and Multi-purpose Forming Tap
Forming tap forms threads by plastic deformation of the work material and does not generate cutting chips. As a result, tool change time due to chip troubles and machine downtime required for removing accumulated cutting chips is eliminated. By enabling stable and uninterrupted machining, power consumption can be reduced.
X Performer Forming Tap
Forming tap forms threads by plastic deformation of the work material and does not generate cutting chips. As a result, tool change time due to chip troubles and machine downtime required for removing accumulated cutting chips is eliminated. By enabling stable and uninterrupted machining, power consumption can be reduced.
Carbide A-Tap
Conventional products require a high-pressure pump of about 7 MPa. By optimizing the diameter of the oil hole and other specifications, 1.5 to 3 MPa is sufficient for stable machining, which reduces power consumption and environmental impact.
Drills
Carbide Drill for Stainless Steel and Titanium Alloy
The new coolant hole shape "MEGA COOLER," which achieves the largest discharge amount in its class, discharges the same amount of coolant at half the coolant pressure compared to conventional products.
Small Carbide Drill with Oil Holes
A shank with hollow oil holes enables maximum coolant flow to allow smooth chip evacuation. Even deep holes can be machined without steps, which contributes to high efficiency machining.
End Mills
Anti-vibration Carbide End Mill
The DUARISE coating, which excels in lubricity, wear resistance and high-temperature oxidation resistance, exhibits stable durability performance in dry, wet and mist conditions, making it possible to process with environment-friendly coolant.
DLC Coated Carbide End Mill for Non-ferrous Materials
Extension of tool life leads to waste reduction and contributes to resource conservation. The adoption of DLC coating demonstrates high adhesion resistance and prolongs tool life.
Thread Mills
Thread Mill with End-cutting Edge for High-hardness Steels
Conventionally, two types of tools, a drill and a tap, were used in the process. Simultaneous processing of helical drilling and thread cutting reduces the number of tools required, leading to a reduction in waste.
Thread Mill with End-cutting Edge for Non-ferrous Materials
Drilling and threading by continuous helical cutting with a single tool enables the consolidation of tooling. Excellent positional accuracy in cast hole also leads to a reduction in the defect rate.
Indexable
OSG PHOENIX Indexable Flat Drill
Consolidation of tools made possible for parts with various shapes that were conventionally machined using multiple tools. Drilling, internal turning, face turning, and outer turning can be completed by a single tool.
