1. INSIGHT Carbide T Type Milling Cutter
The T-slot milling cutter is a specialized tool designed for machining T-shaped slots,
commonly used in milling machines or machining centers (though sometimes adapted for lathe operations).
Below is a detailed breakdown of its functions, advantages, and applications.
INSIGHT T Type Milling Cutter Functions
1. Machining T-Slots
- Primarily used to cut T-shaped grooves in workpieces for mounting T-bolts, fixtures, or sliding components (e.g., machine tool tables).
2. Multi-Step Machining
- Forms the T-slot in two stages: first, a vertical slot is milled with an end mill, then the T-slot cutter undercuts the base to create the overhanging "T" shape.
3. Material Versatility
- Suitable for steel, cast iron, aluminum, plastics, and more (tool material and coatings must match workpiece hardness).
2. INSIGHT Machine Carbide T Type End Mill
Carbide T Type End Mill Advantages
1. High Efficiency
- Completes the undercut in a single pass, faster than alternative methods.
2. Precision Machining
- Ensures consistent slot width and depth for accurate fittings.
3. Durability
- Made from HSS (High-Speed Steel) or carbide, often with coatings (TiN, TiAlN) for wear resistance.
4. Wide Compatibility
- Available in standard sizes (e.g., 6mm–50mm slot widths) to match T-bolt specifications.
3. INSIGHT Tungsten T Type Milling Cutter Nanocoating
T Type Milling Cutter Applications
1. Machine Tool Tables
- Cutting T-slots in milling/drilling machine tables for clamping workpieces.
2. Mold & Die Making
- Creating slots for mold fixtures or ejector systems.
3. Automation & Linear Motion
- Machining guide rails for sliding mechanisms in CNC equipment.
4. Construction & Hardware
- Aluminum profiles, structural connectors, and assembly jigs.
