Milling aluminum presents certain difficulties
Aluminum places special demands on the tool: its high ductility and tendency to form built-up edges make machining difficult.
Short service life & unstable quality
Without specifically adapted tools, these material properties lead to reduced wear protection and unstable machining processes. The result is shorter tool life and reduced process reliability.
But there is a solution
The Speedtwister+ ALU, characterized by its extra-long design, four cutting edges, unequal helix pitch and internal cooling, is the ideal trochoidal high-performance milling cutter for aluminium and non-ferrous metals. The milling cutter covers the entire range of applications, from softer wrought and cast alloys to high-strength, difficult-to-machine aluminum or non-ferrous alloys.
Key benefits and technical details:
- Increased tool life: The specially developed combination of optimized cutting edge geometry, polished functional surfaces and coordinated coating ensures efficient chip removal, reduced wear and a significantly extended tool life. This ensures maximum cost-effectiveness and high process reliability.
- Heat management: Thanks to the high surface quality and central internal cooling, heat is effectively dissipated. This prevents built-up edges and guarantees stable machining processes even at high cutting speeds.
- Performance: The innovative geometry results in lower radial cutting forces and allows higher axial infeeds, which enables high cutting performance. The milling cutter is also characterized by excellent running smoothness and optimum chip removal.
- Application strategies: The tools support a wide variety of milling strategies in aluminum and non-ferrous metals and can be used in different machining situations without great effort. They are suitable for both static and dynamic machining, especially for trochoidal milling (HPC).
