Emuge Corp. has introduced TiNox-Cut, their new series of end mills designed for cutting tough materials such as nickel alloys like Inconel 718, and Nimonic and tough steels like stainless 316. These are materials used extensively in aerospace and other demanding industries.

“The need for parts and components machined from these materials is on the rise, but they are very difficult to machine and wear out tools fast,” Mr. Peter Matysiak, President of Emuge said in a statement.

“TiNox has a unique variable flute spacing and a serrated chip breaker profile along the cutting edge that provides unmatched material removal rate and impressive RA values for both roughing and semi-finishing, while producing minimal tool wear” said Matysiak.

The proprietary cutting edge design, combined with a high heat-resistant multi-layer TiN/TiAlN coating provides long tool life by minimizing friction/vibration and efficiently evacuating shorter chips, which is especially important in tough, long-chipping materials.

TiNox-Cut end mills are well suited for both roughing and finishing operations. They are available with standard flat ends and optionally with a selecion of corner radii.

The new end mills feature a tight, h11 shank tolerance and a notch in the shank for mechanical clamping. The mills range in diameter from 1/4-inch to 1-inch and in metric sizes from 6mm – 25mm.
