Consulting & Engineering

Mikron Tool offers comprehensive consulting and engineering services to optimize your manufacturing processes. From selecting the perfect tool to developing complete machining solutions, our experts are your partners in precision and performance.

Consulting & Engineering: From Idea to Optimal Result

With a high-performance tool from Mikron Tool, you're not just buying ground carbide; you're gaining a partner dedicated to achieving maximum results. Our cooperation often begins long before a tool is purchased, starting with your unique challenge. Whether you need to select the right tool or develop a complete manufacturing process for a new workpiece, our expertise in consulting and engineering is at your service.

Expert Consulting: Finding the Right Tool for the Job

A successful machining process starts with the right questions. Our specialists dive deep into your manufacturing reality to ensure you get the perfect tool for your application. We analyze every variable:

• Material: What specific material are you machining?
• Machine & Setup: What is your machine's max RPM, spindle run-out, and tool holder configuration?
• Cooling: Do you use through-coolant spindles, and what is the maximum pressure?
• Required Results: What are the required tolerances, surface quality, batch sizes, and target cycle times?

This deep understanding allows us to recommend the ideal standard tool or suggest flexible, customized variants—from slight geometry adaptations to alternative coatings—to perfectly match your needs.

Custom Engineering: Designing Your Perfect Machining Process 

When the challenge is more complex, our engineering know-how comes into play. If you need to define an entire machining cycle for a new component, our team can design the ideal process. We determine whether a standard tool is sufficient or if a more profitable combination tool can be used. Our specialists are experienced across all machine types, from CNC milling centers to transfer machines and automatic lathes, ensuring we develop the most efficient and economical solution for your workpiece.
