High-volume machining of aluminium

New milling cutters made of solid carbide and with indexable inserts

MAPAL is launching two new products for high-volume milling of aluminium, thus expanding its portfolio for the aerospace industry. The two milling cutter series in solid carbide and with indexable inserts are particularly suitable for use on high-performance machines.

OptiMill®-Alu-Wave

High-volume machining at over 20 l/min.

The new solid carbide roughing cutter Opti-Mill-Alu-Wave for aluminium materials takes full advantage of the performance of the fastest machines on the market, achieving a material removal rate of up to 21 litres per minute.

The cord roughing cutter has large, flat shafts for optimal chip formation. Polished chip flutes facilitate chip removal. The three-side cutter is fitted with central cooling and a modified face geometry, which enables ramp angles up to 30 degrees. The OptiMill-Alu-Wave is not only ideal for aerospace structural parts but also for applications in the automotive field and general machine engineering. 

Diameter ranges from 12 to 25 mm with projection lengths short, medium and long are available. Further variations are configurable, so close-contour roughing is also supported.

NeoMill®-Alu-QBig

切除率高，切削力低，表面质量高

对于较大直径，新型 NeoMill-Alu-QBig可转位刀片铣刀是一种非常经济的解决方案。这些铣刀提供最高效率，切除率高达18升每分钟。得益于高强度螺钉和精密动平衡系统，该刀具可以应用高达35,000 min-1的转速。低切削力和高精度可转位刀片的结合可实现高表面质量。内部冷却和大型切屑存储空间可确保最佳的散热和排屑效果。根据具体应用，铣刀可配备无涂层切削刃、PVD 涂层可转位刀片和 CVD 金刚石涂层可转位刀片。H S K 或S K 柄部可供的直径范围为3 2 至63 mm，也有分体式型号。
