hrc56°4flute thick shank extended milling cutter specification sheet：

The Thick Shank Extended Edge Milling Cutter is a specialized milling tool designed for heavy-duty applications. Its thicker shank and extended cutting edge make it excellent for deep groove machining or when extensive material removal is required. The thick shank provides greater rigidity and torque transfer capabilities, while the extended blade allows for the processing of slots or more material in one setup.

Key Considerations for Selecting a Thick Shank Extended Edge Milling Cutter:

1. Machining Materials:
   • Different material properties, such as hardness, toughness, and abrasiveness, affect the selection of a milling cutter.
   • Harder materials may require the use of carbide material milling cutters, while softer materials may be machined with high-speed steel (HSS) milling cutters.
2. Cutting Speed and Feed Rates:
   • These parameters are key considerations when selecting a milling cutter. Different cutting tools are designed to operate optimally at different speeds and feeds.
3. Tool Coating:
   • Coating can increase the hardness of the tool, reduce friction, improve resistance to wear and thermal damage, thereby improving cutting efficiency.
4. Tool Diameter and Blade Length:
   • The diameter and blade length of a thick shank milling cutter should be selected based on the size of the feature to be machined and the capabilities of the machine tool.
   • Large diameter tools can remove more material quickly but require more machine power and rigidity.
5. Types of Milling Cutters:
   • Flat nose end mills, ball nose end mills, and radius end mills have different uses in machining, each tailored to specific milling needs.
6. Number of Teeth on the Milling Cutter:
   • Coarse-tooth milling cutters are mostly used for roughing because they have larger flutes, while fine-tooth milling cutters are suitable for finishing because they can provide better surface finish.
7. Left-Hand and Right-Hand Milling Cutters:
   • Left-hand milling cutters are usually used for high-precision processing, such as mobile phone button processing, membrane switch panels, etc.
   • Right-hand milling cutters are suitable for most conventional processing.
8. Milling Cutter Maintenance:
   • Regular maintenance can extend the life of your cutting tool.
   • Tools should be inspected frequently for signs of wear, such as chips, dull edges, or unusual material build-up, and sharpened and replaced as needed.

By considering these factors, you can select the most appropriate Thick Shank Extended Edge Milling Cutter for your specific machining requirements, ensuring optimal performance and tool longevity.
