Taper Shank End Mills

Taper shank end mills are also known as Morse taper shank end mills, with specifications ranging from 6mm to 100mm. It consists of a blade and a Morse taper.

Uses: Morse taper shank end mills (coarse teeth) are used for rough machining of planes, steps, grooves, and mutually perpendicular planes.

Features and accuracy: The number of teeth of the milling cutter is small, the chip space is large, and it is suitable for rough machining.

Climb milling helps prevent edge damage and increases tool life. But there are two points to pay attention to: ① If using ordinary machine tools, try to eliminate the gap of the feed mechanism; ② When the surface of the workpiece is left with an oxide film or other hardened layer formed by the casting or forging process, up-milling should be used.

Keyway milling cutter difference

1. The keyway milling cutter cannot process the plane, while the end mill can process the plane.

2. The keyway milling cutter is mainly used for processing keyway and groove, and the keyway milling cutter is very useful for milling keyway. For example, a 6MM end mill and a keyway milling cutter 6MM are more likely to be slotted than a 6MM end mill, and the end mill is easy to break, while the keyway milling cutter can pass through it in one go.

3. The cutting amount of the keyway milling cutter is larger than that of the end mill.

What is the difference between a milling cutter and a drill

Difference 1. Different uses

Milling cutters are mainly used for machining planes, steps, grooves, forming surfaces and cutting workpieces on milling machines;

The drill bit is one of the important tools for oil drilling and is generally used for drilling.

Difference two, different categories

The milling cutter is divided into sharp tooth milling cutter and spade tooth milling cutter; drill bit is divided into diamond bit, roller bit and scraper bit.

A milling cutter is a rotary tool with one or more teeth for milling. When working, each cutter tooth cuts off the allowance of the workpiece intermittently in turn.
