FRANKEN End Mills for Trochoidal Machining
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 emulsion thus avoiding a repeated pull-through of chips.
New high-performance coatings and an optimally suited carbide substrate round off the performance of these new tool types.
