O FLUTE FOR PLASTICS

Southeast Tool, Inc. offers a new solid carbide O flute tool with a radius for routing plastic and rounding the edge of the material in the same operation. The company states that by using O flute tooling that have this profile, you can achieve a better finish and will have less routing time over running the material in two passes.

The company states that it will be very helpful in the chairmat and automotive accessories area (i.e., bug shields and vent shades). The tools are currently available in sizes to cover 1/8", 3/16" and 1/4" material, with more sizes to be added soon.
