Walter has introduced more than 3,000 new cutting tools in inch sizes. The expansion includes the MA267/MA263 Advance milling tools with geometries for milling process at an extremely high metal removal rate and the MA268 for high-velocity rough machining.
Available in diameters from 1/8 in. to 1 in., the MA267/MA263 Advance tools are designed for machining all other ISO N materials, such as copper, brass, bronze, and magnesium-based alloys, in addition to aluminum. With a cylindrical shank, these tools are available with or without chip-splitters.
The WJ30UU grade for these tools is uncoated, and the WJ30CD grade features a wear-resistant zirconium nitride (ZrN) coating. The MA263 with chip breaker geometry reduces cutting pressure and vibration at high feed rates. Both versions offer end geometry that is designed for aggressive ramping.
The Walter MA268 is designed to machine all ISO N materials. The solid carbide milling cutter has a 39-degree helix and is available from 1/4 in. to 1 in. in diameter. The tool has a cylindrical shank and is available with a standard or reduced neck. It is offered in the uncoated WJ30UU grade and the WJ30CD grade with the reliable ZrN coating.
