Three-flute spiral end mill VHM for aluminium and plastics with upward chip removal – high performance rough machining

Index: SR33.10.032.080.10R

Industrial three-flute spiral end mill made of solid carbide with a roughing geometry and upward chip removal. Designed for demanding cutting operations and efficient removal of large material allowances in aluminium, plastics, and composites. The specially profiled cutting edge breaks the chips into smaller pieces, which reduces cutting resistance, prevents clogging of channels, and decreases spindle load. The arrangement of three cutting edges combined with a right-hand screw thread ensures higher tool rigidity and effectively removes chips from the underside of the material. The ground shank in accuracy class H6 eliminates radial runout, protecting the machine's drive system.

Construction advantages and technical properties:

• Roughing geometry with a chip breaker: The profiled tooth design breaks the chip into small pieces, reducing cutting resistance and preventing the workpiece from jamming.
• Three-flute Z3 design: Three cutting edges allow for an increase in feed speed while maintaining smooth operation and high rigidity of the body.
• Positive geometry: The right-hand spiral lifts the chips upwards, protecting the lower edge of the work material from damage.
• Polished chip grooves: The mirror surface of the spiral reduces friction and prevents the workpiece from sticking to the tool body.
• Solid carbide (VHM): The rigid and wear-resistant structure of the solid material guarantees durability when working with large allowances.
• 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 compliant with ISO standards ensures vibration-free operation at very high speeds.

Purpose and application range:

The tool is designed for rough cutting, grooving, and jointing operations in aluminium, plastics, and composite materials on CNC machining centres.

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