Corner Radius End Mills merge the robustness of a flat end mill with the efficiency advantages of a curved edge. The introduction of a corner radius helps evenly disperse cutting forces, thereby lowering stress points and minimizing tool wear. These end mills are especially well-matched for the rapid machining of hardened materials, enhancing the lifespan of the tool and leading to smoother surface finishes.
By combining the attributes of both flat end mills and rounded cutters, corner radius end mills offer a balanced approach to machining applications. The rounded edge facilitates improved cutting performance, allowing for greater precision and reduced vibrations during operation. This design feature makes these end mills an ideal choice for applications requiring high-speed cutting and consistent results.
Increased Tool Strength
The rounded corners reduce stress concentration, minimizing the risk of breakage and improving tool rigidity.
Improved Surface Finish
The smooth radius at the corners creates cleaner cuts and better surface quality, especially in finishing operations.
Reduced Chipping and Wear
Corner radii help prevent edge chipping, especially when cutting harder or abrasive materials.
Longer Tool Life
With less wear and breakage, these tools last longer, reducing tool replacement frequency and machine downtime.
Higher Feed Rates
The added edge strength allows for more aggressive cutting parameters, increasing productivity.
Ideal for 3D Contouring and Mold Making
Perfect for applications that require strong edges and smooth transitions, such as mold cavities, dies, and complex profiles.
