Kyocera SGS Precision Tools has announced the expansion of its Z-Carb HPR high-performance five-flute end mill line with over 900 new tools.
The new tools feature new long, extended reach, and chip breaker options to combat a wider variety of high metal removal roughing operations. Utilized extensively in the aerospace, automotive, and general machining industries, SGS’s Z-Carb HPR five-flute roughing end mills are perfect for achieving high material removal rates (MRR) and superior finishes. The specialized five-flute design is engineered to drastically increase productivity 20-40% over conventional three and four-flute end mills. It features variable indexing geometry, which improves chatter suppression over symmetrical designs.
The Z-Carb HPR portfolio is equipped with various lengths, reach, square, and corner radius styles, along with new chip breaker options to address different machining situations. The end mills are coated with Ti-NAMITE-M and Ti-NAMITE-A, ensuring superior performance even in difficult-to-machine materials like Titanium and Stainless Steel.
Features and benefits:
- NEW long, reach, and chip breaker options available
- Over 1,700 items in portfolio
- Full complement of corner radii available
- Central coolant hole and chip breaker options available on select diameters
- Plain and Weldon Flat options available for diameters ½” / 12mm and above (other retention methods available upon request)
- 1/8″ and 6 mm cutting diameters and above
- Special tooling design attributes available upon request
