High-Feed Milling with MFH-Raptor

The MFH for high-efficiency and high-feed machining. The MFH cutter reduces chattering and is available for a wide range of applications. Convex-edge design reduces cutting forces at initial impact with the workpiece.

The MFH has three types of inserts for a variety of machining options: GM for general use, LD for large depths of cut, and FL with a wiper edge. The GM-type insert is the first recommendation for general use. It is suitable for cycle-time reduction. In this comparison with a conventional-style cutter, the GM-type insert shows superior machining efficiency. A case study shows excellent performance compared to the competitor. The GM-type insert is available for various applications, such as helical milling, plunging, and ramping.

The LD-type insert is suitable for both large depths of cut and high-feed machining. When removing scale from a workpiece, the first pass is at a large depth of cut, but high-feed machining is available from the second pass.

The FL-type insert is suitable for smaller machining centers with low rigidity. It has a wiper edge for finer surface finishes.

For insert grades, in addition to PR1525 for steel and PR1510 for cast iron machining, we have CA6535 for nickel-based heat-resistant alloys and martensitic stainless steel, and PR1535 for titanium alloys and precipitation-hardened stainless steel. This wear-resistance comparison shows slower wear progression after machining for the same amount of time.

Face mills, end mills, and modular heads are available to cover a variety of machining requirements. Consider the MFH for the future of high-efficiency and high-feed machining.
