Massachusetts-based Emuge Corp. has announced the introduction of a new line of solid carbide end mills with unique geometry and chip breakers designed specifically for trochoidal milling. Emuges new Trochoidal End Mills are designed to provide increased metal removal rates (MRR) of over 30 percent, fewer tool paths and longer tool life, while enabling a high axial depth of cut of up to 4XD.
Emuge Trochoidal End Mills are available in two cutting geometries: Jet-Cut for both roughing and finishing in steel applications, and Coolant-Through TiNox-Cut for process-reliable roughing in tough materials such as stainless steel, Inconel and titanium.
The Trochoidal end mill series was developed specifically for advanced milling strategies available in modern CAM (Computer-aided manufacturing) software to optimize the calculation of milling paths and avoid unproductive tool motion.
