Face Mill

Kennametal’s next generation Face Mill tackles the toughest cast iron applications with ease. Mill 16 has a wedge-style clamping system, numbered pockets and inserts, and an open pocket design to increase chip flow in heavy roughing. The Mill 16 has a fine-pitch and medium pitch cutter body equipped with an innovative single-screw, wedge-style clamping system. This reduces time spent in the tool crib setting the tool and assures rigid, no-fail tool placement. Each pocket on the cutter body is numbered, as are each of the insert’s cutting edges, assuring maximum accuracy and ease of use when indexing to a new cutting edge. The heart of the Mill 16 is an octagonal, double-sided insert with 16 effective cutting edges, providing the lowest tooling cost per part possible. The face of each cutting edge contains an aggressive chip-breaker for positive cutting action and increased chip flow. The wedge clamp on either side of the insert’s top face is likewise chamfered to improve chip evacuation
