Shank milling cutter S224TM – 12 mm diameter, APMT 11T3 insert interface (Teknik Makina)

The S224TM is a shank milling cutter configured for APMT 11T3 indexable inserts, intended for precision milling tasks where rapid insert changes and consistent repeatability are required.

• 12 mm cutting diameter
• APMT 11T3 indexable insert interface
• 16 mm shank for standard holders
• Torx clamp M2.5x5.5, T8 key required

Reliable modularity for lower tooling costs and quicker changeovers

The body accepts APMT 11T3 indexable inserts, enabling a modular approach that reduces overall tooling expenditure and shortens machine downtime. By replacing only the worn insert rather than the whole cutter, maintenance cycles are simplified and inventory can be optimised. The combination of a 12 mm cutting diameter with a 25 mm cutting length provides a compact working envelope while maintaining cutting capacity for common profiling and slotting tasks. This modular design is particularly advantageous in small-batch production and toolrooms where changeover speed matters.

Secure clamping and stable shank for accurate machining

A secure Torx clamping screw ( M2.5x5.5 ) fastened with a T8 key ensures the insert remains seated under radial and axial loads, contributing to consistent surface quality and repeatable results. The 16 mm shank gives a rigid connection to standard toolholders, lowering the risk of run-out and vibration during milling. With a single cutting edge and a 90° cutting angle, the cutter body is configured for predictable chip formation and straightforward process planning. The low mass (approx. 0.126 kg) facilitates fast tool changes and reduces centrifugal effects at higher spindle speeds.

Compatibility, maintenance and partner support for reliable production

The cutter is compatible with inserts from Korloy in the APMT 11T3 format, allowing access to a broad range of grades and chipbreaker geometries without changing the tool body. Replacement and tightening follow a simple routine — loosen the Torx screw with a T8 key, replace the insert and retighten to the specified torque — reducing planned maintenance time. For customers seeking guidance on insert grades or machining parameters, Metav Werkzeuge brings decades of metrology and tooling experience, a wide product range and a reliable supply chain from Emmerich to the workshop. Trust and traceability are supported by a central stock and quality filter for the European market.
