Trochoidal milling, High Feed, Plunging : Which Strategy Wins?

Publiée le : January 30, 2026

In machining, choosing the right programming strategy has a direct impact on productivity energy consumption and process sustainability. But how do these differences actually compare ? 🤔

🎥 That’s exactly what we set out to demonstrate in a comparative video, showcasing different methods:

✅ Trochoidal Milling : increase productivity but increase machine tool stresses.

✅ High Feed : low productivity compare to other but really sustainable strategy.

✅ Plunging : medium productivity and medium stresses on machine tool.

💡 The goal ? To highlight that the best strategy isn’t just about speed. It’s about balancing performance,
energy efficiency, and tool process durability.

📊 The results speak for themselves: depending on the chosen method, differences in cycle time and energy consumption can be significant.

👉 A well-thought-out approach means higher productivity and lower hidden costs !

🚀 These advancements are part of the SCORE project, an initiative focused on innovation, sustainability, and efficiency in manufacturing.
