What are the types of milling inserts? A milling blade, also known as a saw blade, is a type of saw blade that contains various elements such as carbon (C), tungsten (W), molybdenum (Mo), chromium (Cr), vanadium (V), cobalt, etc. After heat treatment, it has a high thermal hardness. According to different material classifications: high-speed steel saw blades, integral hard alloy saw blades, tungsten steel saw blades, toothed alloy saw blades, diamond saw blades, etc. Classification based on application: milling blade, machine saw blade, manual saw blade, metal special saw blade (aluminum saw blade, copper saw blade, stainless steel saw blade, etc.), pipe cutting circular saw blade, wood saw blade, stone saw, acrylic saw blade, etc. Surface coating classification: white steel saw blade (natural color), nitriding saw blade (black), titanium plated saw blade (gold), Chromium nitride (color), etc. Other types and names: cutting saw blade, cutting saw blade, grooving saw blade, notched saw blade, integral saw blade, serrated saw blade, ultra-thin saw blade. The types of milling inserts are as follows: cylindrical milling cutter: used for machining flat surfaces on a horizontal milling machine. The cutter teeth are distributed on the circumference of the milling cutter and can be divided into straight teeth and spiral teeth according to the tooth shape. According to the number of teeth, they can be divided into coarse teeth and fine teeth. The spiral coarse tooth milling cutter has a small number of teeth, high tooth strength, and a large chip tolerance space, making it suitable for rough machining; Fine tooth milling cutters are suitable for precision machining. Face milling cutter; Also known as disc milling cutter, it is used for machining flat surfaces on vertical milling machines, end face milling machines, or gantry milling machines. There are cutter teeth on the end face and circumference, as well as coarse and fine teeth. There are three types of structures: integral, toothed, and indexable. End milling blade; Used for machining groove surfaces, step surfaces, etc. The cutter teeth are on the circumference and end face, and cannot feed along the axial direction during operation. When the end milling cutter has end teeth passing through the center, it can be fed axially. Three sided milling insert: used for processing various grooves and step surfaces, with cutter teeth on both sides and all around. Angle milling cutter insert: used for milling grooves at a certain angle, there are two types: single angle milling cutter and double angle milling cutter. Saw blade milling blade: used for processing deep grooves and cutting workpieces, with many teeth on the circumference. In order to reduce friction during the milling process, there are 15 'to 1 small deflection angle on both sides of the cutter teeth. In addition, there are keyway milling cutters, dovetail milling cutters, T-slot milling cutters, and various forming milling cutters. T-shaped milling insert: used for milling T-shaped grooves. Different types of milling inserts have different uses. If you use them correctly, they will be your good helpers.
