"By switching to gear skiving and investing in a turning/milling centre from INDEX, we have achieved maximum process reliability," says Erwin Wagner. Wagner is responsible for tool scheduling at SAM GmbH in Bad Tölz. The company is considered a specialist in the development and production of high-quality components for aircraft construction. For almost 40 years, SAM has relied on precision tools from Paul Horn GmbH for machining challenging components. In addition to tool solutions for groove turning, internal turning and gear broaching, the gear skiving process has now also found its way into production at the Bavarian factory.
