SDF-M Series Solid Tungsten Carbide High-Performance 4-Flute End Mill – ALCRONA Coating

Material and Hardness:

The milling cutter is manufactured from high-quality solid tungsten carbide material, ensuring exceptional hardness and wear resistance. This material maintains superior performance under high-intensity and high-speed cutting conditions, making it suitable for demanding machining environments. The high hardness and wear resistance ensure that the milling cutter retains excellent cutting performance over long periods of use, especially for processing hardened steels within the HRC45-55 range.

Design Features:

• Four-Flute Design: Provides efficient chip evacuation and an excellent surface finish, suitable for high-efficiency machining of various materials. The four-flute structure not only increases metal removal rates but also ensures a smoother cutting process, reducing vibration and noise.
• Advanced Grinding Process and Edge Treatment Technology: Utilizes advanced five-axis CNC grinding to ensure each cutting edge achieves micron-level precision, guaranteeing consistent performance and strict tolerance requirements. Special edge treatment technology enhances edge toughness and durability, effectively extending tool life.
• Negative Rake Angle Design: Increases cutting edge strength and enhances cutting stability, particularly suitable for difficult-to-machine materials like hardened steels. The negative rake angle design can withstand higher cutting forces, reducing tool wear and ensuring long-term stable cutting performance.
• ALCRONA Coating: Surface-coated with ALCRONA coating, which offers superior wear and heat resistance, significantly improving cutting performance and tool life. The ALCRONA coating also effectively reduces cutting temperatures, minimizing thermal deformation of both the tool and workpiece, enhancing machining quality and tool longevity.

Functionality and Performance:

• High Efficiency: The optimized four-flute design and special geometry allow the milling cutter to perform multiple cutting operations in a single pass, significantly improving cutting efficiency. This design reduces machining time and enhances machining quality.
• Long Life: High-quality tungsten carbide material combined with advanced grinding processes, edge treatment technology, and ALCRONA coating significantly extends tool life. This reduces replacement frequency, lowers production costs, and increases productivity.
• High Precision: Strict manufacturing processes ensure geometric precision and consistency, meeting high-precision machining requirements. Whether for roughing or finishing, it provides consistent and reliable results.
• Smooth Cutting: Optimized geometry and low-friction edge treatment ensure smooth and consistent cutting, reducing vibration and deformation, and improving machining accuracy and surface quality.
