Success Stories: Sandvik Coromant

Sandvik Coromant is the world's leading manufacturer of cutting tools for the metalworking industry, with more than 25,000 products.

  • Challenge: Identify optimum geometry and cutting conditions to achieve lower cutting temperatures
  • Approach: Run FEA simulations to analyze effects of changes in geometry and cutting conditions.
  • Software: AdvantEdge FEM 2D
  • results: Fewer trial-and-error tests for optimized cutting tool geometry; selection of recommended cutting conditions for reduced temperatures.
