An exciting new tool The Eliminator CBT is an exciting new tool that takes a segment of a circle to form the radius of the flute, which enables improved step down strategies when compared to ballnose endmills. Until now the conventional way to produce a required finish was to use a ballnose. This limits the step down, generally calculated as: ap = 0.02 x D1 For example, a 10.00mm diameter ballnose can achieve an ap of 0.20mm. Therefore, increasing the step down would require a much larger diameter cutter which would not be practical. Quickgrind s CBT does not have such limitations The CBT s contact area is much greater because the flute radius is adapted from the segment of a much larger circle. If you wanted to increase the step down from 0.2mm to 5.0mm you would need a 250mm diameter ballnose. However, by taking a segment of a 250mm diameter circle to form the flute of your tool, you can achieve a tool diameter of 6mm, 8mm, 10mm, 12mm or even 16mm.
