VHM Compression Spiral Cutter for Nesting X99 NEXCUT with PLATINIUM Coating – Awarded Precision and Outstanding Durability

Index: X99.10.035.080.10PR

The compression cutter for nesting NEXCUT X99 by ITA TOOLS is the official winner of the Gold Medal MTP at the International Trade Fair for Machines, Tools and Components for the Wood and Furniture Industry DREMA 2026. The industrial spiral cutter made of a special grade of sintered carbide designed for nesting from the X99 NEXCUT series in compression geometry (positive-negative) features an innovative protective PLATINIUM coating. The tool is designed for maximum efficiency during slicing, cutting in nesting technology, as well as edge banding and aligning on CNC machining centres. An advanced blade arrangement Z#liczba_ostrzy_z with finishing geometry combined with opposing helical lines guarantees a perfectly smooth surface and clean edges without chipping on both the upper and lower surfaces of the processed board. The ground shank in accuracy class H6 effectively eliminates radial runout, protecting the drive system and preventing vibrations.

Construction Advantages and Technical Properties:

• Winner of the Gold Medal DREMA 2026: Officially distinguished with the prestigious MTP award for innovation, exceptional machining quality, and advanced cutting technology in the furniture industry.
• Advanced Z2+6 (NEXCUT) design: The special arrangement of 2+6 spiral blades ensures exceptional work culture, ideal edge finishing, and very high feed rates while maintaining perfect cutting quality.
• Compression geometry (Positive-Negative): The opposing twist of the blades simultaneously pushes chips down from the upper edge and up from the lower edge, pressing the laminate against the core of the board and eliminating the risk of tear-outs.
• Special grade carbide for nesting: The use of selected monolithic carbide with increased stiffness and impact strength protects the blades from micro-fractures during continuous panel machining.
• Advanced dual-layer PLATINIUM coating (.PR): An innovative PVD coating with an iridescent colour (gold-purple-blue), thickness of 1-4 µm and microhardness of 3000 HV (HV 0.05). The combination of a hard layer with tribological properties achieves a very low coefficient of friction (0.02), drastically reduces material adhesion to the tool, and significantly extends the blade life.
• Finishing cutting geometry: Precisely ground edges guarantee excellent edge surface quality without the need for additional machining.
• Low grip roughness (Ra ≤ 0.3 µm): The ground surface of the shank prevents slipping in the tool holder and protects the spindle cone from wear.
• Dynamic balancing in class G2.5: Balancing in accordance with ISO standards ensures stability and quiet operation at maximum rotational speeds.

Intended Purpose and Scope of Use:

The tool is intended for efficient cutting operations, nesting technology machining, as well as edge banding and alignment on CNC machining centres.

It works excellently for processing materials such as: solid soft and hard wood, raw and laminated MDF boards, raw and laminated particle boards, raw and laminated plywood, and HPL boards.
