Cutters & Inserts for Milling of SS

Pramet has launched a completely new range of Cutters and Inserts for economical face milling of stainless steel. The versatile range includes OEHT octagonal inserts for cutting depths 4-10 mm, alongside REHT (round) and XEHT (wiper) inserts. By utilising eight cutting edges – the highest number available for positive inserts – the new range provides an economical offer for customers, while the wiper insert option boosts feed rate capabilities and surface finish quality. Pramet’s new double positive 45° milling cutter, S45OE, is available in diameters up to 200 mm and supports internal coolant delivery. Its versatile design allows the same cutter body to be used with both the octagonal inserts for face milling and the round inserts for face and copy milling applications. Suitable for use even on machines with limited power, the combination of new inserts and cutter offer high metal removal rates with low cutting force. The risk of chatter is also reduced – an important consideration when machining valuable components. For use with the OEHT inserts, three new positive geometries – MF, MM and M – have been introduced for various cutting conditions. The new geometries offer reduced cutting forces and increased durability for machining with or without coolant. Pramet is a product brand of Dormer Pramet.
