High Productivity Cutting Endmills

December 01, 2010

December 12010- Emuge Corp. announced they offer new High Productivity Cutting (HPC) End Mills designed to address a broader range of applications. Building on the success of the MULTI-Jet Cut end mills, which permit rapid material removal of a wide range of materials, Emuge has added new designs that extend the range of application to include the ability to perform complex 3-D machining, as well as roughing and pre-finishing operations. Emuge HPC End Mills are made from select micro-grain carbide and offer increased reliability and efficient chip evacuation for maximum cutting performance and tool life.

"HPC End Mills feature a combination of cutting tool technologies like variable pitch and flute spacing to minimize vibrations, even at high speeds and substantial cutting depths," said Mr. Stephen Jean, Milling Products Manager, Emuge Corp. "Material removal rates of up to ten times that of conventional end mills can be achieved with Emuge HPC End Mills."

  • 3-D

    3-D

    Way of displaying real-world objects in a natural way by showing depth, height and width. This system uses the X, Y and Z axes.

  • gang cutting ( milling)

    gang cutting ( milling)

    Machining with several cutters mounted on a single arbor, generally for simultaneous cutting.

  • milling

    milling

    Machining operation in which metal or other material is removed by applying power to a rotating cutter. In vertical milling, the cutting tool is mounted vertically on the spindle. In horizontal milling, the cutting tool is mounted horizontally, either directly on the spindle or on an arbor. Horizontal milling is further broken down into conventional milling, where the cutter rotates opposite the direction of feed, or “up” into the workpiece; and climb milling, where the cutter rotates in the direction of feed, or “down” into the workpiece. Milling operations include plane or surface milling, endmilling, facemilling, angle milling, form milling and profiling.

  • pitch

    pitch

    1. On a saw blade, the number of teeth per inch. 2. In threading, the number of threads per inch.
