VHM Router for Bending Composite Plates such as Dibond and Alucobond – Precise V-Groove Cutting

Index: FVH.16.015.060.12RaE

Industrial shape router made from solid sintered carbide (VHM) designed for the precise cutting of grooves for bending in aluminium-plastic composite materials (e.g., DIBOND®, ALUCOBOND®). The special design of the cutting edges allows for clean cutting of a V-shaped groove while preserving the intact outer aluminium coating and core, which facilitates later manual bending of the plates at the desired angle. The tool performs well in grooving and preparing materials for bending on CNC machining centres and overhead routers. The precisely ground shank in H6 accuracy class eliminates radial runout, protecting the machine’s spindle from vibrations and wear.

Design Advantages and Technical Properties:

• Geometry for Bending Composites: The precisely ground cutting angle allows for exact V-groove cutting, preparing the plate for bending at angles of 90°, 108°, or 135°.
• Clean Cutting Edge: Optimised cutting edge prevents burr formation on aluminium and protects the outer paint coating from damage.
• Sintered Carbide Monolith (VHM): High hardness and wear resistance guarantee a long tool life when machining highly abrasive materials.
• Low Surface Roughness (Ra ≤ 0.3 µm): H6 class ground shank prevents tool slippage in the holder and protects the spindle cone.
• Dynamic Balancing G2.5: Compliance with ISO standards guarantees vibration-free operation at high rotational speeds.

Intended Use and Application Range:

The tool is intended for grooving, engraving, and creating profiled grooves for angular bending in composite plates on CNC machines.

Used in the machining of materials such as DIBOND®, ALUCOBOND®, HYLITE®, Gutbond composite plates and other aluminium-plastic façade and advertising laminates.
