With the introduction of more than 3,000 new cutting tools in inch sizes, Walter takes the lead in solid carbide milling. This expansion includes shoulder/slot mills for cutting super alloys and other high-temperature alloys, titanium and stainless steel (ISO S and M material groups) at the highest level.

The MA377/MA373 Supreme milling cutters (4,5 and 6 flutes) for machining titanium and stainless steels are available in sizes from 1/8 to 1¼ inch diameter. The tools are available with or without corner radii, and with or without chip splitters. With Walter's optimized tool coatings, these mills are suitable for slotting, peripheral milling, trochoidal milling and high-efficiency milling. The offered chipbreaker reduces chip nesting issues and deflection stemming from excess tool pressure.

The MD177/MD173 Supreme milling cutters (7 flutes) have more teeth to boost productivity when machining titanium and high-temperature alloys. The tools are available in sizes from ¼ to 1 inch diameter. The uneven pitch on the tools reduces vibration and allows the entire length of the cutting edge to be used to provide uniform wear. The cutting tools supply outstanding productivity and process reliability.

The MD177 cutter creates exceptionally smooth surfaces without "waterlines." The MD173 is equipped with chipbreakers that provide outstanding process reliability with high metal removal rates.

The MA375 Supreme cutter (4,5 and 7 flutes) is for roughing and finishing Inconel and other nickel-base super alloys. The tool is available in sizes from 1/8 to 1 inch diameter and features a variable helix and variable indexing to help reduce chatter and boost productivity. The 4 and 5 flute versions are for aggressive slotting up to ½ inch diameter, peripheral milling and trochoidal machining. The 7-flute mill is designed for dynamic machining and excels at high workpiece hardness levels.

The Walter lineup of products consists of three categories of tools. Supreme tools indicate the highest level of technology and performance available. Advance tools indicate products efficiently balanced between price and performance and Perform tools are products that provide an economical solution with focused importance on price.
