Endmills

OptiLine Six-Flute End Mill

Engineered from the ground up, the OptiLine six-flute end mill features a premium substrate and advanced tool geometry. The end mill’s asymmetrical variable helix and variable index flute configuration ensures enhanced stability during cutting operations and includes chip splitters designed for applications involving 2.5 x D cutting lengths. Refined cutting edges and CERATIZIT’s Dragonskin coating technology improve chip control and reduce adhesion for longer tool life.

VGM-NIK & the VGM3-AL

The HY-PRO® CARB VGM-NIK offers the following features & benefits: Variable Index - Reduces vibration during machining. Unique Flute Geometry - Maintains excellent cutting-edge sharpness and tool rigidity. EXO Coating – Provides longer tool life through exceptional wear and heat resistance. Chipbreaker – Creates small manageable chips.

MA230 Advance

MA230 Advance milling cutters adapt to most ISO materials and milling approaches. The extensive range includes options like corner radius, corner chamfers, reduced neck, and unequal helix. The helix pitch is meticulously aligned with the number of teeth, ensuring unmatched running smoothness. Your choice, your precision.

Westec 2023 Booth Visit with ARCH Cutting Tools

ARCH Cutting Tools highlighted its RECON360 service program at its booth during Westec 2023 in Long Beach, California. Just over a year old, RECON360 offers to:

  • restore solid round tools and indexable cutting tool bodies to OEM or new condition,
  • braze new carbide, CBN, PCD or ceramic edges on inserts and round tools,
  • reapply coating to tools,
  • regrind worn areas on inserts and solid round cutting tools,
  • resize inserts or solid round tools.

ISCAR TECH TALK - ISCAR Barrel Shaped Endmills

ISCAR recently expanded the application range of barrel-shaped endmills with new radial segment sizes. A broad range of “Barrel-Shaped” tools is now available including oval-profile barrel endmills intended for advanced semi-finish and finishing operations of 3D surface applications. The barrel endmills designed with a cutting as a segment of a large-diameter arc, reduce the number of passes and cusp height compared to conventional ball-nose mills and therefore ensure shorter cycle times and superb surface finish.

MultiTOOL Program

MultiTAP tapping solution ranges from cut taps to form taps in different coatings, in addition to taps with extended lengths. MultiTHREAD MILL is an ideal general-purpose, cost-effective thread milling solution for job shops where part applications and materials frequently change. MultiDRILL™ features affordable, high-quality solid carbide 3XD and 5XD drills for manufacturers that have limited quantity production runs or operate in a job shop environment with many materials.

Cera-Cut End Mills

Cera-Cut End Mills are designed for the consistent cutting of high-temperature resistant materials such as Inconel, Hastelloy, and Nimonic as well as the machining of hardened tool steels. Cera-Cut is also suitable for making interrupted cuts, and offers a tight cutting diameter tolerance ranging from -0.0008" to -0.0016" (-20 to -40 microns), depending on the tool diameter.
