45° Face Mill Carbide Inserts

About the product

1.45° Mill inserts are made of steel, stainless steel, castings, and general carbide raw materials with high toughness, high wear resistance, and high temperature resistance, which can adapt to different working conditions.

2.Face mill inserts have moderate blade width and groove design, taking into account the strength and sharpness of the blade band, and excellent chip removal.

3.Face mill carbide inserts have a unique blade design that reduces cutting resistance during cutting and is used for ordinary steel, mold steel, stainless steel, cast iron, non-ferrous metals, etc.

Material Composition

• Carbide Substrate Variants:

• General-Purpose Carbide: Blended with tungsten carbide (WC) and 8–10% cobalt (Co) binder, offering a balance of toughness (resists chipping in castings) and wear resistance (suitable for steel machining).

• High-Temperature Resistant Grade: Infused with titanium carbonitride (TiCN) or tantalum carbide (TaC) to withstand temperatures up to 1,000°C—ideal for stainless steel (304/316) and mold steel (H13) machining.

• Toughness-Optimized Grade: Larger cobalt content (10–12%) for machining brittle materials like cast iron (HT200) or nodular cast iron (QT450), preventing edge fracture during interrupted cuts.

• Coating Options:

• TiAlN (Titanium Aluminum Nitride): Enhances oxidation resistance, perfect for high-speed machining of carbon steel (45#) and alloy steel (40Cr).

• AlCrN (Aluminum Chromium Nitride): Resists chemical reactions with stainless steel, minimizing built-up edge (BUE) formation.

• Uncoated: For non-ferrous metals (aluminum 6061, copper) to avoid coating adhesion and ensure smooth surface finishes.

Key Features

1. Dual-Benefit Blade Design

• Moderate Blade Width: Typically 4–10mm (varies by insert size), balancing structural strength (to handle heavy cutting forces) and cutting sharpness (for fine finishing). The 45° cutting angle optimizes chip flow, reducing friction between the insert and workpiece.

  Engineered Groove Geometry: Curved, shallow chip grooves break chips into short, manageable pieces—preventing tangling in high-feed operations (0.2–0.5 mm/tooth) and ensuring efficient evacuation, even in deep face milling.

  Reduced Cutting Resistance
  Unique blade edge profiling (slight positive rake angle + honed edges) lowers cutting force by 15–20% compared to standard 90° face mill inserts. This minimizes workpiece deformation (critical for thin-walled parts like automotive body panels) and reduces spindle load, extending machine tool life.
  
  

• Ferrous metals: Carbon steel, alloy steel, mold steel, stainless steel, cast iron.

• Non-ferrous metals: Aluminum, copper, brass.

• Castings: Gray cast iron, ductile iron, and sand castings—tough substrate grades handle abrasive inclusions in cast materials.

Applications

• Key Machining Operations:

• Face Milling: Creating flat, smooth surfaces on workpieces (e.g., engine blocks, machine bases) with surface finishes up to Ra 1.6μm.

• Shoulder Milling: Machining 45° chamfers or stepped surfaces on parts like gear blanks or flange mounts.

• Light Roughing/Semi-Finishing: Removing material efficiently while maintaining dimensional accuracy (±0.01mm tolerance).

• Target Industries:

• Automotive: Machining cylinder heads, transmission cases, and chassis components.

• Machinery: Producing large structural parts (e.g., lathe beds, hydraulic manifolds).

• Mold & Die: Semi-finishing mold bases and cavity surfaces in tool steel.

• General Manufacturing: Fabricating custom steel or aluminum parts for industrial equipment.

  
  

Compatible Machines & Toolholders

• Machines:

• CNC Vertical Machining Centers (VMCs): Haas VF-series, Fanuc Robodrill, Mazak VTC.

• CNC Horizontal Machining Centers (HMCs): Okuma MB-series, DMG MORI NHX.

• Manual Milling Machines: Upgraded models with 45° face mill arbors.

• Toolholders:
  Designed for use with standard 45° face mill bodies (e.g., SEKT, SPMT, or APMT insert seats) with rigid clamping systems (screw-on or wedge-lock) to minimize insert runout (≤0.005mm).

Performance & Lifespan

• Recommended Cutting Parameters:

• Steel/Alloy Steel: Cutting speed 120–250 m/min; feed rate 0.2–0.4 mm/tooth.

• Stainless Steel: Cutting speed 80–150 m/min; feed rate 0.15–0.3 mm/tooth (slower to avoid work hardening).

• Aluminum: Cutting speed 300–600 m/min; feed rate 0.3–0.6 mm/tooth.

• Service Life:

• Coated inserts: 150–300 minutes per edge (varies by material; longer for aluminum, shorter for cast iron).

• Uncoated inserts: 80–180 minutes per edge (best for non-ferrous metals).

• Re-sharpenability: Most inserts can be re-sharpened 2–3 times (for general-purpose grades) before replacement, reducing tool costs.

  
  

User Testimonial

Liam Foster, production supervisor at AutoComponent Works, says: “Our 45° face mill inserts changed how we machine engine blocks. The reduced cutting resistance means we can run higher feeds without warping the part, and the chip removal is flawless—no more stopping to clear swarf. On stainless steel manifolds, the AlCrN coating lasts twice as long as our old inserts, cutting tool changes by half. They’re versatile too—we use the same insert for steel and aluminum jobs, simplifying inventory.”
