For different cutting depths
Milling cutter with corner radius and neck relief
With the new MC232 Perform solid carbide milling cutters, Walter is rounding off its portfolio and breaking new ground at the same time: For the first time, the Tübingen-based tool specialists are launching a milling cutter in the economical Perform line with a corner radius and neck relief.
The Walter range in the MC232-Perform family now includes solid carbide milling cutters with and without neck grinding or corner radius in a total of 126 dimensions, from a diameter of 2 to 20 mm. The milling cutters can be used for all typical milling applications (side milling, full grooving, pocket milling, helical plunging, angular plunging) and are suitable for different materials and milling strategies.
Solid carbide milling cutters with corner radii fulfill an important market requirement. This is because the corner radius enables the user to respond better to individual component geometries. It also improves the service life of the milling cutter, as the edge stability is increased. The neck relief, in turn, makes the milling cutter more flexible because the user can use it with more different cutting depths.
Other features of the Perform line have been adopted, such as the high level of cost-effectiveness for small and medium batch sizes and the company's own WJ30ED grade, which ensures high wear resistance. The main applications for the MC232 Perform are ISO-P materials, with ISO M and ISO K being named as secondary applications. The new milling cutters should be of particular interest to job shoppers and manufacturers with frequently changing orders or quantities.
