MILL P 800 U S

The MILL P 800 U S features a torque-motor driven rotary/tilt trunnion-style table that contributes to the machine's continuous full 5-axis simultaneous movement for smooth part surface contouring. The high-performance, high dynamic torque motor drives eliminate backlash (pitch and reverse errors), friction, wear and heat generation. This equates to increased rigidity, longer lasting accuracy and less maintenance, unlike worm or G-driven type tables that often require significant amounts of maintenance because of their inherent mechanical play.

AJ Type Inserts

The new Neutral AJ Type inserts for non-ferrous metals join this lineup. Like their right-hand counterparts, these new inserts feature ground peripheral surface and polished rake face with a mirror-like finish for sharp cutting edges. This prevents the built-up edges to the cutting edge during machining, and achieving a high-quality, glossy finish. The large rake angle and deep inclination ensure excellent chip control with both right-hand and left-hand cutter bodies.

AM Type Insert

The new AM Type insert is designed for non-ferrous metal machining, featuring a sharp cutting edge achieved through ground peripheral surface and polished rake face to a mirror-like finish. This design reduces built-up edge during machining and ensures a high-quality, glossy surface finish. The insert grade "KS05F" is a fine-grained carbide that balances wear resistance and chipping resistance, providing exceptional reliability and stable performance across a wide range of applications.

TPW / EPW Type Milling Cutter Series

The addition to the "TPW / EPW Type" series includes CBN inserts designed for high-speed cast iron finishing. In addition to the economical 2-corner standard insert, a wiper insert option is also available to achieve excellent surface finish. The insert grade is High-content CBN "BX480," which consists of densely bonded medium-grain CBN. This grade offers high hardness, toughness, and superior thermal conductivity, making it suitable for high-speed machining at cutting speeds (Vc) exceeding 1000m/min.
