Multi-edge straight end mill VHM for composites – neutral chip removal and protection against delamination

Index: CSS.03.010.045.03R

Industrial multi-edge end mill made of solid carbide (VHM) with a simple blade geometry (neutral chip removal to the sides). Dedicated to precision machining of fibrous composites, it eliminates the risk of delamination of the structure and pulling out glass and carbon fibres. The arrangement of straight cutting edges does not generate vertical forces (either pushing or lifting), which guarantees a smooth finish and no chipping on both the upper and lower surfaces of the plate. The tool is effective for cutting, edging, and grooving on CNC machining centres and overhead spindle milling machines. The ground shank in class H6 secures the spindle against vibrations and prevents radial runout.

Design advantages and technical properties:

• Multi-edge geometry for composites: The multi-edge cutting arrangement precisely shears the material, preventing layer separation and fibre fraying.
• Simple geometry (side chip removal): The neutral cutting direction eliminates pressure and lifting of the workpiece, ensuring clean edges on both sides.
• Solid carbide (VHM): Abrasion-resistant material structure guarantees long tool life when machining abrasive materials.
• Low shank roughness (Ra ≤ 0.3 µm): The ground shank protects the spindle cone and prevents tool movement in the holder.
• Dynamic balancing G2.5: Balancing in accordance with ISO standards ensures stable and vibration-free operation at very high speeds.

Intended use and application range:

The tool is intended for cutting, edging, and grooving operations in composite materials on CNC machines.

Used in the processing of materials such as: fibre-reinforced plastics (CFRP), glass fibre (GFRP), CORIAN® composite sheets, and HPL laminates.
