Single-edge spiral milling cutter VHM for PLEXI with upward chip removal

Index: ST01.03.006.060.06RE

Industrial single-edge spiral milling cutter made from solid carbide (VHM) with positive geometry (upward chip removal). Designed for precise cutting, edging and trimming in Plexiglas, plastics and composites on CNC machines and overhead milling machines. The finishing geometry with a single blade (Z1) combined with a polished chip groove effectively prevents material sticking and melting. The right-hand helical flute efficiently evacuates chips upwards, protecting the cutting zone from overheating and ensuring a smooth edge without the need for additional polishing. The ground shank in accuracy class H6 eliminates radial runout, protecting the machine's drive system.

Design advantages and technical properties:

• Single-edge design Z1 (positive): The single cutting edge allows rapid removal of large amounts of material, minimising friction and risk of overheating the material.
• Polished chip groove: The mirror finish of the spiral prevents sticking and secondary welding of chips to the tool body.
• Finishing blade geometry: The precisely sharpened edge ensures cleanliness and smoothness of the edge after cutting.
• Solid carbide (VHM): The rigid VHM construction reduces vibrations and maintains dimensional accuracy.
• 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 according to ISO standards ensures vibration-free operation at very high rotational speeds.

Application and usage range:

The tool is intended for cutting, edging, and trimming in plastics on CNC machining centres.

Used for machining materials such as: PLEXI (acrylic), plastics, ALUCOBOND® sheets, ALUCOBOND® A2, and composites like CORIAN® and HPL.
