AMG’s small-size T-slot cutter is a high-performance tool specifically engineered for machining high-precision and high-strength materials in the aerospace industry. Manufactured using premium ultra-fine grain carbide and enhanced with advanced coating technologies, this cutter offers excellent wear resistance, anti-chipping performance, and thermal stability. It is ideal for efficiently machining complex aerospace components and difficult-to-machine materials. The cutter features a “T”-shaped head design, making it perfect for cutting complex grooves and hidden sections, while ensuring clear cutting paths and clean corners.
Applications:
This tool is widely used for precision machining of aerospace parts such as engine components, structural frames, and fastener mounting slots. It is particularly effective for high-efficiency cutting and forming of tough materials like titanium alloys, nickel-based alloys, and stainless steel.
Specification Table:
Item | Parameter Range |
---|---|
Head Diameter (D) | 2mm – 10mm |
Shank Diameter (d) | 4mm – 10mm |
Overall Length (L) | 50mm – 100mm |

Working Principle:
The T-slot cutter features a unique “T”-shaped head design that allows it to cut both the bottom and sidewalls of a groove simultaneously. It effectively reaches into areas inaccessible to conventional end mills, especially hidden or recessed features. This design boosts machining efficiency and ensures precise, clean corners and consistent dimensions.
Key Advantages:
High machining precision, ideal for advanced aerospace manufacturing
Stable cutting with reduced vibration and heat buildup
Long tool life enhanced by AMG’s premium coatings
Strong shank design suitable for high-rigidity clamping systems
Customization available to suit various machines and applications
Customer Selection Guide:
When selecting a T-slot cutter, customers should consider the material being machined (such as titanium alloy, nickel alloy) to choose the appropriate coating and geometry. For tight and complex spaces, small-diameter, long-neck models are recommended. For better stability, reinforced shank versions are ideal. It's also important to verify spindle rigidity and ensure compatibility with cutting parameters. AMG offers customer tool development based on technical drawings or specific machining requirements to help maximize cutting efficiency.
