Face-milling system offers improved rigidity

With a steel and aluminum body construction that offers reduced weight, improved rigidity and vibration-dampening characteristics, the KSCM AluMill face-milling system from Kennametal is designed to achieve high speeds and high-productivity results, especially for high-volume aluminum milling operations.

In particular, automotive applications such as engine blocks and

cylinder heads can benefit from the KSCM AluMill system’s design and

performance. KSCM AluMill cutters are available between 2.5 in. and 12

in. diameters and can accommodate five different cartridge styles for

rough and finish cutting in the same operation or for defined

surface-finish requirements. With easy cartridge insertion and

adjustment, maximum runout error is 3 μm. Reduced weight and the

ability to be precision-balanced also serve to extend tool life.
