Circle Segment End Mills of the product line FRANKEN Expert

The special geometry of Circle Segment End Mills offers improved surface quality by simultaneous reduction of machining time. They focus on prefinishing and finishing operations on five-axis machining centres.

The specific technical features of these end mills are the large radii in the cutting area of the tools. Their geometry represents a part of a circle, a circle segment. The large radius simulates a ball-nose end mill with a cutting diameter of 12 to 3.000 mm. As a result, the axial depth of cut can be enlarged and simultaneous the surface quality will be improved. Due to enlarged axial depth of cut, the machining time for prefinishing and finishing operations on five-axis-machining centres will be reduced significantly.

These tools are primarily used in mould-making as well as in production of turbine blades or blisks. To cover various applications, these end mills are available in four different basic shapes: Barrel-shape, Oval form, Taper form and Lens-shape. All basic shapes are available in different diameters and lengths.

An important role plays the CAM-System, which has to support and compute the geometry of the circle segment end mills. The CAM-System hyperMill of Open Mind offers the ideal milling cycle for each Circle Segment End Mill.

An economic calculation with detailed cost- and time savings is available at www.frankenexpert.com.

NEW: trochoidal milling end mill by EMUGE FRANKEN

The FRANKEN solid carbide end mills are offered in Jet-Cut geometry for applications in steel or cast materials and in TiNox geometry for applications in stainless steel materials and several alloys. Both types are available in three cutting lengths (2xD, 3xD, 4xD).

To cover the requirements of trochoidal machining, the end mills feature low-vibration characteristics such as variable spacing and variable helix angle or a new micro-geometry. The newly developed chip divider reduces the axial pull-out force of the tool and minimizes the risk of chip jams in pockets. The short chips can easily be removed with compressed air or emulsi...

EMUGE Enorm-Z Taps made of HSSE-PM for long-chipping materials

The EMUGE Z-series has been developed especially for machining on CNC-controlled machines. Their geometry is made for blind hole threads. The taps are offered in two coating versions, with or without internal coolant supply.

The new Z-Taps are available in two coating versions. In a first step they are designed for metric threads M4 to M10 according DIN 13 and M12 according DIN 376. The TIN-60 coated version is the specialist for steel materials and shows its strengths especially at steel materials with a tensile strength between 600 and 1,000 N/mm². A key role for the outstanding performanc...

EMUGE BASIC-DRILL for universal use

The EMUGE twist drill programme is being expanded with the new BASIC product line, which is designed for universal use, with steel materials being the focus of the tool design.

The price and performance requirements of customers who machine a variety of different materials with the same tool determined the product development. The carbide grade, the coating and the shape of the cutting edge were optimised for universal use. For example, the curved cutting edge produces very short chips and shapes the chip so that it can be easily removed from t...
