Dormer Pramet has expanded its range of milling cutters for tool and mold making as well as for general machining with new components. These include the new double-sided WSP SNGX11 for milling at high feeds with a cutting depth of up to 1,7 mm.
The robust cutting edge guarantees a high level of durability and process reliability - especially when pocket milling. With eight blades, the square SNGX11 indexable insert is also a very economical solution. The inserts, which are available in two geometries, are quite versatile. For example, in copy milling, circular milling, ramps, progressive dipping and face milling. The M geometry is intended for cutting steel, but also hardened steel and cast iron. MM is also suitable for stainless steel, softer steels and superalloys with a softer cut.
The plate assortment is supplemented by the new SSN11 milling cutter with diameters from 32 to 125 mm and intermediate sizes for applications in tool and mold making. All cutters have special coolant channels to further improve process reliability. They also provide a high overhang to support milling at depths of up to 10xD.
The proven milling program ADMX07 also received an addition: an F geometry for finishing and semi-finishing. The extension complies with the existing M, FA and HF geometries and aims at the ease of machining stainless steel and low carbon steels. The chipbreaker is very well suited for vibration-sensitive machining and offers extremely positive geometry with a narrow edge area. This reduces rattling and allows a smooth cutting without burrs on the machined wall.
