TaeguTec’s innovative WIN-MILL series is the quintessential cutting tool for machining small parts as well as a powerful cutting tool for the miniature industry.
The WIN-SFEED indexable line for 90-degree shoulder milling replaces the machining range of solid carbide end mills starting at Ø8 (2z). Compared to solid carbide end mills, this powerful and effective range of cutters and interchangeable inserts increases productivity and lowers machining costs.
The unique and advanced V-shape insert bottom design’s strong and durable structure is geared towards small diameter tools, down to a 6 mm diameter. The V-shaped pocket possesses a durable structure that allows for highly stable insert positioning and strong insert clamping, which are vitally important in small-diameter cutters.
The WinSFeed WIN-MILL line’s enhanced cutting edge design improves tool life and productivity, whereas its high rake angle design reduces cutting loads, resulting in excellent chip evacuation.
Furthermore, WIN-MILL’s large core diameter enables mounting an increased number of inserts so that they can be used for various applications due to their high ramp-down and plunging capabilities. Additional inserts for high feed rates can be mounted on the same tool, which allows for 0.7mm feed per tooth in shallow depths of cut, combining high speeds and feeds for higher productivity.
The increased productivity achieved by WIN-MILL’s high ramping angle covers a wide variety of applications such as shouldering, slotting, straight ramping, helical ramping, facing and high-feed milling.
Designed for various applications, it is equipped with the pressed type CVKT 05 insert for general applications, the side ground type CVHT 05-L insert for finishing with low cutting force and the high feed CVKT 05-HF insert for high-feed conditions.
Recently, TaeguTec’s premium WIN-MILL line started offering the next generation of shoulder milling: the high-productivity AVKT inserts and cutters that maximise productivity in the single sided, two-corner shoulder milling insert market and are suitable for various applications.
The new insert includes a V-shape bottom contact for stronger and more stable clamping, providing excellent machining performance even in both ramping and step-down machining. In addition, the new AVKT insert includes a higher ramping angle over similar inserts with the intention of providing higher productivity.
Moreover, TaeguTec offers rigidity-enhanced end mills to the powerful WIN-MILL family. The short-length type end mill is now offered between 6 mm and 12 mm, and a taper shank style is available from 8mm to 12mm.
In the real world, the WIN-MILL line has helped manufacturers improve their overall milling performance with ease.
An automobile components manufacturer (all names withheld) increased shoulder end milling production by 210 per cent over a competitor’s comparable offering while machining a SUS304 stainless steel small and thin component with the WIN-MILL CVHT 05-L line, says TaeguTec.
The production output and tool life skyrocketed for another company’s facing operations after switching over to the WIN-MILL CVKT 05 line. Tool life increased by 200 per cent while productivity rose to 154 per cent for the machining of a SUS 13 stainless steel clamp.
The cavity machining of a pre-hardened steel injection mould part also soared by an incredible 300 per cent over the competitor’s similar tool.
Overall, this milling marvel combines high speeds and feeds to boost productivity.
