HF

■ General Features

The HF type high efficiency cutter for aluminum alloy achieves machining without

burrs using a unique insert shape.

New HFFH types with oil holes and BBT30 (BIG-PLUSTM) integrated arbor types

are available.

Purpose HFJ R/ Do not exceed the maximum allowable spindle speed (n max) specified for each cutter diameter. (*See the table on the upper right.) Profiling Groove/ Reduces running costs by significantly increasing the insert regrinding amount (to 1.8mm). T-Slot

Assuming the amount of regrinding

Aluminum/ up to 10 times. Light Alloys High-Speed (* Given the condition of normal wear with ap of 1.4mm or less) Cast Iron

Regrinding Portion The regrinding amount has been significantly increased compared to conventional screw-lock types.

  • Improved chip evacuation with internal coolant (HFFH type and HFFH-BBT30 type) The effect of internal coolant controls chip blockages and packing in the work material and improves tool life. (Use an arbor that supports internal coolant.)
