TaeguTec AluPlusMill aluminium milling cutters

Speeds and feeds up to 24,000 rpm and 5 m/min, for machining aluminium and aluminium alloys, are achieved even for longer cutter lengths via increased rigidity from innovative core and geometry design. The 2-flute AluPlusMill is available from 1 to 4 mm diameter, in 0.5 mm increments, and from 4 to 20 mm, in 1 mm increments. The series has an overall length ranging from 47 to 110 mm, with a cut length, from 3 to 55 mm. The 3-flute series is available from 3 to 25 mm diameter, in 1 mm increments, with a length of cut from 6 to 75 mm and an overall length of 47 to 140 mm. The strengthened core diameter improves rigidity of the cutting edge while the enhanced vibration dampening properties, compared to the existing AluMill end mill deliver higher productivity levels and improved tool life. The core diameter works in harmony with an improved gash geometry that minimises cutting edge stress and drastically reduces the potential for the cutting edge to crack and chip. This ensures consistent tool life and performance. With a UF10 micro grain carbide structure, the cutter's surface enhances surface finishes, improves wear resistance and swarf evacuation.
