The new Walter MD 133 Supreme milling cutters for ISO P (top) and ISO M (bottom).
The new MD133 Supreme milling cutter from Walter, designed specifically for dynamic milling, is engineered to provide increased process reliability, particularly during unmanned operation. It offers a heightened productivity due to a higher metal removal rate and a reduction in machining time. The first in Walter's projected line of dynamic milling cutters, the MD133 Supreme has diameters of 0.25 to 0.75" (6 to 20 mm) and cutting lengths to 5 x Dc. They are designed for operating parameters typical of dynamic milling, such as a small width of engagement, and a high depth of cut facilitated by a large cutting length.
A chip breaker creates short chips even when working with large cutting depths. This new milling cutter is available in two different grades: WJ30RD for steel (secondary application: cast iron) and WJ30RA for stainless steels (secondary application: ISO S, N). In addition to other benefits, the MD133 Supreme is a solution for applications with difficult-to-cut materials or unstable conditions (due to machine, workpiece or clamping).
The new milling cutter's dynamic milling strategy makes full use of the entire cutting length, giving it a very even wear pattern. In addition, heat is dissipated via the chip as much as possible, which leads to an improved tool edge life.
"Its special features make the MD133 Supreme interesting for high volume production environments, but also to users with smaller batch sizes. With its high level of flexibility, due to its match to the demands of dynamic milling, this milling cutter is suitable for the diverse range of tasks required from these operations," said a company spokesperson. Typical application areas for the new dynamic milling cutter line are general engineering, aerospace, energy and the mold and die industries.
