Welcome to Rainford Precision
Many new products for micro machining are available as we build a relationship with KYOCERA Micro Tools from the USA whose strengths in different machining capabilities complement our existing range of UNION TOOL endmills and drills. With threadmills from M0.5, micro boring bars for diameters as small as 0.4 mm, reamers starting at 0.2 mm diameter and special end geometry on our drill for brass (from 0.06 mm). Also available for micro machining are uncoated 2, 3 and 4 flute endmills from 0.1 mm diameter.
Our ability to offer a wide range of tools far beyond the accuracy of others means we not only have available a diverse mix of off-the-shelf solutions and patented technical information, but also excellent prices and an on-the-dot delivery service.
Please contact us if you have any enquiries or require additional information.
New Through coolant drills
60 micron to 12 mm diameter endmills
Our UNION TOOL range has been extended with a 4 flute corner radius endmill range (HLRS 4000) with unequal tooth spacing to eliminate chatter and improve surface finish, diameters from 1.0 mm to 6.0 mm and corner radii from 0.05 mm to 1.0 mm.
SAMURAI range of endmills
Competitively priced and capable of machining up to 55 HRC, this new range of endmills is available in ballnose, corner radius and square geometries (1 to 12 mm diameter).
Sliding head machine users
Are taking benefits by the introduction of a number of new micro machining products including, spotting drills (from 0.15 mm dia.), coolant fed drills (from 1.5 mm dia.) and boring bars (from 0.4 mm), but more importantly our standard and special diameters for brass, from 0.06 mm up to 3.0 mm our tool geometry has been able to solve problems by not producing burrs.
Aerospace
Our technical capability to machine heat resistant nickel alloys with endmills having variable tooth spacing and variable helix angles giving excellent tool life and improved surface finishes has been extended with the CFB (more diameters) and the new CFLB (0.6-6.0 mm dia.) ballnose and CXS (3-16 mm dia.) ranges.
Toolmakers
Wishing to machine harder steels with improved tool life should look at the new range of HSB (1-12 mm dia.) and HSLB (0.3-6 mm dia.) ballnose endmills. The change in geometry on the ballnose gash to a negative rake makes quite a difference. Additionally the HLRS4000 series (1-6 mm dia) of corner radius endmills with variable tooth spacing, wide variety of radiuses per cutter diameter as well as incremental clearance lengths can assist both roughing and finishing operations.
NEW KERN MICRO
machining centre
In 3 and 5 axis configurations this 300 x 220 mm compact machining centre has a standard tool magazine with 101 positions (with option of 209), a 500-50,000 rpm HSK25 spindle, laser tool measurement system, component touch probe and the ability to easily link in to an external workpiece changer, and yet is only 1.5 m wide! It’s ideal for production and prototype machining.
KERN TRITON machining centre
A new more powerful machine with a 40,000 rpm spindle, HSK40 spindle taper and full 5 axis capabilities. Designed to link into the most popular external automatic workpiece changing systems, and working in a 3 or 5 axis mode.
KERN µ -View tool inspection system
Inspect your tools before using to confirm the accuracy of the form and then as they are used to assess the rate of wear on the teeth, this way tool life can be increased and money saved. When machining a component that requires a high surface finish, regular inspection of the tool will show any deterioration and corrective steps can be taken before the surface is damaged.
