Extended range of CoroMill® Dura versatile solid end mills

Cutting tool specialist Sandvik Coromant is expanding its line of CoroMill® Dura versatile solid end mills with aluminium-specific tools.

“These new truly versatile end mills for aluminium machining are developed for excellent capabilities in all applications”, says Antti Wikström, Global Product Manager, Solid end mills at Sandvik Coromant. “The very stable cutting, small burr, good surfaces and minimal vibrations is a combination hard to beat for a versatile end mill like this.”

“One of the main advantages with the new CoroMill® Dura aluminium-specific end mills is their versatile performance in all different types of roughing applications, while also offering finishing capabilities”, Wikström continues. “Up to 2×D full slot, pocketing, 5–20° ramping, shoulder milling and more — all with the same end mill.”

Another advantage is Sandvik Coromant’s unique helix concept WhisperKut™ — where each flute is carefully oriented, unequally spaced from the others and has its own individually adapted helix angle, effectively breaking up harmful harmonics. This design successfully eliminates vibrations, resulting in silent, safe and efficient machining.

The standard assortment offers diameters from 2–25 mm, depths of cut between 1.5–3×D, neck options, extended reach cutters, sharp and corner radius. Tailor Made® options include coated grades for more abrasive aluminiums, specific diameters, corner designs and shank options.

To make tool selection easier, online tool selector CoroPlus® Tool Guide for CoroMill® Dura assists with tool and cutting data recommendations. ”Having the right cutting data is of course a prerequisite for both secure and efficient machining”, says Wikström. “In CoroPlus® Tool Guide for CoroMill® Dura we can give the most accurate starting values for a specific application. And if you have a CAM software with CoroPlus® Tool guide plug-in it makes it even easier — you get the most relevant cutting data recommendations directly into your CAM program.”
