High Feed Cutting with High Versatility

The versatile Pramet ISBN10 cutter from Dormer Pramet (Elgin, IL) is an economical cutter for use in a wide variety of materials and is suitable for high feed milling, copy milling, ramping, helical interpolation, slotting and plunging. Its unique pocket design, in combination with the ANHX10 insert, also perform shoulder and face milling to provide a complete package for mold and die applications, from roughing to finishing. A range of diameters are available from 0.625 in to 1.500 in and multiple types, including Parallel and, Modular shanks and Shell mills.

To go with the ISBN10, the Pramet BNGX10 is a patented, double-sided insert with four cutting edges to add to the overall economic and versatile offer. The design makes it suitable for high-feed roughing even with long overhangs, while being compatible with three geometries covering most machined materials. Geometry M is for steels and cast irons, MM for low carbon steels, stainless steels and super alloys, while HM is suitable for hardened materials. A new range of Pramet ANHX10 inserts are now available for finishing operations in shoulder milling, suited for wall and bottom finishing. The single-sided insert has two cutting edges and a positive geometry for long overhangs, helping to decrease vibrations and reduce noise. ​Both inserts offer a smoother cut, while a special through coolant design directs lubrication nearer to the cutting edge. This allows for high feed rates with axial depth of cut up to 1 mm (.040 in). The HFC design has a low setting angle stretching the feed over a large cutting edge thus reducing the thickness of the chip allowing for higher feed rates.
