Milling cutter

Milling cutters are widely used multi-edged rotary cutters. Divided by purpose: 1) For machining planes, such as cylindrical face milling cutters, end mills, etc.; 2) For machining grooves, such as end mills, T-knifes, and angle cutters; 3) Forming the surface Used, such as convex semi-circular and concave semi-circular cutters and milling cutters for machining other complex forming surfaces.

According to the cutting movement mode and the corresponding blade shape, the tool can be divided into three categories.

General-purpose tools, such as turning tools, planers, milling cutters (not including shaped turning tools, shaping planers, and forming cutters), boring tools, drills, reamers, reamers, saws, etc.; forming tools, cutting edges of such tools It has the same or nearly the same shape as the cross-section of the workpiece to be machined, such as forming lathes, forming planers, forming cutters, broaches, conical reamers, and various thread cutting tools, etc.; Teeth or similar workpieces, such as hobs, pinions, shavers, bevel gears, bevel gear cutters, etc.

Diamond-coated cutters have different life spans

The
As with any other tool, the life of diamond-coated tools varies, depending on the material being cut, the feed rate and cutting speed selected, and the geometry of the workpiece. In general, diamond-coated cutters for processing graphite are 10-20 times longer than uncoated carbide cutters and may even be longer in some cases. In this way, you can use a single tool to perform almost any machining task, without the need for tool change due to tool wear, to avoid machining interruptions and recalibration, which makes it possible to achieve unattended processing. It is also entirely possible to obtain long tool life in the processing of composite materials.
