Case one: Turning mud screws
An oil & gas company machining mud screws invited Sandvik
Coromant to the workshop to test Silent Tools as the existing
solution was not stable enough. By utilizing the stability of the
Silent Tools bar and the possibilities of using higher cutting data,
the machining time was reduced by nine minutes per component.
