MD265 Supreme, the newest range of carbide milling cutters suitable for high-silicon die-cast aluminium

With the advent of the MD265 Supreme and the MC268 Advance, two separate roughing specialists, Walter is expanding its line of solid carbide milling cutters for ISO N machining. This is especially relevant to producers who work with high-silicon die-cast aluminium.

The MD265 Supreme three-edged cutter, which comes in coated and uncoated versions and has a diameter range of 16 to 25 mm, stands out for having firm cutting edges with the Rapax profile and coolant channels arranged in a star pattern. It was created to achieve the high productivity and process dependability needed in industrial industries like the automobile industry.

Whether coated with Walter's new WJ30DD grade or left uncoated with polished surfaces, it may optimise chip removal, lessen material buildup, and increase tool life.

The MC268 Advance range of 6mm to 25mm diameter is another addition to the offering. It is made for long-chipping wrought aluminium alloys, which are frequently used in the aerospace sector, and incorporates a polished Kordel profile that may be utilised worldwide.

The three or four-edged milling cutter's coolant outputs are placed radially. This is perfect for cutting-edge tactics like dynamic milling, and tooling costs are decreased because they can be repaired. Both solid carbide milling cutters seek to speed up material removal (cm3/minute) while decreasing the time spent cutting ISO N materials. Both milling cutters' distinctive V-shaped cutting edge was created internally at Walter.

It minimises heat infiltration into the material, according to Walter, who claims it is the only product on the market. The milling cutters' grooved cutting-edge profiles divide the chips into small, manageable pieces, increasing process dependability and enabling users to operate with lower cutting pressures, spindle output, and increasing output efficiency.
