Cutters for stringent aerospace applications

ADDITIONS to the Jabro?-Solid2 line of solid carbide end mills from Seco will allow an even greater range of applications. The latest expansion to this highly versatile series of cutters includes new inch sizes, geometries and flute versions.

Among these new solid carbide end mills is the JS522 long-flute finishing tool in standard inch sizes, which will mean that manufacturers can now reduce their cycle times and achieve more effective machining through single-pass finishing as well as easily maintain high-quality standards in a wide range of workpiece materials.

The JS522 long-flute finishing tool meets the aerospace industry’s stringent criteria for perpendicularity, fine surface finish, high metal removal rates and more effective machining

Four new geometries for cutters, known as the JS400 series, allow users to optimise chip formation and achieve higher cutting data in general machining and aerospace applications involving aluminium alloys. To further adapt the series for aerospace part production, the JS453 now features an expanded programme of radii (1,0; 2,0; 2,5; 3,0; 4,0 and 6,0 mm) and overhang lengths to serve a broader application range.

Seco has also extended the JCO710 range of solid HSS-E end mills to now include zn-4 flute versions in the complete diameter range that increase process security in full slotting operations, especially in less-than-ideal cutting conditions. Furthermore, new lengths have been added in the zn-6 flute designs providing users an efficient and effective solution for side milling high shoulders of up to 4xD in a single pass.
