Arbortech Cutters for Precision Wood Shaping and Carving

Commonly used with angle grinders and specialised power carving tools, these cutters are engineered for shaping, sculpting, hollowing, and texturing solid timber with accuracy and repeatability.

Unlike traditional abrasive wheels, Arbortech cutters use precision-machined teeth or tungsten carbide inserts to cut rather than grind. This results in cleaner finishes, reduced heat build-up, and greater efficiency when working with hardwoods, softwoods, and green timber. Their design helps minimise clogging and kickback, making them well suited to both fine detail work and aggressive stock removal.

Choosing the correct cutter and operating it at the recommended speed is essential for safe and effective use. Proper technique, secure workholding, and appropriate personal protective equipment all play a vital role in achieving professional results while extending the life of the cutter.

FAQs

What are Arbortech cutters used for?

Arbortech cutters are used for shaping, carving, and hollowing timber. They are popular for sculptural work, bowl carving, furniture components, and organic timber designs where controlled material removal is required.

Can Arbortech cutters be used on hardwood?

Yes, many Arbortech cutters are designed to perform effectively on Australian hardwoods as well as softwoods. Tungsten carbide cutters in particular offer excellent durability and cutting performance on dense timber species.

How do I maintain Arbortech cutters?

Maintenance typically involves cleaning resin and debris from the cutter after use and inspecting cutting edges for damage. Tungsten carbide cutters generally do not require sharpening but should be replaced when worn.
