A side milling cutter is a cutting tool for groove milling, боковая резка, slot machining, фрезерование уступов, and side surface machining. Manufacturers use it on milling machines and CNC machining centers when a workpiece needs stable side cutting or accurate groove width.
Compared with a standard end mill, a side milling cutter is often better for wider grooves, side faces, плечи, and special slotting operations. Поэтому, it is suitable for fixture parts, компоненты пресс-формы, части машин, автомобильные детали, and custom CNC metal parts.
Cutterbest supplies carbide side milling cutters in different diameters, cutting widths, Количество флейт, покрытия, and custom designs. Кроме того, we can support custom side milling cutter production based on your drawing, материал, machine, и сокращение требований.
What Is a Side Milling Cutter?
A side milling cutter is a rotary milling tool that cuts with its side teeth and outer cutting edges. It is mainly used to machine grooves, слоты, плечи, и боковые поверхности.
Many manufacturers choose side milling cutters when a standard end mill is not the best choice for the groove width, side cutting area, or machining stability. Как результат, this tool is useful for fixture plates, machine parts, компоненты пресс-формы, and other precision metal parts.
