Cartridge for Slotting Cutter
Benefit: Cost Saving
Main Forming Process: Metal Injection Moulding
End Use Sector: Cutting Tools, Engineering
Material: Ferrous
Process Steps: MIM, Heat Treatment
Requirements
This component made from 4340 steel is part of the clamping device - changed pocket - for full slot adjustable slotting metal cutters. These slot milling cutters use cutting inserts with four cutting edges. They are suitable for high table feeds resulting in increased productivity.
Benefits
By using MIM technology coupled to heat treatment this has enabled in comparison with machining a parts cost reduction of more than 50% with similar physical properties.
