Product catalog summary
Overview: The document provides detailed specifications and recommendations for the VFX Series, a high-efficiency milling tool designed for titanium alloys. It highlights the tool's capabilities, including outstanding metal removal rates and advanced features for improved machining performance.
Key Features:
  • Metal Removal Rates: Achieves up to 400 cm3/min with a ø63 cutter.
  • Design and Clamping: Features a highly reliable clamping mechanism and high rigidity design, with a V-shaped bearing face to handle cutting forces effectively.
  • Coolant System: Includes a changeable coolant nozzle with adjustable pressure, enhancing chip removal and preventing welding to the cutting edge.
  • Insert Grade: The MP9030 insert grade combines tough cemented carbide with a titanium compound-based coating for superior wear and fracture resistance.
Technical Specifications:
  • Insert Seat Design: Curved bearing face in the radial direction and V-shaped on the axis of rotation.
  • Coolant Nozzle Options: Available in various diameters to adjust coolant pressure.
  • Cutting Edge: Convex curve design resembling a solid end mill for low resistance and high-quality machining.
Recommended Cutting Conditions:
  • Conditions vary based on machine rigidity, workpiece clamping, and coolant system pressure.
  • Internal coolant is recommended, with external lubricating coolant also effective.
Application Examples:
  • Efficiency improvements and stable machining achieved in aerospace component manufacturing.
  • Increased cutting conditions lead to greater cost reductions and extended tool life.
Contact Information: Includes contact details for MMC Hardmetal and Mitsubishi Materials offices across Europe.
