Mikron chamfering and radius tools from Floyd Automatic Tooling

For deburring, chamfering and finish machining operations, Floyd Automatic Tooling has now launched the new CrazyMill from Mikron Tool.

This innovative new tooling system is available in three ranges, the Frontchamfer, Backchamfer and the Universal Radius Chamfer, with the option of application-specific specials available upon request. The CrazyMill Frontchamfer series of chamfer milling cutters is available from 1 to 6 mm diameter in 1 mm increments, making it suitable for machining the smallest of workpieces with the ability to reach practically all angles and corners. The Frontchamfer series has four to six teeth, depending upon diameter. This unusually high number of teeth on small diameter cutters delivers exceptional surface finishes, while allowing the end user to increase feed rates by 50 per cent, when compared to competitor products. The Frontchamfer is available with a 90° angle as standard, with specific angles and number of teeth available upon request. The Backchamfer series is an innovative new range that enables the operator to machine the back or underside of a workpiece, without the need for time-consuming re-setting or re-clamping of the component. This chamfer mill allows the machining of holes from as small as 0.4 mm diameter with its diameter range including, with the largest cutter in the range being 5.7 mm cutters, a range that is matched to Mikron's CrazyDrill program. For all round deburring operations, Mikron has developed its Universal Radius Chamfer Tool, with a 300° cutting area. This spherical range of cutters is ideal for front and backside deburring, as well as all kind of internal and external contours and intersections of drilling and milling procedures. The ball diameter is available in 0.5 mm increments from 1 to 3 mm, with additional 4 and 6 mm cutters available. For individual component-specific requirements, CrazyMill can produce special tools that include front and back chamfering, simultaneous front chamfering and backside deburring, back side deburring and double chamfering on the frontside and multiple chamfer milling cutters with up to 10 chamfers.
