New CoroMill®Plura routers, optimized for composites, have patented geometries suited to the aerospace industry. Available as standard items for fast ordering, they are designed for high productivity and have the longest tool life on the market.

In our comprehensive range of CoroMill® Plura end mills, you find your choice, whether you need a tool that is optimized for a specific material or one that performs well in many materials.

The range of tools includes high-performance solutions for high-speed machining, die-making, and high feed machining; from heavy roughing to super-finishing in most materials, whether it is in difficult-to-cut materials or very hard steels, up to 63 HRC.

The CoroMill Plura offer

Optimized tools with geometries and grades for specific materials and applications, maximizing production output per time unit.

Flexible tools designed for high performance and secure machining in a
variety of materials, applications, component sizes and shapes, allowing
maximum machine utilization.

Features

Solid end mills
  • Optimized grades for all materials and conditions
  • Cylindrical, Weldon and iLock™ shank options
  • Straight, conical, with and without chip-dividing cutting edge tool shapes
  • With and without neck, undersized shanks available
  • PCD tipped end mills with internal coolant
  • Can be reconditioned up to three times to its original specification
Thread milling cutters
  • Four grades optimized for different ISO material groups
  • Two different designs available depending on the application, one with few cutting edges and one multi-point design
  • Cylindrical and Weldon shank options
  • Individual radius programming (RPRG) value marked on the shank, giving the exact pitch diameter and radius correction required for optimum thread q

Application

CoroMill Plura has a large assortment for heavy roughing to finishing and super-finishing.

Slotting
  • Heavy duty end mills with an extremely tough grade and optimized flute shape for effective chip evacuation offer full slot milling up to two times the diameter
Shoulder milling
  • End mills with unequal helix angle for stability and excellent surface finish in high feed side milling operations
  • Heavy duty end mills for shoulder milling with large engagements
Profiling
  • Wide range of ball nose end mills for all materials, including small cutter diameters down to 0.1 mm (0.004 inch), suitable for die and mould manufacturing where high precision is important
Chamfering
  • Tools for 45-degree and 60-degree chamfers and convex workpiece radius chamfers


High Feed Side (HFS) milling

  • Designed for utilization of the complete cutting length to allow for higher Q value (MRR) with smaller diameters compared to traditional milling strategies. 
    * Optimized for longer axial depth of cut, up to four times the tool diameter.
Thread milling
  • For both right- and left hand internal threads
  • Up to 3 × diameter
  • The threads are milled in one or more passes and the multi-point tool gives a true full profile 60-degree metric thread form. UNC, UNF, NPT, NPTF and G are available as options
    Thread form Range
    M? M1.6 to M28
    UNC? No. 1–64 to 3/4–10
    UNF? No. 2–64 to 3/4–16
    NPT? 1/8–27 to 1/2–14
    NPTF? 1/8–27 to 1/2–14
    G? G1/8 to G1"–3"
