Roughing is where most shops lose time and geometry-only strategies can't keep up with modern high-performance machines.

Marcelo's latest blog post breaks down how SmartRoughing changes the game. By combining real machining physics with Kennametal's lab-validated tool data, it intelligently adjusts cutting conditions layer by layer, reducing cycle times by 20–61% without risking tool life or spindle damage.
