MINIMASTER PLUS
Minimasterâ„¢ Plus is the next generation line of end mills with replaceable fluted inserts. This replaceable cutting head tool system builds on the success of the industry leading Minimaster system and reaches the highest level of precision and productivity.
A secure cutter/shank interface enables Minimaster Plus to handle higher cutting forces. In turn, these end mills deliver increased metal removal rates in roughing and semi-finishing operations.
Minimaster Plus is a cost-effective solution that enables users to replace only worn inserts rather than the entire tool. Exchangeable inserts for different shanks also allows for higher cutting data, eliminates regrinding and ensures a consistent tool life.
Replacing the insert is fast and easy and can be done without removing the shank from the holder or machine or re-measuring the whole assembly. Once an insert is replaced, the axial and radial positions remain the same for maximum precision.
Available in two-, three-, four-, five-, and eight- flute versions, Minimaster Plus is capable of machining all kinds of materials. Two and three-flute versions feature internal through coolant channels to ensure accurate cooling and efficient chip evacuation.
The four-flute head features larger helix angles and shorter flute lengths measuring 0.7xD, which significantly boosts stability. The added stability makes these heads especially well suited for aggressive material removal in demanding applications and 5-axis machining where cutter ends are used more frequently than the entire flute lengths. They are ideal large radial engagement and small axial engagement conditions.
Five and eight-flute version are recommended for contouring.
Available in diameters ranging from 10 – 16 mm (.39" - .63"), the Minimaster Plus line includes a flexible mix of inserts and shanks.
