1 milling cutter, 5 successes<\/span>
\nHow the RF 100 Sharp impresses our customers<\/span><\/h1>\n

In autumn 2021, G\u00fchring presented an innovation in milling. A solid carbide high-performance milling cutter that promises full flexibility and is currently the sharpest milling cutter on the market with its higher rake angle: The RF 100 Sharp. Since then, the tool has been the cause of success stories around the world: Although the materials, applications and machining conditions were always different, the end result was always a satisfied customer who was able to generate a real advantage for their operations. We have summarised five such success stories here.[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=”3_4,1_4″ module_class=”gue-page-header” _builder_version=”4.23.1″ _module_preset=”default” locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”3_4″ _builder_version=”4.21.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/guehring.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Blog_Headergrafik_Maerz_2023_RF100Sharp.jpg” alt=”RF 100 Sharp” title_text=”RF 100 Sharp” _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_4″ _builder_version=”4.21.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_row module_class=”gue-row-text” _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.19.5″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.27.5″ _module_preset=”default” hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” sticky_enabled=”0″]<\/p>\n

A Korean company manufactures parts for the automotive industry. However, when roughing a shank for a steel drive shaft (15CrMo5), its previous tool concept had reached its limits, as the high machining times were uneconomical over the long term.<\/p>\n

G\u00fchring was able to offer a significantly more efficient process here. The G\u00fchring experts advised the customer to use the new RF 100 Sharp with a diameter of 6 mm (art. no.: 6478<\/a>) with the GTC strategy (G\u00fchring Trochoidal Cutting). This state-of-the-art milling strategy relies on a high cutting depth (ap) as well as the lowest possible and consistent tool wrap due to a reduced radial infeed rate (ae). The result is a significantly faster cutting speed, which enables high material removal rates to be achieved. The particularly easy-cutting RF 100 Sharp high-performance milling cutter unleashes its full potential here and at the same time its AlCrN coating offers a high level of wear protection \u2013 even with aggressive cutting parameters. This also pays off in the aforementioned example: Thanks to the tool change, the customer has been able to reduce its machining time by 50 percent. At the same time, the milling cutter achieves double the tool life: With one tool, 20 parts are now produced instead of the previous 10.[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_toggle title=”Cutting values” _builder_version=”4.27.5″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

When machining steel supporting strips (16MnCr5), a contract manufacturer faced a challenge: The very long machine components could not be clamped stably. In addition, the deep slots required a tool with a long projection length. However, both can lead to vibrations during milling, which promote rapid tool wear.[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=”2_5,3_5″ module_id=”5″ module_class=”gue-row-vertical-aligned-content gue-row-2col-image-text” _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”2_5″ _builder_version=”4.21.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/guehring.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/GUE_Success_Stories_Sharp3.jpg” alt=”F\u00fchrungsleisten” title_text=”F\u00fchrungsleisten” module_id=”anwendung2″ _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”3_5″ _builder_version=”4.21.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.27.5″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n
