The cross-cut (MX) design is made for general-purpose use and is widely applicable for machining various materials. This tooth type is particularly advantageous because it effectively combines fine and coarse cutting abilities, making it excellent for a variety of machining tasks, whether smoothing surfaces, shaping contours, or heavier material removal. The MX cross-cut ensures an even finish on the workpiece surface while reducing vibration and increasing the tool's lifespan.
Special tools and techniques are used for machining small-angled shapes and surfaces, capable of handling narrow angles and edges with precision. In such cases, pointed routers or tools with fine teeth are often used to shape sharp, small-angled edges precisely. These tools are ideal for workpieces where precise angles and smooth surfaces are essential, such as in the creation of complex geometric shapes or special joints.
