Take advantage of the combination of solid-carbide construction, TiAlN surface treatment and universal geometry for reliable groove machining across diverse materials; order the cutter directly via Metav Werkzeuge or consult the technical team for application-specific advice.

Slot cutter DIN 6527K Type N – Ø 8 mm, solid carbide, TiAlN-coated (TECWERK)

The slot cutter DIN 6527K Type N is a short, two-flute solid-carbide cutter designed for low-vibration milling of grooves, keyways and slots in a broad range of metals and non-ferrous materials

• Solid carbide VHM construction
• TiAlN coating for heat resistance
• Ø 8 mm shank, DIN 6535 HB
• Suitable for roughing and finishing

Predictable cutting performance with premium materials

The combination of solid carbide substrate and TiAlN coating delivers high thermal stability and wear resistance, which translates into longer tool life and steadier cutting conditions. The fine-grain carbide and specialised coating reduce flank wear under elevated temperatures, enabling consistent removal rates during extended cycles. For workshops focused on throughput, this means fewer tool changes and more predictable production planning while maintaining dimensional stability in the machined groove.

Versatile machining across steels, alloys and non-ferrous metals

Thanks to its universal geometry and centre cut, the tool permits both plunging and conventional slotting operations. The short design with a Ø 8 mm shank and DIN 6535 HB cylindrical mount supports rigid clamping and improved concentricity. Suitability for a wide material spectrum — including steels, cast irons, Cr–Ni alloys and aluminium alloys with silicon content — ensures one cutter can address multiple tasks, reducing inventory complexity and set-up time for mixed-production environments.

Efficient results with reduced vibration and stable chip evacuation

The cutter’s two-flute design, dynamic pitch and neck relief are engineered to suppress chatter and improve chip formation, particularly during aggressive passes. The 45° chamfer at the cutting edge minimises burrs and facilitates smoother entry, which is advantageous when alternating between roughing and finishing operations. These attributes combine to lower rework rates and support a stable surface finish, helping to keep cycle times tight and quality high.

Practical integration and handling advantages on the shop floor

Short tool length and a precision h6 shank tolerance aid in maintaining repeatable tool offsets and reducing runout in high-speed spindles. The centre-cut feature shortens set-up procedures for groove starts, while the overall geometry is optimised for low-vibration machining, improving operator confidence and machine uptime. For procurement, the universal applicability reduces the number of specialised cutters required, streamlining logistics and simplifying tool management.

FAQ

Which materials can be machined reliably with this slot cutter?
The slot cutter DIN 6527K Type N (TECWERK, SKU 2000866159NW) is specified for a wide range of materials including steels, steel castings, grey and temper cast irons, Cr–Ni alloys and non‑ferrous metals; it also handles aluminium alloys with silicon and certain abrasive materials.

Is the cutter suitable for both roughing and finishing operations?
Yes, the tool’s geometry and coating make it appropriate for both roughing and finishing; the design balances chip evacuation and edge strength to support heavier cuts as well as fine finishing passes.

What are the advantages of the TiAlN coating on this tool?
The TiAlN coating increases thermal resistance and reduces adhesive wear during high-temperature cutting, which improves life expectancy and stability for longer cycles and tougher materials.

What shank standard and tolerance does the cutter use for mounting?
The cutter features a cylindrical shank compliant with DIN 6535 HB and a precision tolerance of h6, ensuring concentric clamping and reduced runout in suitable toolholders.

How does the dynamic pitch affect machining stability?
Dynamic pitch breaks up harmonic frequencies and reduces the tendency to chatter, which results in smoother cutting, improved surface finish and the ability to increase feed rates with greater confidence.
