Carbide Milling Inserts R8 Positive Round with Strong
Edge for General Material Milling
- Excellent Performance, High Cost Performance
- Core Products, Perfect Replacement for Japanese and Korean Products
- General Material Milling
Feature Advantage:
- Completely replace the mainstream products of Japan and South
Korea.
- R8 positive round inserts are used for face milling for larger
parts, profile milling, milling of larger pockets, etc.
- The round inserts are extremely versatile and are the first choice
for profile milling. They can be used for most milling such as face
milling, pocket milling, round bottom milling, and side milling.
- Round inserts are the first choice for roughing tools that are
efficient and have high metal removal rates.
- The round insert tool means a continuously variable lead angle,
ranging from 0 to 90 degrees, depending on the depth of cut.
- The round insert has a very strong cutting edge and is suitable for
high feed rates due to the thin chips that are produced along the
long cutting edge.
- The thin chipping effect is suitable for processing heat-resistant
high-quality alloys and difficult-to-machine materials.
- Comprehensive consideration of various factors, a variety of
chipbreaker design, a reasonable combination of a variety of ideal
coatings, the insert in the low carbon steel, die steel, high alloy
steel, high hardness steel, stainless steel and other materials
have excellent performance .
- During processing, the change in the direction of the cutting force
along the radius of the insert and the resulting pressure are
determined by the actual depth of cut. The development of modern
insert geometries has made round insert milling cutters more
versatile because of their smooth cutting action, low machine power
and low stability requirements.

Technical Information:
- Milling is the most flexible machining method available, and it can
process almost any shape.
- Milling completes metal cutting by rotating a multi-cutting tool to
perform a programmable feed motion in almost any direction along
the workpiece. This cutting action makes milling an effective
general-purpose machining method.
- The choice of machining methods on multi-spindle machines is no
longer easy to choose: in addition to all conventional
applications, milling is undoubtedly competitive for machining
holes, cavities and surfaces commonly used for turning or thread
turning.
- Modern milling is a very common method of machining. With the
continuous development of machine tools, milling has evolved into a
versatile method for processing a large number of different
structural products.
- The development of modern tools also offers more possibilities, and
through the indexable inserts and solid carbide technology,
productivity, reliability and quality consistency can be improved.
- The disadvantage of milling flexibility is that there are many
variables in the process, the factors to be considered increase,
the situation is more complicated, and the optimization brings more
challenges.
- With a certain way of cutting, each cutting edge of the tool can
remove a certain amount of metal, so that chip formation and chip
removal are no longer a top priority.
- The most common milling applications are available for generating
planes. However, with the increasing number of five-axis machining
centers and multi-tasking machines, other processing methods and
surface processing methods have also been greatly developed.
- From the point of view of the part or from the point of view of the
tool path, the main types of milling operations include:
- Face milling
- Shoulder milling
- Profile milling
- Thread milling
- Groove milling
- High feed milling
- Turning
- Cavity milling
- Slope milling
- Plunge milling
- Parting
- Spiral interpolation milling
- Circular interpolation milling
- Cycloidal milling
Milling Application Tips:
- Cutting on the spindle with the shortest possible tool overhang.
- Check power capability and machine rigidity and ensure that the
machine can make the most of the required tool diameter.
- Use the correct tool pitch for cutting to minimize the number of
inserts involved in the cut to avoid vibration, while on the other
hand, for narrow workpieces or when milling exceeds space, make
sure the inserts are adequate.
- In any case, the use of indexable inserts with positive rake
grooves provides smooth cutting and lowest power consumption.
- Be sure to use the correct feed per blade to achieve the correct
cutting action with the recommended maximum chip thickness.
- Select the correct tool diameter that corresponds to the width of
the workpiece.
- Choose the most appropriate lead angle.
- Position and clamp the cutter correctly.
- Climb milling is recommended whenever possible.
- Follow insert maintenance recommendations and monitor tool wear.
- If you need to consider the use of coolant, milling without coolant
can generally be done very well.
Recommended Cutting Parameters:
- The following cutting parameters are recommended range values and
should be adjusted as appropriate after considering the following
factors:
- The specific physical properties of the material being processed.
- Clamping rigidity of the tool and workpiece.
- The power and rigidity of the machine tool.
- The actual condition of the part blank.
- Balance between tool life and machining efficiency.
