Machining blisks

Tools and special-purpose solutions for machining in a single clamping operation

Even though much can still be achieved using application-specific standard tools, machining of the blisk in particular requires modified and customised tool systems. The demanding contours found on the wide variety of different types of blisk and the stringent requirements with regard to surface quality, tight component tolerances and high-quality materials can only be satisfied using specially modified tools.

The broad scope of our standard product range and our expertise in devising special solutions mean that blisks can now be manufactured in a single clamping operation.

1. Solid carbide barrel milling cutter

Blisk pre-finishing and finishing with customised form cutters

  • Ideal for flank milling
