how to drive the global carbide tools market

       

Machine tools plays a very crucial role in manufacturing of metal components through machining. Computerized numerical control (CNC) machines are prominently used for machining of metal components which requires high precision for producing complex shapes of varied dimensions. Currently, there are mainly two types of machine tools prominently used. HSS (High Speed Steel) and Carbide Tools; among which Carbide Tools is most prevalent for machining applications primarily due to exceptional wear resistance, chemical inertness, material strength and other superior characteristics. Often machining system productivity is mainly guided by the use of machine tools with superior characteristics such as long lasting capability, rigorous operating and high speed performance.This factor is primarily gaining the consumer attraction towards adoption of carbide tools over conventional tools. Although carbide tools are more costly but considering the time required for machining the component, employing carbide tools can remarkably result in improved quality, increased output and lower machining & labor cost.

 

Carbide Tools Market: Drivers, Challenges and Trends

 

Development in manufacturing design and need to achieve production efficiency is laying the foundation for manufacturer’s exploration of high-end products, thus increasing the demand for carbide tools. Moreover, manufacturers pushing efforts towards optimised cutting geometries and high performance coating is gaining consumer attraction which in turn is driving the global carbide tools market.

 

As resharpenig of carbide cutting tools is of prime concern, major players are now investing in resharping tool facilities comparable to new tool production for both in-house and outsourced operations. Reconditioning of carbide tool primarily to reduce inventory cost, avoid material waste is also the major focus area of many players in the global carbide tools market.

 

Carbide Tools Market: Key Developments

 

In March 2016, CERATIZIT S. A. announced extended range of materials grades for carbide tools manufacturers. With over 50 new dimensions for end-mill blanks and through coolant capability the company aimed at meeting the demands of niche applications namely threading and cutting.
