In response to popular demand, the Carmex CMT line of toolholders and inserts for vertical thread milling has been expanded with the addition of C10 (10mm diameter) and C25 (25mm diameter) inserts and toolholders for smaller and larger diameters.
Available in a wide variety of thread forms and groove widths, the inserts, equipped with multi and spiral flutes, reportedly deliver shorter machining time, lower cutting pressure, and smooth cutting operation.

milling
Machining operation in which metal or other material is removed by applying power to a rotating cutter. In vertical milling, the cutting tool is mounted vertically on the spindle. In horizontal milling, the cutting tool is mounted horizontally, either directly on the spindle or on an arbor. Horizontal milling is further broken down into conventional milling, where the cutter rotates opposite the direction of feed, or “up” into the workpiece; and climb milling, where the cutter rotates in the direction of feed, or “down” into the workpiece. Milling operations include plane or surface milling, endmilling, facemilling, angle milling, form milling and profiling.
