Concave Milling Cutter

Concave milling cutters are cutting tools used in machine tools, specifically in metalworking machinery. They are part of the supply class called Cutting Tools For Machine Tools, which falls under the supply group Metalworking Machinery.

Concave milling cutters are designed with a curved or concave shape on the cutting edge. This shape allows them to create concave or curved surfaces on the workpiece during the milling process. They are commonly used in applications where a concave shape is required, such as in the production of gears, grooves, or curved slots.

These milling cutters are typically made from high-speed steel (HSS) or carbide materials, which provide excellent cutting performance and durability. They come in various sizes and configurations to accommodate different milling requirements.

When using concave milling cutters, it is important to ensure proper setup and alignment to achieve accurate and precise results. Additionally, proper cutting speeds, feeds, and coolant usage should be considered to optimize the cutting process and extend the tool's lifespan.

Overall, concave milling cutters are essential tools in metalworking machinery, enabling the creation of concave surfaces with precision and efficiency.
