Roughing small and medium-sized
components
As a high feed milling cutter, the MultiEdge 2Feed mini is used particularly for roughing small and medium-sized components. With a carrier program in diameters of 16-42mm as a screw-on milling cutter with 2-6 indexable inserts, each with 2 usable cutting edges, as well as in diameters of 35-80mm as a arbor type milling cutter with up to 9 indexable inserts, the MultiEdge 2Feed mini can play out its strengths particularly well - and thus guarantees top performance.
In Action: MultiEdge 2Feed mini
in Die and Mould Making
Would you like to learn more about our MultiEdge 2Feed mini? In this video you can see the advantages of using our high feed milling cutter in the area of die and mould making and how your processes are optimized as a result.
Your advantages
at a glance
- Highest material removal rate through high feed milling strategy - even with less powerful machining centers
- Can be used in almost all materials commonly used in die and mold making: steel, stainless steels, cast iron, superalloys, hardened steel
- Low storage costs through uniform small inserts for all tool diameters and types
Success Story:
Reduction of processing time
For a customer in the general mechanical sector, the aim was to optimize the processing time of an impeller, thereby reducing overall manufacturing costs. The use of the MultiEdge 2Feed mini resulted in maximized customer benefit compared to the previously used tool of a competitor. This involved the use of indexable inserts with our new cutting material for machining stainless steels. ISO-M and ISO-S materials are highly complex to machine.
With a diameter of 35 mm and 5 cutting edges, higher cutting data could be achieved when machining the pump component. The machining time was significantly reduced: Whereas machining previously took about 35 minutes, the MultiEdge 2Feed mini has succeeded in shortening the process by 55 % to about 15 minutes. This more than doubled the material removal volume and reduced the costs for the entire machining process. Another advantage for our customer: The reduction in machining time creates capacity in production for further orders.
Versatile and robust:
cutting grades and geometries
With high-performance coated cutting grades, the MultiEdge 2Feed mini is suitable for numerous applications in dry and wet milling of steel, cast steel and cast iron, stainless and rust-resistant steels, alloyed and unalloyed steels and high tensile materials. A uniform indexable insert for the entire diameter range enables particularly flexible use.
The positive cutting geometry makes high feed milling with the MultiEdge 2Feed mini possible even on low-performance machining centers. Two insert geometries are also available for all versions: While the insert with negative protective chamfer (ER geometry) has a particularly stable cutting edge, the geometry with chip groove (SR geometry) is characterized by a softer cut.
