Seco Tools is introducing a new Ball nose cutter designed

to deliver higher performance and better reliability in

copy milling applications. This high metal removal cutter

can handle very high feed rates thanks to a rigid design

and the two effective teeth. K=2. The best cutter on the

market, R218.20.

R218.20 has a unique seating with tenon location to avoid

stress on the locking screw and to prevent insert rotation.

The chip space is large and includes a big radius to make the

cutter stronger in the centre. The insert has two easy cutting

edges on the same insert.

MAXIMUM SECURITY AND RELIABILITYThe insert and body strength gives the cutter maximum

security and reliability, which makes it suitable for use in

unmanned production.

R218.20 can handle very high feed rates, which gives

it very good productivity on modern machine tools. It is

also cost-effective under peak

performance thanks to the in-

sert and body strength. The new

Ball nose cutter is a versatile cutter and can be used from

semi-finishing to heavy roughing operations in all kinds

of material.

PRODUCT ADVANTAGESThe insert edge is S curved to reduce cutting forces,

and has a constant cutting rake all along the edge. Posi-

tive axial rake gives a smooth cutting action and allows

up-machining possibilities, and reinforcement in the cen-

tre makes it breakage resistant. A smooth geometry gener-

ates very low cutting forces by using an adapted clearance

all along the edge, which leads to increased tool life.

The inserts are designed in two different geometrical

shapes and two grades, which make it easy to always find

the right alternative depending on application.

PRODUCT RANGER218.20 is available in the diameter range 1650 mm.

Cutters are available in various shank styles such

as Cylindrical, Cylindrical/Weldon, Seco/

Weldon, Weldon pin drive, Morse

taper and Combimaster

heads.

the stress on the locking screw and prevents the insert

from rotating in the pocket seat.

To improve the chip evacuation and reduce the risk of chip

jamming the cutter has a large chip space. In the centre a

large radius has been provided in order to make the cutter

stronger to handle the impact from the cutting forces.

Seco Tools High Feed solution 217/220.21 and Mini-

master are tools for very high metal removal rates and

increased productivity.

Compared with round insert cutters, which are per-

fect for copy milling when using small overhang and/or

machining under stable conditions, the High Feed cutters

are superior when machining in deep pockets with long

overhang and/or machining under unstable conditions

depending on either the machined component or the

long overhang or the machine. The reason is reduced

vibrations thanks to a favourable direction of the cutting

forces.

The High Feed cutters are flexible tools for pocketing

and plunging specially designed for maximum metal

removal rates under unfavourable conditions.

STABLE AND PRODUCTIVEHigh Feed cutters have both predictable and very long

tool life due to the forces being directed towards the

spindle that maximising process stability, practically free

from vibrations.

Thanks to body and inserts geometries, a wide range of

component materials can be machined.

The total machining time can be reduced up to 60%.

PRODUCT ADVANTAGESPocketing with High Feed Cutters is the

most effective and productive roughing

method for unstable conditions, extremely

high metal removal rates can be reached.

Perfect for boosting productivity in applica-

tions like pocketing where you can use very

high feed rates during a difficult machining

process using low depths of cut,

but still reach metal removal

rates up to 1,000 cm/min.

In plunging operations you are productive due to the

large radial depths of cut. It is a highly productive method

for deep cavities and shoulders. You can use the High Feed

Cutters in plunging operations with large overhangs and in

face milling at small depths of cut with very high feed rates.

PRODUCT RANGESeco has a very wide range of High Feed Cut-

ters. The widest range on the market. From

diameter 8100 mm.

Minimaster High Feed inserts are available

from diameter 816 mm.

Cutters with indexable inserts range from diameter

16100 mm for shank types and arbor mounting. They

are also available with Seco Combimaster milling cutter

system including different shank types, shank lengths and

interchangeable cutter heads.

High Feed Cutters from diameter 88-208 mm are also avail-

able and are intended mainly for face milling applications.

MAXIMUM METAL REMOVAL


12/28

12

3 TIMES AS FAST WHEN USING LONG OVERHANG

The cutting edges of the High Feed tools are designed

with a very big radius in comparison to the diameter of the

tools. This in combination with using small depths of cuts

means that the cutting forces are directed in the axial di-

rection towards the spindle, which is very favourable when

using long overhangs. The result is also that very high feed

rates can be used without tendencies to vibrations.

