Single-flute VHM spiral end mill for aluminium with upward chip removal – clean bottom edge and efficient chip removal

Index: SP01.32.127.635.32R

Industrial single-flute spiral end mill made from solid carbide (VHM) with positive geometry (upward chip removal). Designed for efficient and precise cutting, jointing, and edge trimming in aluminium, composite materials, and plastics on CNC machining centres and overhead milling machines. The finishing geometry with a single cutting edge (Z1) combined with a polished chip flute effectively prevents material from sticking and accumulating on the cutting edge. The right-hand spiral quickly removes chips upwards, protecting the cutting zone from overheating and guaranteeing a clean, finished edge surface. The ground shank in H6 accuracy class eliminates radial run-out, protecting the machine's drive system and ensuring a high level of machining stability.

Construction advantages and technical properties:

• Single-flute Z1 (positive) design: The single cutting edge provides a large chip space, enabling immediate chip evacuation and reducing cutting resistance.
• Polished chip flute: The mirror-finished spiral surface prevents stickiness and welding of aluminium chips to the body of the mill.
• Finishing blade geometry: The precisely ground edge allows for a clean surface finish without the need for additional finishing operations.
• Solid carbide (VHM): The rigid VHM construction dampens vibrations and ensures a long tool life when working with non-ferrous metals.
• Low shank roughness (Ra ≤ 0.3 µm): The ground surface of the shank 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 ensures vibration-free operation at very high rotational speeds.

Purpose and range of application:

The tool is intended for cutting operations as well as jointing and edge trimming in aluminium and composites on CNC machining centres.

Used for machining materials such as: aluminium, ALUCOBOND® panels, ALUCOBOND® A2, plastics, and composites like CORIAN® and HPL.
