Milling Solution, KENFEED 2X

Kennametal offers the new KenFeedâ„¢ 2X Milling Solution, the latest development in high-feed for light to heavy end milling operations. Developed from the original KenFeedâ„¢ platform, which has seen industry success for over six years, this new generation promises larger depths of cut using larger inserts. While the previous generation of KenFeed tooling required three different insert sizes, the new KenFeed 2X requires only one. These new inserts are engineered to provide superior material removal rates and productivity at high feeds for roughing operations. Each double-sided trigon insert offers six cutting edges for better cost per edge position with full usage. The thick design of the inserts provides outstanding strength and reliability making them capable of withstanding high-feed operations. Additionally, it is the ideal solution for deep cavities or milling operations from 3 x D. Two insert topographies can be easily selected to cover light, general purpose, and heavy machining. The HD insert geometry is the first choice for steels, high-strength steels, and cast iron, while the GD geometry provides lower cutting forces for softer materials. With the latest grades and geometries, the KenFeed 2X inserts provide 2 times the cutting power with multiple edges. KenFeed 2X tool bodies are available in screw-on, end mill, and shell mill options with internal through coolant. The platform design makes KenFeed 2X ideal for pocketing, ramping, and helical interpolations with Z-plunge capabilities. Kennametal plans to expand this new line to include additional metric and inch diameters.
