Indexable Insert Milling Cutter D 20 mm, nickel‑plated, internal coolant — TECWERK

The Indexable Insert Milling Cutter D 20 mm is an indexable insert tool designed for APKT‑10 inserts, offering 90° cutting geometry and internal coolant for controlled chip evacuation in demanding milling operations.

• 90° cutting geometry
• Nickel‑plated surface
• Internal coolant supply
• Compatible with APKT‑10 inserts

Reduced machining interruptions through direct coolant delivery

The cutter’s most notable practical advantage is its internal coolant system, which supplies lubricant and coolant directly to the cutting edge. This targeted delivery improves chip evacuation and reduces thermal load at the insert–workpiece interface, resulting in more stable cutting conditions and extended tool life. For operations where repeatability and uptime matter, the built‑in coolant reduces the need for frequent machine stoppages to clear chips and maintain cutting quality.

Consistent clamping and runout precision for repeatable results

A precisely held shank makes a measurable difference in finish and dimensional accuracy. The tool features a 20 mm shank with h6 tolerance, providing a tight fit in standard holders and minimising runout. Together with the nickel‑plated surface, which offers corrosion resistance and helps reduce built‑up edge, the design supports consistent part quality over longer production runs. This combination reduces scrap risk and simplifies quality control during serial machining.

Flexible insert system for economical edge changes

Designed for use with APKT‑10 indexable inserts, the cutter allows quick replacement or indexing of cutting edges rather than complete tool changes. The three‑edged (Z = 3) configuration balances material removal rate with cutting stability, making the tool suitable for a wide range of milling tasks where insert selection can be matched to the workpiece and cutting conditions. The modular approach lowers operating costs and offers straightforward adaptability when production requirements change.

FAQ

Which inserts are compatible with this cutter?
The cutter is compatible with APKT‑10 indexable inserts; the indexable system allows quick insert changes and cost‑effective tooling management (SKU 2000859030NW).

Does the tool have through‑coolant capability?
Yes, the tool features internal coolant that delivers coolant to the cutting zone to support chip evacuation and reduce thermal stress on the insert.

What does the shank tolerance h6 mean for gripping?
A 20 mm shank with h6 tolerance ensures a precise fit in common toolholders and collets, reducing runout and supporting repeatable machining accuracy.

How many cutting edges does the tool use and what is the advantage?
The tool uses a three‑edged configuration (Z = 3), which provides a balance of material removal and cutting stability for many milling applications.

For which applications is the cutter intended?
The cutter is intended for indexable insert milling operations where APKT‑10 inserts are standard; insert grade selection determines the specific material suitability and cutting data.
