Description

Peregrine will demonstrate internally-cooled cutting tool solutions to address the following aspects including cost and lead time of a material removal process for difficult-to-machine aerospace materials; milling operations for titanium and nickel-alloy machining are the main focus of this effort to: lower machining-induced temperatures, increase tool life up to 10 times, develop advanced internally cooled cutting tools (ICCT) technology, increase material removal rates (MRR)by 2 times, reduce the percentage of manufacturing costs tied to machining, work to make commercially available cutting tools acceptable, and bring ICCTs to market, by developing our proposed technology and demonstrating improved tool-life curves.