Round insert cutters are the most flexible tools in 3D

milling. They can be used for many types of applications

like circular interpolation and helical interpolation ramp-

ing, shoulder milling, slot milling, plunging and ramping.

This makes this type of cutter more effective than most of

the products used for 3D milling.

The round insert is a very strong geometry, which

makes it suitable for machining in all types of materials.

The strong geometrical shape also allows high material

removal rate.

STRONG AND STABLERound inserts are available in many different insert ge-

ometries in order to machine all types of materials from

the most light cutting to the most difficult.

Shank style cutters are available in different lengths for

Seco Minimaster for 3D milling is available in 2- and 3-

flute versions, with 3-flute version it is possible to improve

the productivity with higher feed rates, and with 2-flute

version it is possible to minimize the risk of vibration.

Seco have continuously improved and extended the

Minimaster range since its introduction in 1988. Today

the Minimaster range is close to perfect, a unique end

milling system which can combine different solutions due

to the big range of inserts and shanks. The Minimaster

system consists of a broad range of different shanks and

inserts types. There are no other end milling systems,

which are more flexible and varied as Seco Minimaster.

There are more than 600 combinations of inserts and

shanks for each diameter between 6 and 20 mm.

VERSATILE AND COMPETITIVEMinimaster is a two piece design where you can combine

shanks and inserts depending on the application, which

makes Minimaster the most versatile end mill system on

the market. This also means that with Minimaster you are

able to find a solution for almost every application.

Minimaster is a stable and rigid system and there is al-

ways a combination to minimize the overhang, and attain

maximum stability.

PRODUCT ADVANTAGESWhen using Minimaster you have a big advantage in the two

piece design. When the insert is worn out you just put an-

other insert in the shank and you are ready for action again.

Minimaster is also an economical solution since you

are not paying for more solid carbide than that which is

in use.

PRODUCT RANGEMinimaster is available from

620 mm in diameter. The

2-flute inserts can be ordered in many different versions

like under sized inserts for keyway, square shoulder in-

serts with sharp edges or corner radius. Centre drilling,

One of the strongest advantages is

that you only change the insert, un-

like solid carbide cutters where youchange the complete tool. You get rid

of regrinding. You dont have to plan

things around the regrinding. Instead

you always start with new, fresh cut-

ting edges after every exchange.

Plunging was invented to be able to remove large quantities

of material and is especially adapted for applications where

long overhang is needed, for example in 3D milling.

Seco was the first to introduce standard plunging cut-

ters on the market, which means that we have long experi-

ence in the field and the widest range on the market.

Under normal conditions, a large overhang automati-

cally means that cutting data must be reduced to prevent

deflection of the tool, often leading to vibrations, poor

surface finish and inferior dimensional accuracy. How-

ever, the principal of operation of the plunging cutter

enables high cutting data to be used at overhangs many

times greater than in conventional operations.

PRODUCT ADVANTAGESPlunging is the most efficient milling system in terms of

removing lots of materials in the fastest possible way.

Plunging cutters allow very high material removal rates

which makes them state-of-the-art for roughing in 3D

milling applications.

When plunging the cutting forces are directed in the

direction of the spindle.

This means that plunging has an outstanding perform-

ance when machining with large overhangs. Seco Tools

offers the widest range of standard plunge milling cutters

on the market.

PRODUCT RANGER217/220-79-12 with SCET12-

inserts are intended for roughing operations. Diameter

range 32200 mm.

R217/220.79 with AP16-inserts ( 40125 mm) and

L217.79 with XC13-inserts ( 3250 mm) are intended for

semi-finishing.

R217.79 with XO-09 inserts ( 2050 mm) and

R217/220.79 with XO-12 inserts ( 2563 mm) are

intended for finishing operations.

The above mentioned cutters with XO-inserts can be

used for both up-copying and down-copying in an axial

feed direction e.g. for deep walls in mould tools.

All cutter systems have internal coolant holes for best

chip evacuation.

Plunging inserts are also available in Minimaster in

diameter 616 mm.
