Magnetfinish – Precision Edge Honing & Polishing for Cutting Tools

Magnetfinish is a remarkable and unique process that was originally developed to dramatically increase the performance and lifetime of all types of cutting tools. Generally, cutting tools that have been Magnetfinished can last over twice as long and be run at much higher speeds and feeds.

How It Works
Magnetfinish uses magnetically guided abrasive powder to polish cutting tools to a surface roughness as low as 0.02 μm Ra. It precisely rounds tip and flute edges to between 3–50 μm, improving consistency and tool geometry. This process enhances chip flow, extends tool life by removing the run-in phase, and improves coating adhesion by preparing surfaces prior to coating.

Applications
Ideal for taps, drills, end mills, reamers, and stamping tools, Magnetfinish is also used on automotive components and precision parts. It delivers burr-free finishes and consistent edge rounding on both coated and uncoated tools, boosting performance and durability.
