R0.5 Corner Radius End Mill Cutters HRC45/55/60/65 With TiAlN Coating OEM/ODM

Product Description:

When machining materials, the recommended corner radii can vary widely. Here are some general recommendations for corner radii based on common materials:

For machining aluminum, which is a relatively soft material, larger corner radii can be used without sacrificing cutting performance. Corner radii in the range of 0.030" to 0.060" (0.75mm to 1.5mm) are commonly employed.

When machining steel, which is a harder material, smaller corner radii are typically recommended. Corner radii ranging from 0.010" to 0.040" (0.25mm to 1mm) are commonly used. Smaller radii help maintain cutting edge strength and minimize tool wear.

Stainless steel is a challenging material to machine due to its hardness and high strength. For stainless steel, corner radii in the range of 0.010" to 0.030" (0.25mm to 0.75mm) are commonly employed. Smaller radii help reduce cutting forces and improve tool life.

Cast iron is a relatively brittle material. For machining cast iron, larger corner radii can be used to help prevent chipping or fracturing of the material. Corner radii in the range of 0.060" to 0.125" (1.5mm to 3mm) are often recommended.

Plastics are generally softer materials and can accommodate larger corner radii. The specific type of plastic will influence the recommended corner radius, but generally, radii in the range of 0.030" to 0.125" (0.75mm to 3mm) are commonly used.

It's important to note that these recommendations are general guidelines, and the optimal corner radius for a specific material may vary depending on factors such as the specific machining operation, desired surface finish, and machine capabilities. Always consider the specific requirements of your machining application and consult with tooling manufacturers or suppliers for more precise recommendations based on your specific needs.

Applications:

Carbide corner radius end mills are highly versatile and can be used in many different applications, including contour milling, slot milling, pocket milling, polymer mold and die making, and general machining. They are especially suitable for machining operations that require precise radii and smooth edges.

In contour milling, carbide corner radius end mills are often used to create smooth, rounded edges on workpieces, such as those required for aesthetic or functional purposes. They make efficient slot milling possible, as they are capable of producing accurate radii and leaving a curved bottom surface to reduce stress concentrations and promote part strength. When it comes to pocket milling, these end mills can remove material from the pocket while maintaining rounded corners which improve the appearance of the part. Further, they are widely used in the mold and die industry to create complex shapes and contours, as well as in aerospace applications for machining components with demanding dimensional tolerances.

Carbide corner radius end mills are also capable of detailed chamfering, deburring, and edge rounding operations, which improve the overall quality of machined parts. Thus, they can be effectively used in a wide range of industries and machining operations.
