eing better means continuously thinking about the competition and your own products and services, identifying potential
optimisation and above all, developing innovations, which constitute real progress and benefit. In cutting/milling techno-
logy, lighter, significantly faster machines led to fundamental changes, which required new cutters for higher feed rates and
and considerably smaller cutting depths closer to the contour. The founder of our company, F.-J. Pokolm played a decisive role
in this important milling cutter body development step with many innovations that are now considered to be the standard.
For example, unlike the inch sizes commonly used before, today milling cutter bodies and inserts in metric sizes simplify calcu-
lation of the relevant values. The embedded insert seat is a POKOLM innovation, for which we have the inventive genius and
practical experience of the founder of our company to thank. The patented
DUOPLUG
®
system with its significantly increased
holding forces and maximum concentricity is thought by the industry to be the perfect screw connection between tool and the
toolholder. A current cutting/milling technology milestone is the
SPINWORX
®
round insert cutter with self-rotating inserts.
At the same time the
SPINWORX
®
tooling system with its holder, inserts and locking pins clearly verifies how perfectly all the
individual POKOLM components are coordinated with each other - the result of years of experience and in-depth know-how.
Top quality and precision standards during development and series production, not only in-house but also at our suppliers,
also form an indispensable basis for this success.
S
uccessful practicians consciously opt for POKOLM pre-
mium tools and benefit from this decision. This little bit
"more" that gives POKOLM customers the decisive competi-
tive advantage, results automatically from the interaction of
excellent products and outstanding technical advice provided
by our technical field service, which is completely and indivi-
dually orientated to every single customer.
