Seco Tools launched T4-12 LOEX12 – M09 CUTTING GEOMETRY FOR STICKY MATERIALS

By Niraj M Wanikar, Chief Editor, CNCTimes.com, 2017-03-20 10:56:00

The new LOEX12 – M09 insert geometry for the T4-12 tangential milling cutter family offers superior performance when machining sticky materials such as stainless steel, titanium, and other heat-resistant super alloys.

The new geometry increases tool life and brings the high metal removal rates of T4-12 to these material groups.

Featuring an optimised clearance angle to ensure consistent cutting forces across the entire cutting radii, the LOEX12 – M09 achieves an excellent surface finish in addition to the gains in tool life and productivity. The new geometry provides benefits across a broad range of materials, offering exceptional value in sticky materials common to the aerospace, power generation, and general machining segments.

RANGE OVERVIEW:

  • Corner radii from 0.8 mm (.03") to 6.3 mm (.25")
  • Four cutting edges in 0.8 mm (.03") to 4.00 mm (.157") radii
  • Two cutting edges in 5.0 mm (.197") and 6.3 mm (.25") radii
  • Maximum depth of cut: 12 mm (.5")
  • Eight grades for a wide range of materials, including stainless steel and high-temperature alloys

KEY BENEFITS

  • Low cutting forces
  • Tool life increases of up to 50%
  • Increased productivity
  • Smoother cutting
  • Process reliability
