1、 Characteristics
Strong cutting ability: The spiral blade can remove more material, thereby improving milling efficiency.
High cutting quality: The spiral blade can reduce burrs and ripples, making the machined surface smoother and improving surface quality.
Long service life: The spiral structure of the cutting tool can disperse the cutting force and reduce tool wear, so the service life of the spiral milling cutter is relatively long.
High speed: The cutting trajectory of the spiral milling cutter is spiral shaped, which increases the cutting speed and significantly improves work efficiency.
Low vibration: The cutting force of the spiral milling cutter is evenly distributed, reducing the vibration during cutting and ensuring machining accuracy.
Good stability: The cutting thickness and cutting angle of the spiral milling cutter vary little, ensuring the stability of cutting quality.
Good wear resistance: Spiral milling cutters are usually made of wear-resistant materials such as hard alloys, thus possessing strong wear resistance.
2、 Material and Structure
Spiral milling cutters can be made of various materials such as tungsten steel, hard alloy, high-speed steel, stainless steel, etc. Structurally, spiral milling cutters can be divided into various types such as integral, clamp, and welded.
3、 Application Fields
Spiral milling cutters are widely used in multiple fields due to their efficient and high-quality cutting performance
Aerospace: Used for processing high-precision and high demand materials such as aluminum alloys and titanium alloys.
Automobile manufacturing: plays an important role in the processing technology of body, chassis, engine and other components.
Mold processing: suitable for processing various types of molds such as metal molds, plastic molds, fiberglass molds, etc.
4、 Purchase suggestions
When choosing a spiral milling cutter, the following points should be noted:
Tool material: Select the appropriate tool material based on the characteristics of the processing material and processing requirements.
Tool geometry: Select the appropriate tool geometry based on the machining contour and cutting parameters.
Tool processing capability: Ensure that the cutting ability and service life of the selected spiral milling cutter can meet the processing requirements.
5、 Price
The price of spiral milling cutters varies depending on factors such as brand, material, and specifications. Generally speaking, spiral milling cutters made of high-performance materials such as hard alloys are more expensive, while spiral milling cutters made of ordinary high-speed steel or stainless steel are relatively cheaper. Meanwhile, there are also certain differences in the prices of spiral milling cutters from different brands.
In summary, spiral milling cutters play an important role in metal cutting due to their unique spiral edge and excellent cutting performance. When making a purchase, it is necessary to consider the actual processing needs and budget comprehensively.
