Carmexʼs expanded CMT line of vertical milling inserts delivers longer tool life, higher material removal, good surface finish, reduced cycle times, and lower cutting forces in steel materials as hard as 62 HRc.
Carmexʼs expanded CMT line of vertical milling inserts delivers longer tool life, higher material removal, good surface finish, reduced cycle times, and lower cutting forces in steel materials as hard as 62 HRc. The tools feature a ground profile incorporating four to eight cutting edges, a spiral flute design, and MT8 submicron carbide grade construction with PVD triple coating for high heat resistance and smooth operation in all general-purpose applications, according to the company. The cutters can be used with existing CMT C18-type toolholders and are available in a range of profiles including 60- and 55-degree partial profile for internal and external threading, and ISO and UN full profile for internal threading. The company also offers multiple sizes for chamfering, grooving and boring as well as regular and full radius groove milling.
