Horn has developed two solid-carbide milling cutters for machining stainless steels: the DSHPR and the DSR.
The DSHPR variant is suitable as both a finishing and a roughing tool. The geometry is also adapted for trochoidal machining and plunging. The DSR type has a very sharp cutting edge geometry and short design, which makes it suitable for very small parts and unstable clamping conditions, such as in the medical and watchmaking industries.
In the DSHPR line, all tools are available with four teeth and in diameters from 2 mm to 20 mm. The DSR variant has three teeth in diameters from 1 mm to 10 mm.
Because of their geometry and good chip breaking, these milling tools are suitable for machining numerous materials besides stainless. According to the company, the combination of the substrate, the macro and micro geometry, and the IG3 coating creates long tool life. The coating in particular offers high temperature resistance for machining steels alloyed with chromium, nickel, and molybdenum.
