Solid carbide hobs

In certain applications, using solid carbide to manufacture the hob provides significant advantages over using HSSE-PM. The possibility to work with higher cutting speeds satisfies the demands of those who require shorter cycle times combined with large production batches, just as the increased strength allows hobbing of difficult-to-machine parts. Solid carbide skiving hobs in particular allow the finishing of previously hobbed and subsequently quenched parts.
