Two-flute end mill series unveiled by Quickgrind

Quickgrind has introduced its Alligator Duo series of two-flute end mills. The mills are available with standard or aluminium geometries to meet a diverse application range.

Not setting its stall on ‘standard’ catalogue dimensions, Quickgrind is offering the Alligator Duo series in a complete range of lengths and diameters, with the choice of a long reach and short-flute geometry, a long reach and long flute, or even as a stub-length tool for optimal rigidity.

The Alligator Duo is available with several geometry options to suit roughing, semi-finishing and finish machining. Quickgrind can also provide the Alligator Duo series in a square-end or ball-nose configuration to serve profile machining applications, as well as a ‘zero-dished’ option for fine surface finish machining on flat surfaces.

The team at Quickgrind is able to deliver productivity gains by optimising metal removal rates (MRR) and tool life. In-house experts achieve this outcome by applying its processes and expertise to match client application requirements with the correct technology adoption.

When manufacturers realise that there is little cost difference between standard products and tailored solutions, they become Quickgrind customers, says the company.
