TaeguTec has launched a new compact four corners double-sided insert for multiple applications – the 4NKT 6 millimeter insert for end mills, face mills and modular cutters.
\nThe 90 degree entering angle insert, despite the double sided design, is suitable for high ramp down angle applications. Its high positive geometry generates low cutting force while the cross edge insert geometry prevents unexpected insert failure.
\nThe new additions\u2019 increased insert thickness and high strength, combined with the cutter\u2019s wide bottom for improved clamping, enables excellent high stability and productive machining.
\nFurthermore, the 4NKT\u2019s smaller 6mm size compared to the 11mm and 16mm sizes increases the number of teeth on the cutter which is not only good for machining small components but also makes it a finer pitch tool that increases productivity.
\nThe new line of cutters is offered as end mills (D16-40mm), modular types (D16-40mm) and face mill types (D32- 63mm). All cutters include an internal coolant delivery system for efficient chip evacuation that prevents built-up-edges.
\nThe 4NKT 06 inserts are available in two geometries: \u201cM\u201d for general purpose machining applications and \u201cML\u201d for low power machining in unstable set-ups and long overhang applications.
\nTaeguTec\u2019s new line \u2013 the 4NKT 06 \u2013 is ideally suited for die and mold, automotive, miniature and general purpose industries, and is a versatile tool for general face milling, true 90 degree shoulder milling, full slotting as well as helical ramping and pocket machining.
\nThe Chase2Mill 4NKT new line was put to the test against several competitors\u2019 similar offerings and was seen to substantially increase productivity and tool life.
\nWhile machining grey cast iron, the new Chase2Mill 4NKT increased tool life by 25 percent versus a popular competitor\u2019s similar insert.
\nIn another test against a competitor\u2019s tool on a work piece was made from mild steel, TaeguTec\u2019s new 4NKT increased productivity by 100 percent.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
