M612 face mill is engineered specifically for the rough-machining of stainless steel turbo housings. The tool’s positive geometry has the effect of providing a smoother cutting action, which helps machine shops to eliminate vibration. In turn, higher metal removal rates can be achieved, leading to shorter cycles.
Its positive geometry provides smooth cutting action, which lowers power consumption and eliminates vibrations in roughing operations. This permits greater metal removal and quicker cycle times, which in combination with 12 cutting edges (six on both sides), contributes to lower cost per component. The choice of round inserts also adds flexibility for machine shops, while the insert indexation interface delivers both accuracy and repeatability.
- For challenging roughing operations
- Positive geometry provides smooth cutting action, which lowers the power consumption and eliminates vibrations
- 12 cutting edges, six on both sides, for reduced cost per part
- Round inserts for increased flexibility and a high metal removal rate
- Shim for extra protection of the cutter body
- Not necessary to completely remove the screw in order to index another insert cutting edge
- A visual dimple has been machined to a rapid check on the edge position
- Face and interpolation milling
- Maximum depth of cut 3 mm (0.1 in.) to keep positive cutting action
