Original Factory Alloy Steel to Norwegian Manufacturers

The machining of collar bolts from 660B material on our Harrison Alpha 1460 XT CNC lathe being driven by Fanuc Oi TD control. This technology, being the latest from Fanuc and combined with the rigidity of this lathe makes for the perfect blend for this application. With our expertise of some 40 years in machining such materials, we are able to offer a very competitive and flexible service to customers who require exotic materials to be manufactured.

A one off experiment to see if I can turn some low carbon scrap into high carbon high end cutlery. In this first episode I make 2 small batches of blister steel by baking a batch of wrought and some mild steel at high temperatures with a charcoal compound. Using time and temperature the amount of carbon the iron absorbs can be approximately controlled.
Sorry for the low sound during explanations, I will turn it up on the next one, though it may mean some louder machine noise!! Difficult to find a balance.
This is the New Catcheside Cutlery Cam, a little Drift HD, handy little thing.
