Features for High-Volume Operations

Designed especially for production environments, the POW•R•FEED M924 end mill removed 470% to 907% more metal per tool than a comparable competitor's tool in 17-4 PH stainless steel and 4140 steel, respectively, in tests performed at IMCO's in-house lab, according to the company.

"The POW•R•FEED M924 is a real powerhouse for productivity," said Perry Osburn, President of IMCO. "It outperformed even the original POW•R•FEED M904 in every metal we tested."

IMCO Sales Manager Tim Elfreich attributes the boost in performance to its reinforced, optimized cutting edges and AlCrNX engineered coating for longer tool life. "It has a 38° helix, creating a higher than usual shear plane," he said. "The result is a much higher feed rate compared with other general-purpose cutting tools. Optimized rake and relief angles and free cutting action also make higher feed rates achievable. Reinforced cutting edges resist chipping and excessive wear, even in the most unforgiving metals.

"Our AlCrNX engineered coating plays a major role in maintaining that cutting edge strength for significantly longer tool life. The longer it deflects the intense heat generated in the cutting zone, the longer that tool will run."
