Boehlerit, a renowned tool manufacturer, has launched its cutting-edge face milling system, KAPPAtec 55N, designed to deliver unmatched stability, efficiency, and precision. This innovative tool is tailored for machining a variety of materials, including common steel, stainless steel, and cast iron, making it a versatile choice for modern machining operations. The system’s advanced features aim to set new benchmarks in the industry by providing superior cutting performance and exceptional durability.
The KAPPAtec 55N offers a wide diameter range, from 80 mm (Z04) to 315 mm (Z16), accommodating a broad spectrum of machining needs. It incorporates three distinct geometries—RK, MP, and MM—that ensure optimal results across diverse applications. With proven cutting material grades, such as coarse and fine grain substrates and high-performance coatings, the system delivers reliability and long-lasting performance, even in demanding environments.
One of the standout features of the KAPPAtec 55N is its ability to achieve high cutting depths of up to 9.5 mm, depending on the geometry of the indexable insert. The system’s disc screw clamping mechanism allows for quick and effortless insert changes, enhancing user convenience and reducing downtime. A robust design, coupled with a shim plate, minimizes vibrations and protects the insert seat in case of breakage, further reinforcing its stability.
In terms of cost-effectiveness, the KAPPAtec 55N shines with 10 cutting edges per indexable insert, making it ideal for medium and heavy-duty machining applications. The system’s unequal spacing reduces vibrations during operations, ensuring smooth machining and superior surface finishes. This innovative approach not only improves efficiency but also contributes to environmentally friendly production by reducing material waste through its modular design.
Patrick Schwaiger, Product Manager, Milling at Boehlerit, expressed pride in the new system, stating, “With the new face milling system, we are setting new standards in machining technology. Our customers can rely on the highest quality, stability, and efficiency. The Boehlerit face milling system is the solution for all companies looking for maximum performance and productivity in their machining operations.”
