Case Study: 7745 VSE
The 7745 VSE cutter offers a high positive design for hard-to-machine materials. The VSE cutter is widely used for machining turbine blades in the power generation industry, especially when the machine tool is less rigid. Grade X500 is successful in these applications due to its ability to handle difficult machining conditions.
