An effective method of increasing the durability of tools is the application of abrasion-resistant coatings. The  most commonly used method for this purpose is the PVD  (Physical Vapour Deposition) method, which constitutes the physical  deposition of thin layers of the gas phase. The applied layer, usually 3 ÷ 5 µm thick, of great  hardness, significantly increases the resistance of the tool blades to abrasive  wear.

I used the 1/8 x 1" compression bit for cutting 3/4 inch hardwood for wooden toys on my cnc. These bits outcut most of my other 1/8" bits by far with less heat problems and slippage in the chuck. I will order more when needed for sure. Great bits

– very high abrasion  resistance and high and  uniform hardness of the working  surfaces of tools – a significant increase in tool service life (up to 5 x greater)– reduction  of production costs– improvement of the quality of the machined surface and machining  accuracy– the possibility of increasing the cutting parameters (cutting  speed by 40 ÷ 60 %) and machining efficiency – reducing  the number of tool replacements– improving chip removal  by reducing the friction coefficient

The offered tool surface  finishes and abrasion-resistant, super-hard PVD coatings  are dedicated to every type of machining  and material.

I had previously been doing all my slab flattening on a home made sled. It worked ok and it got the job done, but it had many limitations, some of which I didn't even realize until I started using the SpeTool sled. The first issue was that it had too much flex in the wood rails and would sag when I tried flatting slabs larger than about 20" wide. The second issue was the mess it made in the shop. It was actually so bad that I would have to use it outside. The biggest draw back however, wasn't realized until I started using the SpeTool sled. With the SpeTool sled I was able to work the router with the grain down the long side of the Slab This was something that I couldn't really do with my homemade sled. Working with the grain produces a smoother surface and is less work in my opinion. Then when you add in the dust collection, I was able to work in my shop again. Now I am not going to say you won't need to vacuum when you are done, but the mess is drastically less than with no dust collection. Also, the aluminum rails are much stiffer than my wood ones and don't flex nearly as much over larger spans. I would absolutely put this kit at the top of my list if I was setting a small garage shop up for slab flattening. Rob @ RM Woodcraft llc

The search for optimal  solutions to increase the  durability of the tools on offer has resulted in the SEGER Cutting Tools’ introduction of the service of coating  tools with PVD coatings, which greatly affect the service life and durability of the tools.

This is an investment! That being said, if you only doing one slab, I would recommend DIY build or having someone professionally flatten your project. I would hazard a guess that you would be saving for a fifth of the cost of this rig. I bought the dust shield with vacuum hose attachment and was disappointed on a few levels. Firstly, it's a gimmick that falls short of its intended purpose and although it may cut down a little of the waste being scattered in the shop, it does not work as advertised. Do your slab flattening outside or you'llbe vacuuming for days. Secondly the hose port fit is not standard for any shop vac, so you'll be needing some type of adapter. As for the router sled itself, the build is sturdy, and it does work as intended. However there is the minimal clearance issue. Even at its lowest setting, I still had to raise the work piece as the plunge depth of routers are limited. Also expect to clear debris (constantly) from wheel path as it collects and will hinder the smoorh and level tracking of the wheels Overall, it works. But I'm thinking I should have opted for the bearing rail system. I gave it 3 stars because that's where it falls in the overall rating. Average! These are my opinions from my experience. Your millage may vary. If I could send it back without the hassle. I probably would. I don't have the box, and the return policy says everything has to be in original unused condition, which is impossible after use.

Selecting the right coating becomes a decisive factor which determines the production’s success.   A properly selected coating guarantees both technological and economic advantages.
