Sandvik Coromant's CoroMill 490 now offers 10 mm depth of cut

CoroMill 490, the milling cutter from Sandvik Coromant that can shoulder mill, face mill, edge, contour, slice and slot, in all materials, can now take up to 10 mm depth of cut.

Released as part of CoroPak 10.1, a 14 mm insert for the CoroMill 490 family is designed for larger depths of cut up to 10 mm. The 14 mm insert is introduced in an extensive programme of cutter bodies with a diameter range 40 mm to 250 mm, with grades and geometries for steel and cast iron machining. It is claimed customers can expect to reduce machining costs by up to 25 per cent, on average.
