Working Principle

AMG's carbide tapered ball nose end mill operates by rotating at high speeds to precisely cut through aluminum alloy materials. The tapered design allows it to adapt to various depths and angles, making it ideal for machining complex mould cavities, slopes, and holes. The ball nose ensures that curved surfaces,and fine features are achieved with high accuracy. Carbide allows the tool to maintain sharpness and perform efficiently even at high cutting speeds. Coatings like TiAlN and DLC reduce friction and heat buildup,extend tool life and improving cutting efficiency.

FAQ

• What aluminum alloys can the carbide tapered ball nose end mill cut?
  This tool is suitable for cutting various aluminum alloys, including common grades like 6061, 7075, and other high-strength alloys, such as some non-ferrous metals.

• How do I optimize cutting parameters?
  For roughing, increase cutting speed (2000 - 4000 m/min) and feed rate (0.1 - 0.3 mm/tooth) to improve machining efficiency. For finishing, reduce the feed rate and cutting depth to ensure smoother surface finishes and precision.

• What is the tool life of the carbide tapered ball nose end mill?
  With proper cutting parameters and cooling, the tool can last for a long time. Carbide tools generally offer a longer life due to their hardness and wear resistance. Regular inspection and appropriate cooling fluids can further extend the tool life.

• How do I select the right tool size?
  Tool size should be selected based on the design requirements of the mould and the complexity of the part. Smaller diameters are ideal for fine details, while larger diameters are better for creating larger cavities.
