Milling With Indexable Inserts
LMT Fette’s indexable insert milling systems are designed to deliver maximum machining volume with exceptional flexibility, stability, and process reliability. The product range covers the full spectrum of milling operations—including face milling, corner milling, copy milling, and high-feed machining—ensuring optimal performance across diverse materials and applications.
Engineered for consistent results, LMT Fette focuses on innovative tool development, precise insert geometry, and solutions tailored to specific machining requirements.
MultiEdge Milling Systems
The MultiEdge family is purpose-built for high productivity and demanding roughing operations. Tangentially mounted indexable inserts in the MultiEdge T90 PRO4 and MultiEdge T90 PRO8 cutters provide outstanding rigidity and stability, enabling aggressive cutting parameters and long tool life.
Thread forming – The technology of the future
Thread forming is distinguished from machining processes by its higher thread reliability and tool life. Furthermore, higher circumferential speeds significantly increase the cost-effectiveness of this process. A prerequisite for using thread formers is a material elongation at break of at least 8% and a maximum tensile strength of up to 1400 N/mm². The modular HPF Max thread former has become an integral part of modern series production, particularly in the automotive and mechanical engineering industries. Its long service life is based on a proven combination of a carbide substrate, a high-performance coating, and an optimized former geometry. The solid carbide FormMAX thread former consists of a newly developed fine-grained carbide with a specially optimized former geometry. To further enhance thread quality and tool life, the coated tool surface has undergone a special smoothing process.
Reaming — High-Precision Bore Finishing
When demands for bore drilling accuracy are rising—particularly in applications like cylinder bores, valve seats, or precision functional bores in pumps—the right reaming technology becomes essential. Thanks to decades of experience in reaming operations, LMT Fette (via LMT Tools) manufactures tools to micrometer-level precision, delivering perfect bore geometry and unlocking real advantages in productivity, quality, and cost control.
The EASYReam family offers a broad application range with full-carbide and modular reamers, available in through-coolant (internal coolant supply) configurations with either central or radial outlets. These tools enable optimal coolant flow and chip control, and the modular design simplifies changeovers and minimizes setup times.
Thread rolling heads and rolling systems
LMT Fette rolling heads produce external profiles of all kinds with high precision through cold forming in a matter of seconds. As a user, you benefit from numerous advantages when using thread rolling compared to machining processes: Production time is extremely short. At the same time, you achieve high thread strength and consistent dimensional accuracy. Furthermore, you benefit from excellent surface quality and long tool life. All these advantages together set the performance standard for chipless forming.
Gear cutters and gear cutting tools
Gear manufacturing processes are highly optimized today. Details are becoming increasingly important, allowing for further cost savings. At the same time, the demands on quality and process reliability have also increased. Our tooling solutions set the standard worldwide – and the pace: Whether for large production volumes – such as in the automotive industry – or for large dimensions, such as in wind energy technology, LMT Fette is a reliable partner. With innovative strength, experienced application consultants, a global service network, and excellent engineering, we support you as a user in optimally positioning yourself for the future.
