The turbo impeller shaft is a component that transmits the rotational motion of the turbine wheel. Since it is used in high-speed ranges exceeding 200,000 revolutions per minute, stringent quality control is required for both machining accuracy and tolerances.
In mass production machining, chip control of alloy steel is a crucial factor for maintaining stable machining accuracy and automation. As production volume increases, the need for improvement, stability, and efficiency becomes even more critical.
Tungaloy optimizes customers’ production efficiency by leveraging cutting-edge technology in cutting tool edge geometries and coating materials, enhancing productivity and tool life.
