End mill cuts, polishes simultaneously

Emuge Corp. has introduced the Cut & Form solid-carbide finishing end mills featuring a patented tool geometry that performs cutting and polishing in one operation.

The tool’s dual functionality is attributed to its design, which incorporates three cutting edges to remove material and three burnishing edges to compact the material, producing polished mirror surfaces as fine as 0.08 μm Ra.

This tool is suitable for trimming 2-D contours in non-ferrous materials, such as aluminum and copper, and for the medical, jewelry, and electronics industries.

The tool is available in two types: stub-length and standard-length designs, with cutting diameters of 6, 8, 10, and 12 mm.
