Milling Cutters, Multipurpose

Kennametal has launched a new line of multipurpose Milling Cutters, the KSRM^TM, specifically engineered for titanium and stainless steel applications. Their design enables pocketing, profiling, ramping, and plunging with up to 1 mm fz. KSRM milling cutters deliver consistent performance and excellent metal removal rates with the lowest cutting forces for roughing applications. All KSRM inserts offer up to eight indexable positions for fast and accurate insert changes. These inserts were designed with a high positive rake angle and stronger cutting edges for lower cutting forces when machining titanium. They are available in 12 mm and 16 mm diameters for KSRM face mills and screw-on, Weldon^®, and cylindrical KSRM end mills. These diameters are offered in SGE and ELE insert styles, which are the first choice for titanium applications. SGE inserts are designed for medium and heavy milling tasks, whereas ELE inserts should be used at low cutting forces and to avoid edge build-up. A 20 mm diameter insert is also available for compatible KSRM face mill models. These inserts are offered in three styles. ELF inserts are designed for low cutting forces to avoid edge build-up. SGF and SHF inserts are for general purpose and heavy-duty roughing applications, respectively.
