Disc milling cutter DF112TM — 160 mm diameter, for SCMT 1204 indexable inserts (Teknik Makina)

A robust disc milling cutter DF112TM designed for heavy-duty facing and slotting operations on CNC milling spindles, compatible with standard indexable inserts for fast insert changes and consistent cutting performance

• 160 mm diameter for high material removal
• 12 cutting edges for consistent cutting
• Compatible with SCMT 1204 indexable inserts
• 40 mm arbor bore and 16 mm cutting height

Higher throughput through larger cutter geometry

With a 160 mm diameter and 12 cutting edges, this disc cutter delivers elevated material removal rates that shorten cycle times while maintaining a predictable chip load. The specified 50 mm axial depth allows deeper engagement where permitted by the machining strategy, reducing the need for multiple passes. In practical terms, the larger cutter diameter spreads cutting forces over more edges, which helps to stabilise the process and supports higher productivity on roughing and semi-finishing operations.

Secure insert clamping for repeatable accuracy

Engineered for indexable inserts of type SCMT 1204, the cutter uses torque-controlled fastenings to ensure repeatable seating of the inserts. The fastener specification M5x12 and matching key T20 provide a robust clamping interface that simplifies replacement and reduces the risk of misalignment. The modular insert system reduces downtime, as worn cutting edges are replaced quickly without removing the whole tool, translating into better machine utilisation and lower tooling costs per part.

Straightforward mounting and stable cutting behaviour

The cutter is supplied with a 40 mm arbor bore, enabling direct mounting in common arbors or holders and easing tool changeover in standard tool magazines. A 16 mm cutting height is matched to the insert geometry to maintain a stable engagement profile, while the total mass of 1.634 kg contributes to damping of vibrations during interrupted cuts. These features combine to offer a predictable, easy-to-set-up tool that integrates into existing machining centres without complex adaptations.

Practical uses and machining approach

Designed primarily for facing and slotting tasks, this disc milling cutter performs well in operations that require a balance between stock removal and dimensional control. The use of replaceable inserts means that the cutter body can remain in service while individual cutting edges are rotated or replaced as required, making the system cost-effective for batch production and maintenance-friendly in job-shop environments. For best results, select feed rates and depths of cut that match the chosen insert grade and the machine’s rigidity to exploit the cutter’s geometry.

FAQ

Which insert type fits this cutter?
The cutter is designed for SCMT 1204 indexable inserts; Teknik Makina specifies this form for correct seating and cutting geometry.

What arbor diameter is required for mounting?
Mounting requires a 40 mm arbor bore; adaptors or holders should match this diameter for secure installation of the DF112TM.

How many cutting edges does the tool provide?
The disc milling cutter uses 12 cutting edges, which spreads cutting forces and supports steady material removal.

What tools are needed to change inserts?
Insert changes use an M5x12 fastening screw and a T20 Torx key for secure, repeatable clamping of the SCMT 1204 inserts on the DF112TM.

Is a technical drawing or CAD file available?
Technical drawings and CAD data are often available on request; refer to the DF112TM product documentation when planning holder compatibility and toolpaths.
