It usually starts at the tooling level to significantly improve metal removing rates. At MAQ, we acted on that belief by implementing radical design changes to improve our [Self-Tuning Mass Damper™ (STMD) technology in milling applications](https://www.maqab.com/vibration-damped-machining-tool-product/vibration-damped-milling-tool/). By using our milling tool holders, you can achieve these benefits: - Increase metal removal rates up to 50% when compared to other best in class damped tools, including long reach applications requiring L/D ratios over 3 - Reduce cycle times (go twice as fast, from 5 m/s to 10 m/s) - Double the number of cutting edges compared to conventional tool holders For an in-depth explanation of the research behind our technology and the development of milling tool holders, [read this technical paper](https://hub.maqab.com/whitepaper) by [Dr. Qilin Fu, CTO, and one of our co-founders.](https://www.maqab.com/about/) [![Learn How It Works!](https://no-cache.hubspot.com/cta/default/4750017/f006246d-b88d-43a5-8244-6ff5499dfb7c.png)](https://cta-redirect.hubspot.com/cta/redirect/4750017/f006246d-b88d-43a5-8244-6ff5499dfb7c) ![MAQ Simplify Machining](https://hub.maqab.com/hubfs/Maqab_May2019%20/Images/logo-white.png "MAQ logo: Simplify Machining") [![innoenergy](https://hub.maqab.com/hs-fs/hubfs/innoenergy.png?width=113&name=innoenergy.png)](http://www.innoenergy.com/) - ![Mail](https://hub.maqab.com/hubfs/Maqab_May2019%20/Images/mail.png) [info@maqab.com](mailto:info@maqab.com) - ![Phone](https://hub.maqab.com/hubfs/Maqab_May2019%20/Images/phone.png) Office:  [+46 70 486 97 82](tel:+46%2070%20486%2097%2082) Sales:  [+46 73 203 83 31](tel:+46%2073%20203%2083%2031)[tel:+46%2073%20203%2083%2031](tel:+46%2073%20203%2083%2031) Tech support : [+46 79 075 92 91](tel:+46%2079%20075%2092%2091) - ![Location](https://hub.maqab.com/hubfs/Maqab_May2019%20/Images/location.png) MAQ AB Stenhuggarvagen 1 13238 Saltsjo-Boo, Sweden [![Twitter](https://hub.maqab.com/hubfs/Maqab_May2019%20/Images/twitter.png)](https://www.twitter.com/maq_ab) [![Linkedin](https://hub.maqab.com/hubfs/Maqab_May2019%20/Images/linkedin.png)](https://www.linkedin.com/company/maq-ab/) [![Instagram](https://hub.maqab.com/hubfs/Maqab_May2019%20/Images/glyph-logo_May2016-white.png)](https://www.instagram.com/maq_stmd/) - [Products](https://www.maqab.com/products/) - [Technology](https://www.maqab.com/technology/) - [Users](https://www.maqab.com/users/) - [About](https://www.maqab.com/about/) - [Distributors](https://www.maqab.com/distributor/) - [Contact](https://www.maqab.com/contact/) - [Request a Quote](https://www.maqab.com/rfq/) © MAQ AB  - All Rights Reserved | [Privacy Policy](https://app.termly.io/document/privacy-policy/87576fc3-b88f-4fbd-bc0b-48873ced1dcf) - [![en](https://hub.maqab.com/hubfs/Maqab_May2019%20/Images/en.png "English")English](https://www.maqab.com/) - [![de](https://hub.maqab.com/hubfs/Maqab_May2019%20/Images/de.png "Deutsch")Deutsch (German)](https://www.maqab.com/?lang=de)
