Visiting Chicago for IMTS 2010? Sandvik Coromant has some sightseeing tips for you. Visit the Smart Hub at IMTS booth W-1500 for the tooling solutions to think smart, work smart, earn smart. We’ll see you there.
In milling, thick chips on exit lead to edge failure and poor tool life. A thick chip on entrance and thin chip on exit will ensure the smallest chip thickness possible.
Milling cutters that have a very small lead angle are a smart choice for high feed machining with low cutting depths, and applications with long and weak setups.
Use the technique of rolling into cut to avoid vibration, poor finish and poor quality. Easing the inserts into cut will create a thick chip on entry and a thin chip on exit, resulting in increased surface finish and part quality.
Optimize productivity by selecting the right milling cutter for your operation. Choose square-shoulder milling cutters for components with thin surfaces, in instances of unstable fixturing, on machines with weak spindles, or when you need to produce a 90-degree shoulder.
The wiper insert WMX is a first-choice, all-round solution for finishing to roughing in general turning. It lifts wiper turning to a new level of productivity and results. The WM and WF wiper inserts continue to have a complementary function as optimizers, each having its peripheral strengths. WM has a strong cutting edge that is ideal for interrupted cuts, while WF has a sharper edge with the capability for really fine cuts.
CoroMill 490 is a family of end mill tools that cuts the cost of small- and medium-batch face and shoulder milling, especially for smaller depths of cut. CoroMill 490’s insert geometries provide consistently high components in a productive and predictable way, with better tolerances. The tool is designed to give a finished product in one pass. The versatility of CoroMill 490 reduces costs for face and shoulder milling as the industry’s new standard milling tool, replacing stocks and simplifying production control.
S40T is developed for difficult conditions in titanium milling. It combines cemented carbide, having high toughness, with a thin CVD coating. The result is a grade that withstands vibration and other difficult cutting conditions for longer times in cut. The wear is predictable, making the cutting edge gradually duller without breaking.
S30T has been developed with productive titanium milling in focus. It combines the properties of micro-grain carbide and a wear resistant PVD coating.
The advantages of solid carbide tooling, such as more teeth engaged, light cutting action, precise radial cutting edges and the possibility of axial feed, can improve performance and improve tool inventory.
