Kyocera Releases New High-Feed Milling Series with Larger Depth of Cut Capabilities

October 5, 2021 2:11 pm

Kyocera Precision Tools introduces a new expansion to their most versatile indexable high-feed milling line. The MFH-MAX provides excellent chip removal performance in various applications, including automotive parts, difficult-to-cut materials, and mold machining. With the ability to take on deeper depths of cut (max. 0.098” / 2.5mm), the MFH-MAX wastes little time getting to work and reduces the number of passes needed to machine the workpiece. The MFH-MAX also supports various milling operations including shouldering, slotting, helical milling, and ramping applications.

After the previous success of the MFH-RAPTOR, MFH-Mini, and MFH-Micro, Kyocera’s introduction of the MFH-MAX provides a new alternative to conventional 90° end mills

when roughing to medium-finishing. The MFH-MAX also provides more capabilities than conventional high-feed mills by reducing the number of tool paths and machining time when cutting workpieces with large variations in machining margins.

 

The MFH-MAX utilizes economical, 4-

edge, double-sided inserts with a unique convex cutting edge design. These inserts are available in PR15-series PVD insert grades with Kyocera’s proprietary MEGACOAT NANO coating technology and a wear resistant CVD grade to cover a wide range of materials from steel, stainless, cast iron, and difficult-to-cut-materials.

 

Benefits:

  • Large max depth of cut dramatically improves machining efficiency
  • High chip removal ratio
  • Long tool life and stable machining with anti-vibration design
  • Rigid, chatter-resistant body design
  • Convex insert cutting edge reduces impact when entering the workpiece

Features:

  • Cutting Diameters: 1” – 3” / 22mm – 80mm
  • Double-sided Insert: 4 cutting edges
  • Max D.O.C. = 0.098” (2.5mm)
  • GM Chipbreaker: General Purpose
  • Toolholder Lineup: Face mills, end mills, modular end mills

Applications:

  • Facing and shouldering
  • Slot milling
  • Ramping
  • Helical milling
  • Plunge milling
