New milling tools for maximum efficiency in series production
MAPAL offers new solutions for semi-finishing and finishing operations with NeoMill-16-Finish and NeoMill-16-Face
MAPAL is expanding the NeoMill milling cutter product range in the areas of semi-finishing and finishing of steel and cast-iron materials as well as roughing of aluminium components.
Just in time for EMO 2025 in Hanover, MAPAL expanded the NeoMill milling program with three new series specifically tailored to the requirements of series production: NeoMill 16 Finish, NeoMill 16 Face, and NeoMill Alu Rough. All three milling cutter series stand for high cost-effectiveness and process reliability as well as sustainable manufacturing – seamlessly integrating into the existing portfolio.”
NeoMill-16-Finish: Face milling cutters for next-level finishing
The NeoMill-16-Finish was developed for finishing tasks where requirements on surface finish and dimensional accuracy are high. With the combination of the pre-machining insert ONMU05 with 16 cutting edges and the OFGW07indexable insert with eight cutting edges for finishing, MAPAL offers a unique system with complete process reliability. The face milling cutters are available in standard sizes in the diameter range from 63 to 200 mm and enable easy setting of the finishing inserts. This makes surface qualities of up to Rz 4 µm possible.
NeoMill-16-Face: Efficiency in pre-machining for face milling
The NeoMill-16-Face is joining the portfolio for pre-machining. Cost-effectiveness is in focus here, too: the ONMU05 plate with 16 cutting edges ensures low costs per part and stable machining. The tools are available in diameters from 32 to 100 mm and are particularly suitable for series production of cast-iron and steel components with low stock removals (up to 2 mm).
NeoMill-Alu-Rough: Flexibility for aluminium machining
With the shoulder milling cutter and shell end face milling cutter NeoMill-Alu-Rough, MAPAL offers an innovative solution for roughing cast aluminium components in the automotive, aerospace and mechanical engineering industries. In the standard range, milling cutters with a single row of inserts are available at diameters from 50 to 160 mm. The NeoMill-Alu-Rough is available with multiple rows of inserts as a shell end face milling cutter with diameters of 63, 80 and 100 mm. Customer-specific tool solutions can also be configured. The combination of large chip spaces, tangential indexable inserts and a wide selection of cutting materials (PCD, coated or uncoated carbide, CVD diamond) ensure reliable chip removal and high stability – even with large chip volumes.
With the NeoMill programme, MAPAL has successfully served the milling tool market for series production for many years. With the newly developed NeoMill-16-Finish, NeoMill-16-Face and NeoMill-Alu-Rough series, the tool specialist is emphasising its expertise in the semi-finishing and finishing of steel and cast-iron materials and the roughing of aluminium.
The technology addresses the requirements of modern machining processes and is cost-effective, technically refined and easy to integrate.
