Two-flute spiral end mill VHM for aluminium and plastics with upward chip evacuation – clean bottom edge

Index: SQ01.08.035.080.08R

Industrial two-flute spiral end mill made from solid carbide (VHM) with positive geometry (upward chip evacuation). The arrangement of two cutting edges (Z2) ensures higher tool rigidity, reduced vibrations, and enables the use of higher feed rates while maintaining stability. The right-hand thread effectively lifts the chips upwards, guaranteeing cleanliness and avoiding tearing on the bottom edge of the workpiece. Designed for precise cutting, welding, and edge trimming in aluminium, plastics, and composite materials on CNC machining centres and overhead milling machines. The finishing geometry combined with polished flutes prevents chip build-up on the tool body. The ground shank in accuracy class H6 eliminates radial runout, protecting the machine spindle.

Design advantages and technical properties:

• Two-flute Z2 (positive) design: Two cutting edges increase the rigidity of the mill and allow for increased feed rates while ensuring very smooth guiding in the material.
• Positive geometry (upward chip evacuation): Right-hand spiral directs chips upwards, preventing fraying and tearing on the underside of the workpiece.
• Polished chip flutes: The mirror-like surface of the spiral reduces friction, effectively preventing adhesion and welding of chips to the tool body.
• Finishing edge geometry: Precisely ground cutting edges ensure a smooth finish on the machined surfaces.
• Solid carbide (VHM): The rigid and wear-resistant structure of the solid carbide reduces vibrations and allows for dimensional precision.
• 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 designed for cutting operations as well as welding and edge trimming 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.
