WFL TECtalks Episode 10: iControl & SilentTools Plus - Interview with Reinhard Koll & Jens Nannen

The geometry of workpieces and the materials used are becoming increasingly more complex. In addition, the market expects quick responsiveness and a high degree of flexibility, turning greater productivity from a mere topic for discussion into a firm customer requirement. These challenges have to be mastered and the customer's wishes fulfilled. The Silent ToolsTM Plus boring bar from Sandvik Coromant – the world market leader for tools and machining solutions – is equipped with sensors to provide data on utilisation, temperature, deflection and the surface quality achieved, and intervenes adaptively in the machining process if the limit parameters are exceeded. The process transparency gained allows the machining process to be significantly optimised.
