Introduction of milling cutter

Milling cutter

Milling cutter is the most widely used tool in wood cutting. It is widely used in furniture manufacturing, wood floor production and other wood products production.

1、 Types and characteristics of milling cutters

Because milling cutters are used in the processing of many wooden parts, there are many types of milling cutters.

According to the different clamping methods of milling cutter on machine tool spindle, milling cutter can be divided into sleeve milling cutter and shank milling cutter.

The sleeve milling cutter is provided with a sleeve hole, which can be directly sleeved on the main shaft through the tool clamping head;

One end of the shank milling cutter has a blade, and the other end is a tail shank. The tail shank has cylindrical shape, conical shape and thread shape.

Here is an introduction to the shank milling cutter

Handle milling cutters are mostly installed on upper shaft end milling and portable router. The shank diameter is 6, 12, 16, 1 / 4 "and 1 / 2", the cutter head diameter is 3 ~ 26, and the blade is generally integral (or integral welding).

According to different structures, milling cutters can be divided into integral milling cutter, assembly milling cutter and combined milling cutter.

The cutter body and cutting edge of the integral milling cutter are integrated (or welded as a whole).

Assembly milling cutter refers to the milling cutter formed by clamping the cutting blade or cutter teeth on the cutter body by mechanical clamping.

Combined milling cutter is a composite milling cutter composed of two or more cutters connected in a certain way. Its single cutter can be integral or assembled.

According to the different tooth back forms of milling cutter, milling cutter can be divided into shovel tooth milling cutter, sharp tooth milling cutter, non shovel tooth milling cutter and saw blade milling cutter. The tooth back of the shovel tooth milling cutter is Archimedes spiral curve; The tooth back of sharp tooth milling cutter is a straight line; The tooth back of non relieving milling cutter is circular arc.

According to the different processing uses of milling cutters, there are plane milling cutters, forming milling cutters, slotting milling cutters and tenon milling cutters.
