Flexibility and economy: Seco shoulder milling cutter sets industry standard



Shan Gaofang Shoulder Milling Cutter - Square 6 Rubik's Cube

Seco Tools, a global tool manufacturer, has introduced a unique square shoulder cutter - Square 6 cube. In a wide range of applications, the new multi-blade tool offers significant breakthroughs in terms of economy, flexibility and productivity.

Seco Tools are known for innovation, especially when it comes to specialized shoulder milling cutters and inserts. The company's Turbo Cyclone series shoulder milling cutters are at the forefront of fully exploiting the potential of computer-controlled machining. The combination of advanced control and the Turbo whirlwind series enables helical and ramp milling.

In order to inherit the company's tradition of providing leading tooling solutions, Seco Tools' Square 6 cube milling cutters extend the industry-leading Turbo product line. The goal of the Seco R&D team is to develop a square shoulder milling cutter based on a multi-blade insert solution that is flexible enough to handle a wide range of applications and is strong enough to withstand higher feed rates. The most important thing is to have very good economy.

“The goal of the project is to provide clear requirements for such tools through market research, which allows us to expand the brisk and high-performance Turbo cyclone series,” explains Balázs Siszer, product manager at Seco Tools. “We also understand that many of the first factors customers consider when choosing a cutting tool are not the pure tool price, but how good the tool's machining performance is. That is, how cost-effective the tool is.”

Multi-blade tools are now firmly established on the market, but the Square 6 cube-side shoulder milling cutters are unique. Its features and performance are the result of a combination of proven technology and innovative design options. In addition to square shoulder milling, there are a number of machining operations that can be used with Square 6 cube milling cutters. These machining include milling, slot milling and plunge milling.

Unique blade

The Square 6 Rubik's Cube Shoulder Mill has a unique blade with 6 cutting edges - 3 90° cutting edges per face. Each cutting edge produces a true 90° cut, eliminating the need for two passes to achieve a 90° straight wall. The blade features a novel triangular design that is classified as Class X according to the ISO system.

Only one large size central locking screw is used to clamp a thick and strong insert that is placed in the same direction as the cutting force for maximum processing stability. The strength of the blade is critical, as Seco Tools originally decided in the development project: the tool must have comparable performance and load bearing capacity as other milling cutters in the corresponding range, and higher than previous multi-edge tools. performance.

Adnan Agic, a research and development engineer at Seco Tools, explained that the body of the Square 6 cube milling cutter also contributed to the high performance of the tool. He pointed out: "The blade represents only half of the performance improvement of the Square 6 cube. The other half relies on the newly designed body with the best durability and corrosion resistance. It is also pre-hardened and has excellent rigidity, making the blade The seat has better machining accuracy."

“The chip flutes of the cutter body are designed to cope with the various characteristics of the chips and materials. When needed, each chip flute can have an internal cooling hole for direct flushing. In addition, in order to meet the needs of multi-tasking processing solutions. The target, the body can provide a diameter range of 40 - 160 mm."

Unattended production

The combination of high-strength blades, large-size fastening screws, safe chip evacuation and a robust body means that the Square 6 cube milling cutter is very stable for a wide range of machining applications. These applications include unattended production solutions that depend on the needs of a particular process.

For machining applications and workpiece materials, the versatility of the Square 6 cube milling cutter is further enhanced by the existing blade series and the pitch pattern of the tool body (tight teeth, standard pitch and sparse teeth). The slot geometry options for the Square 6 cube milling cutter include: ME09 for mild steel and stainless steel; M13 for steel and cast iron; and MD15 for steel, cast iron and higher feeds. There are two different tool nose arc radii. When processing the 1-6 sets of materials, the new material grade MP3000 not only provides optimum performance, but also extends tool life.

During the development period, the successful global trial of the Square 6 cube milling cutter proved that its design concept is practical and demonstrates the high efficiency of the tool in a variety of applications and materials. This tool is a product that uses leading technology and combines a variety of different bodies, inserts and geometries. It has achieved its promise to be the most versatile and economical multi-edge shoulder milling cutter on the market.
