Wafian Modulated Machining

Chip control in different machining processes, whether it's drilling, turning, cutoff or boring is imperative. Modulated Assisted Turning (MAT) is one clever way to attack this issue.

Frequency Matters

You can design the chip that gives optimum performance


Possibilities in any continuous machining process

Turning, Deep Hole Drilling, Cutoff and Facing Operations


Mechanical, Peizo and Servo Driven are all possible.  But each has its advantages and disadvantages.  TavaTek LLC can guide you to the optimum solution to your problems.
