Cemented Carbide Tool Applications

Milling Application Notes

Cemented carbide tools:
Should try to choose the best rigidity, the maximum diameter of the slot length shortest and the shortest total length end mills
Long edge cutter does not apply to the cavity milling, slotting or strong profiling - limited Rw 0.02D
High-performance tool has a shorter processing time, a longer life

Handle:
The shank is required to have sufficient clamping force and a sufficiently small rotary beating
Recommended use for heavy cutting short and thick entities the shank or zero length collets shank
The using entity shank, is not recommended to use the manual wrench

Artifact:
Firmly clamp the workpiece will reduce tremor and deflection

Machine:
To ensure the hilt achieve maximum run out accuracy and tool life, the spindle must be in the best condition
To achieve the recommended speed and feed rate, the machine should have sufficient power
To prevent damage to the workpiece or tool for low-power machines should reduce the amount of feed

Cooling:
The jet law or liquid coolant to avoid swarf "secondary milling"
Cleaning and having an appropriate concentration to maintain the cooling liquid

General recommendations:
Water-soluble oil or jet law: tool steel, tool steel, carbon steel or alloy steel;
Water-soluble oil: stainless steel, titanium, high temperature alloys, non-ferrous metals.

Method:
Recommends using climb milling
Attention to detail, shank, jumping, balancing, fixture. Improve tool performance and extend tool life.

Universal cutting tool types: d1 = cutting diameter, l2 = slot length

Slotted Profiling Fine milling
slotted profiling fine milling

Feed mode

Pre-drilled feed Spiral feed Oblique feed Vertical feed
pre-drilled feed spiral feed oblique feed vertical feed
Most applications are recommended pre-drilled feed The helical feed and oblique feed as an alternative, when the lower knife slotted speed and 25-50% slotted feed rate. General tool feed angle is 5 °, the feed angle of the high-performance tool is 5% to 10%. Only cutting non-ferrous metals and short chipping materials can be selected vertical feed under the knife slotted speed and 25% slotted feed rate
