Dapra’s HFDEH high-feed inserts are designed to fit toroid cutter bodies. As part of the Rhino-Carb line, the inserts are CNC-pressed, rather than ground, for thickness. This increases strength and enhances heat-absorption capabilities, the company says.
The inserts are designed for increased tool life in aggressive applications, including high metal removal rates at lighter cutting depths. Suited for stainless steels, high-temperature alloys and gummy materials, the inserts feature a strong, high-positive cutting edge that enables heavier chip loads and greater shock absorption. A positive top rake reduces cutting forces and torque. The inserts are available in DMK30, DMK25 and DMP25 toroid substrates.
Designed for diameters of 1.25" and larger, the inserts are suited for such demanding applications as mold cavity and core roughing; roughing of complex part contours; pocketing; helical interpolation; and the roughing portion of the face milling process.
To cut out laborious manual processes like hand-grinding, this briquette manufacturer revamped its machining and cutting tool arsenal for faster production.
Threading tools with the flexibility to thread a broad variety of holes provide the agility many shops need to stay competitive. They may be the only solution for many difficult materials.
