On November 9, 2022, Seco Tools and selected partners will host the hybrid live event, Automotive & General Engineering ITI. Machining demonstration sessions as well as expert presentations will introduce the latest solutions for automotive manufacturing and general engineering. Hosted physically in the new Innovation Hub in Erkrath near Düsseldorf, Germany, the German Auto ITI program will be streamed live online. In addition, an English stream will be available sharing highlights and interviews from the live German event.

Milling challenging materials like tough steels, stainless steels, superalloys and titanium cause built-up or notched edges and broken inserts that increase tooling costs and cause unexpected downtime.

Seco Tools, a world leader in cutting tool manufacturing, opened a new production unit (PU) in Ramos Arizpe in Coahuila, Mexico. Special cutting tools and standard tools will be manufactured in this plant to meet the expected industrial growth in Mexico, as well as supply cutting tool products throughout the globe.

To allow manufacturers to meet customer demand for lower part prices, the new Seco Helical SN8-13 milling system features double-sided helix inserts with eight cutting edges that significantly lower cost per edge to boost slotting, side milling and circular rough milling efficiency.

With the utmost employee safety, health and wellbeing in mind, Seco Tools has initiated a far-reaching safety strategy that involves both yearly and long-term goals extending out to the year 2030. With this long-term planning and continuous improvement approach, the company will significantly lower lost time injury frequency rates as compared to results achieved through typical industry safety programs that focus solely on yearly achievements.

To provide manufacturers versatility and high value, Seco has launched its new X-Head quick-change replaceable milling head system. With the system, users can quickly and easily change between various solid-carbide milling geometries and types to optimize milling operations while reducing manufacturing costs and tooling inventories.

Everything is ready for the grand opening of the new Seco Tools Production Unit (PU) in México, on September 29th. The new plant will house special tool manufacturing. This strategic move will allow Seco Tools to consolidate its presence in the Mexican market which extends and strengthens the configuration of its manufacturing chains worldwide.

Seco and its technical partners will host the company’s first hybrid (physical and virtual) Inspiration Through Innovation (ITI) event on Wednesday, September 28, 2022. The event will be focused on the aerospace manufacturing segment, with machining demonstrations, an inspiring seminar programme, and networking opportunities.

Rachid M'Saoubi’s role within Seco Tools as Senior Research & Development (R&D) Expert might sound complex, but for him it’s about building bridges between the academic world and the needs of Seco Tools and their customers to help them stay competitive and thrive.
