CUTTING TOOLS

A Web site to assist toolmakers in the production of natural diamond tools has been launched by Element Six BV. The portal is designed to serve as a direct source for natural diamond-cutting tool blanks, which are identified by photographs, dimensions, material description and prices. The company says that it can provide a cutting service to meet specifications on a wide variety of tool requirements. The tools are used for the machining of nonferrous and precious metals and are useful when a particularly high quality surface finish is required.
