Cutting tool specialist Sandvik Coromant has expanded its CoroMill MS20 shoulder milling concept to include grade GC1230 inserts that are specifically engineered for ISO P materials. This true 90° shoulder milling solution offers increased performance in steel machining, from roughing to finishing, with improved security, versatility, and productivity.
"CoroMill MS20 has already proven its value in ISO M and ISO S materials. With the addition of grade GC1230, it becomes a first-choice solution for ISO P applications, particularly in general engineering and automotive industries," said Sangram Dash, Global Product Manager for Indexable Milling Tools at Sandvik Coromant. "Its versatility makes it ideal for repeated shoulder milling, face milling, linear and helical ramping, full slotting, and plunging applications."
A spokesperson noted: "CoroMill MS20 combines high-quality cutter bodies with precision inserts to deliver excellent surface finishes and optimal wall quality in repeated shoulder milling. The robust cutter body provides tight tolerances on both axial and radial runout, enhancing component quality and reducing scrap rates. The inserts, manufactured using advanced pressing technology, offer greater dimensional accuracy, further enhancing insert tool life and component quality."
Steel milling grade GC1230 inserts feature advanced coating and substrate technologies engineered to provide increased wear resistance and edge line security. They are designed for predictable tool life and consistent performance, even in demanding conditions.
The CoroMill MS20 assortment includes cutter bodies ranging from 15.8 mm to 84 mm (with inch equivalents), along with a new cylindrical shank option with Sandvik Coromant's Silent Tools integrated damper, enhancing stability and performance in demanding operations. The insert range features geometries optimized for steel, stainless steel and heat-resistant super alloys.
