Grinding a step in carbide miniature milling cutters

[Ali]

Hi Folks,

I’m looking for someone to reduce a portion of the shank diameter of some cutters, mainly 4mm-2.99 (+/-0.005), sometimes 3mm-1.99mm. Basically putting a step in the end.

I’d be looking for batches between 20-50 done each time.

It’s a very fiddly job and some of the tips are as small as 0.5mm so require careful handling (hot dip is best).

I have a few leads but wondering if anyone knows of a company who might be willing to take on a job like this, the guy who used to do it for me is no longer around.

Thanks

Probably doesn't help you but I think you're looking for a tool grinding service.

Many thanks, had a price off Drill service, bit much though.

@Screwdriver, you also need to cut a tiny leading edge at the tip

Try Raynor tool grinder.
