An IWF Challengers Award Finalist, Endurance Diamond Tooling with PCD (Poly Crystallin Diamond) allows you to use diamond tools in applications where only carbide and HSS (high speed steel) have traditionally been used.
Historically, woodworking diamond tools were really just a by-product of metalworking tooling. Now ILJIN Diamond has created a game-changing PCD material that may also change the way you think about tooling.
Experts from Frontline Tooling Solutions (booth #4728) will be also be presenting other exciting tooling developments, and fielding your questions in person or live on Twitter and Facebook. On hand will be Frontline's Dave Otten and CEO Tim Rash (see his bio below).
