Face Milling Tool for Automotive Industry
May 1, 2016
With the eight-edge CoroMill 425, Sandvik Coromant has introduced a finishing tool for the face milling of cast materials designed for the automotive industry.
Sandvik Coromant has introduced CoroMill 425, a finishing tool for the face milling of cast materials. With its eight edges it is designed for face milling components such as engine and cylinder blocks, axle housings, brake carriers and crankcases made of GCI, NCI and CGI materials. Due to its patented setting system, the tool features precise insert positioning that helps make set-up simple.
On the CoroMill 425, the same inserts can be used as working or as wiper inserts. The wiper inserts are mounted in cassettes on the face of the tool. The insert version with a 25° entry angle and optimized chamfer is designed to reduce breakouts and burr formation on the workpiece. "A choice of wear-resistant GC1010 PVD insert grade for dry milling and K20W grade for wet milling enables especially long tool life in CGI materials," said a company spokesperson.
