Solid carbide end mill DIN 6527 K — 16 mm, TiAlN, 4‑flute (TECWERK)

Solid carbide end mill DIN 6527 K designed for high‑performance cutting (HPC) and universal use across steels, cast materials and non‑ferrous alloys

• Solid carbide, fine‑grain TiAlN coating
• 4‑flute centre‑cut design
• DIN 6535 HB shank, tolerance h6
• Vibration‑reduced geometry for HPC

Outstanding performance for mixed production runs

The solid carbide construction combined with a TiAlN surface finish delivers thermal resistance and wear protection for sustained high‑speed machining. The tool, specified as 16 mm diameter with a 32 mm cutting length, is engineered for both heavy material removal and finishing passes. Unequal pitch and a centre‑cutting four‑flute layout reduce harmonic excitation, enabling stable cuts in interrupted machining and complex contours. This results in fewer tool changes and more predictable cycle times on mixed production orders.

Reliable clamping and repeatable precision

A cylindrical shank manufactured to DIN 6535 HB with h6 tolerance ensures consistent clamping and minimal run‑out when used with standard collets and chucks. The short form and neck relief grind are optimised for access and to reduce rubbing in deeper pockets, while the 0.2 mm protective chamfer preserves cutting edges during handling. These mechanical details minimise vibration and maintain concentricity, which reduces rework and protects machine spindles in continuous operation.

Versatile suitability across demanding materials

Developed for HPC strategies, the tool is suitable for steel, cast and malleable irons, stainless steels, non‑ferrous metals and aluminium alloys with silicon content, as well as abrasive workpieces. Its combination of geometry and coating supports both roughing and finishing operations without swapping tools between passes. For job shops and production lines seeking to streamline tooling inventories, this cutter offers a practical balance of durability and surface quality.

Practical application notes and integration

When integrated into a machining process, the cutter’s vibration‑reduced geometry and centre‑cut capability simplify plunge operations and reduce the need for specialised holders. The right‑hand helix and unequal flute spacing help to break chips and extend tool life. For parameter selection, match feed and speed to the workpiece material and the machine’s spindle power; for tailored suggestions and cycle optimisation, Metav Werkzeuge’s technical advisors provide application support and can recommend compatible holders or coatings for specific tasks.

FAQ

What materials can this end mill machine effectively?
The solid carbide end mill is specified for steels, cast irons, stainless steels, non‑ferrous metals, special alloys and aluminium with silicon content; it also performs well on abrasive materials due to the TiAlN coating.

Is the cutter suitable for plunge cutting and pocketing?
Yes. The centre‑cutting four‑flute geometry permits plunge operations and pocketing; the unequal pitch helps to reduce vibration during interrupted cuts.

Which shank standards and tolerances apply?
The tool is supplied with a cylindrical shank to DIN 6535 HB and a shank tolerance of h6 for reliable clamping and reproducible run‑out characteristics.

Can the cutter be used for both roughing and finishing?
The geometry and coating make it suitable for both roughing and finishing passes under high‑performance cutting conditions, offering surface quality and material removal rates in a single tool concept.

How does the coating improve tool life?
The TiAlN coating increases heat resistance and reduces adhesion of workpiece material to the flutes, thereby extending tool life and supporting higher cutting speeds where appropriate.
