Milling cutter is a rotary cutter with one or more teeth for CNC Milling Parts. When working, each cutter tooth cuts off the allowance of the workpiece intermittently. The milling cutter is mainly used for machining planes, steps, Grooves, forming surfaces and cutting off workpieces, etc. So do you want to have a deeper understanding of milling cutters? Next, we will introduce several common types of milling cutters
1. Cylindrical milling cutter, used for machining plane on horizontal milling machine. The cutter teeth are distributed on the circumference of the milling cutter, and are divided into two types: straight teeth and helical teeth according to the tooth shape, and coarse teeth and fine teeth according to the number of teeth. The helical-tooth coarse-tooth milling cutter has few teeth, high tooth strength, and large chip space, which is suitable for rough machining; fine-toothed milling cutter is suitable for finishing;
2. Face milling cutters are used for machining planes on vertical milling machines, face milling machines or gantry milling machines. There are cutter teeth on the end face and circumference, as well as coarse teeth and fine teeth. 3 types of indexing type;
3. End mills are used for machining grooves and stepped surfaces, etc. The cutter teeth are on the circumference and end face. When CNC Milling Parts is working, it cannot be fed in the axial direction. When there are end teeth passing through the center on the end mill, it can be Axial feed;
4. The three-sided edge milling cutter is used to process various grooves and stepped surfaces, and there are cutter teeth on both sides and on the circumference;
5. Angle milling cutter, used for milling grooves at a certain angle, there are two types of single-angle and double-angle milling cutters;
6. The saw blade milling cutter is used for machining deep grooves and cutting workpieces. There are many cutter teeth on the circumference. In order to reduce the friction during milling, the two sides of the cutter teeth have a secondary declination angle of 15'~1°. , as well as keyway milling cutters, dovetail milling cutters, T-slot milling cutters and various forming milling cutters;
7. T-shaped milling cutter: used to mill T-shaped grooves.
What is "milling"? In fact, it still uses the rotary processing method, but this time it is the turn of the milling cutter to rotate. CNC Milling Parts is to fix the blank, and use a high-speed rotating milling cutter to run on the blank to cut out the required shapes and features. Conventional milling is used more for simple shapes/features such as contours and slots. CNC milling machines can process complex shapes and features. The milling and boring machining center can perform three-axis or multi-axis milling and boring processing for machining, molds, inspection tools, tire tools, thin-walled complex surfaces, artificial prostheses, blades, etc. When choosing the content of CNC Milling Parts, the advantages and key roles of CNC milling machines should be fully utilized.
