An end mill is a tool with a cylindrical or conical shank and a sharpened cutting edge on its other side. Shanks are grasped by a chuck of a machine. Cutting edges impact a workpiece.
End mills are used for milling materials of different hardness. Removing material from a workpiece surface is performed by the sharpened cutting edge.
- face milling;
- profile milling;
- shoulder milling;
- pocket milling;
- chamfering.
- structural steel;
- alloy steel;
- increased hardness high-carbon steels (up to 65 HRC);
- medium strength stainless steels;
- hard-to-process stainless steels;
- various types of cast iron;
- non-ferrous alloys;
- plastics;
- wood;
- composite material.
The modern processing industry uses a wide range of cutting tools. Burrs are one of the highly demanded types of tools.
A burr is a tool consisting of a carbide working part and a steel or carbide shank.
Using hard metals due to high wear resistance and heat resistance makes it possible to increase cutting speed and as a result to increase productivity. Rotation speed up to 50 rpm is commonly used while working with burrs. Pneumatic or electric tools are used to work with burrs.
- steel, including hard-to-machine steel;
- cast iron;
- non-ferrous metals;
- wood;
- composite materials.
- weld dressing;
- castings fettling;
- deburring;
- machining of hard-to-reach surfaces;
- engraving.
