M5B90
Super finishing face milling cutter for aluminum
Finishing face milling concept developed for automotive aluminum components, such as cylinder heads, blocks, housings, covers, and all components with a wide material engagement. Designed with a unique axial and radial positioning of the inserts, M5B90 resembles more a rotary broach than a milling tool. It comprises a single, custom-made tooth containing several standard inserts.
The unique design allows chips to be cut efficiently since the minimum stock removal from each insert results in burr-free milling, which is often unavoidable with conventional milling cutters. M5B90 prevents uneven tool wear and provides superior tool life, even at high feed rates.
