Tungsten Carbide Round Nose Mill

Introduction

Tungsten carbide round nose mill refers to its curved tip portion is greater than 1/4 of a circle, which has high wear resistance and is suitable for metal groove milling.

Types

By the shapes: Flat cutter, ball-end cutter and round nose cutter;
By the structure: Solid-type, solid-welded tooth, inlayed tooth and indexable type;
By the tooth profile: Tine and shovel tooth;
By the applications: Flat, ball-end, round nose, forming, chamfering, T-type, tooth-shaped, roughing.

Characteristic

Round nose mill, generally inlayed-structure, each replacement blade will cause subtle changes in the onset of tool size. There is no static cutting edge, wear of the blades is small, and the space of knife can be increased. But the tool tip has blind spot and it will appear bumping in some small hollow area. In addition, since automatic clearance angle function of the existing processing software are based on the ball to scout knife, even if you set the reference tool is a round nose knife, but in practice the calculation process always with reference to the diameter of the ball cutter, if used directly follow automatic clearance angle machining, then it will be insufficient in some regions. Therefore, it should be choose appropriate tool according to the specific shape of workpiece.
