Profile-bound precision tools: The production of individualists
The tool design provides the rotational geometry of the precision tool and the definition of the flute. PTM takes care of the rest: the calculation of the spatial cutting edge and the process-dependent description of the tool for the tool. Intelligent postprocessors ensure that the machine understands what it has to do afterwards.
