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

Index: SP01.04.008.060.06HE

Industrial single-flute spiral end mill made from solid carbide (VHM) with positive geometry (upward chip ejection). Designed for efficient and precise cutting, as well as edge jointing and levelling in aluminium, composite materials, and plastics on CNC machining centres and overhead spindle mills. The finishing geometry with a single cutting edge (Z1) combined with a polished chip groove effectively prevents material build-up on the cutting edge. The right-hand spiral quickly removes the chips upwards, protecting the cutting area from overheating and ensuring a clean, finished edge surface. The ground shank with H6 accuracy eliminates radial runout, protecting the machine's drive system and guaranteeing a high level of machining stability.

Design 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 groove: The mirror finish of the spiral surface prevents chips from aluminium sticking and welding to the body of the mill.
• Finishing geometry of the blade: Precisely sharpened edge allows for achieving a clean surface 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 surface 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 according to ISO standards guarantees vibration-free operation at very high rotational speeds.

Application and scope of use:

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

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