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

Index: X99.06.022.070.06PR

The NEXCUT X99 compression milling cutter from ITA TOOLS is the official winner of the Gold Medal MTP at the 2026 International Fair of Machines, Tools and Components for the Wood and Furniture Industry DREMA. This industrial spiral milling cutter made from a special grade of sintered carbide is designed for nesting, part of the X99 NEXCUT series with compression geometry (positive-negative) featuring an innovative PLATINIUM protective coating. The tool is designed for maximum efficiency during cutting, nesting technology, as well as edge lipping and alignment on CNC machining centres. The advanced blade arrangement Z#liczba_ostrzy_z with finishing geometry combined with counter-rotating screw lines guarantees an ideally smooth surface and clean edges without chipping on both the upper and lower surfaces of the workpiece. The ground shank with an accuracy class of H6 effectively eliminates radial runout, protecting the drive system and preventing vibration.

Design Advantages and Technical Properties:

• Gold Medal Winner DREMA 2026: Officially recognised with the prestigious MTP award for innovation, outstanding machining quality and advanced cutting technology in the furniture industry.
• Advanced Z2+6 (NEXCUT) design: The special configuration of 2+6 spiral blades ensures excellent working culture, perfect edge finishing and very high feed rates while maintaining perfect cutting quality.
• Compression geometry (Positive-Negative): The counter-rotating twist of the blades simultaneously pushes the chip down from the upper edge and up from the lower edge, pressing the laminate against the board core and eliminating the risk of tearing.
• Special grade carbide for nesting: The use of selected monolith carbide with increased stiffness and impact resistance protects the blades from micro-chipping during continuous board processing.
• Advanced two-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 hard coating with tribological properties allows for a very low friction coefficient (0.02), drastically reduces material adhesion to the tool and significantly extends blade life.
• Finishing cutting geometry: Precisely ground edges guarantee excellent surface quality of edges without the need for additional processing.
• Low roughness of the shank (Ra ≤ 0.3 µm): The ground shank surface prevents slipping in the tool holder and protects the spindle taper from wear.
• Dynamic balancing in class G2.5: Balancing in accordance with ISO standards guarantees stability and quiet operation at maximum rotational speeds.

Intended Use and Scope:

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

It works perfectly with materials such as: solid soft and hard wood, raw and laminated MDF board, raw and laminated particle board, raw and laminated plywood, and HPL boards.
