Spiral router bit for aluminum & plastics VHM Z2 D6 I12 L60 S6 RH Finishing positive

Double-edged spiral cutter VHM for aluminium and plastics with upward chip removal – clean lower edge

Index: SQ01.06.012.060.06R

Industrial double-edged spiral cutter made from solid carbide (VHM) with positive geometry (upward chip removal). The arrangement of two cutting edges (Z2) provides higher tool rigidity, reduces vibrations, and allows for higher feed rates while maintaining stability. The right-handed spiral effectively lifts the chips upward, ensuring cleanliness and no tearing on the lower edge of the workpiece. Designed for precise cutting as well as edge welding and leveling in aluminium, plastics, and composite materials on CNC machining centres and routing machines. The finishing geometry combined with polished flute grooves prevents the body from sticking to the chips. The ground shank in accuracy class H6 eliminates radial runout, protecting the machine spindle.

Design advantages and technical properties:

• Double-edged Z2 design (positive): Two cutting edges increase the cutter's rigidity and allow for increased feed speed with very smooth guidance through the material.
• Positive geometry (upward chip removal): The right-handed spiral directs chips upwards, preventing tearing and fraying on the underside of the machined plate.
• Polished flute grooves: The mirror-like surface of the spiral reduces friction, effectively preventing chip weld and sticking to the body.
• Finishing edge geometry: Precisely sharpened cutting edges ensure a smooth finish on the machined surfaces.
• Solid carbide (VHM): The rigid and wear-resistant structure of the solid reduces vibrations and allows for dimensional precision to be maintained.
• Low shank roughness (Ra ≤ 0.3 µm): The ground surface of the shank prevents slipping in the 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 speeds.

Intended use and application range:

The tool is intended for cutting operations as well as welding and leveling edges in aluminium, plastics, and composites on CNC machining centres.

Used in the machining of materials such as: aluminium, plastics, and composites like CORIAN® and HPL.
