Engineered stability for consistent metal removal

The cutter is built around a 16 mm shank, giving a high level of rigidity that stabilises the tool under load. With two cutting edges, the tool balances material removal rate and surface finish while maintaining consistent chip formation. Compatibility with APMT 11T3 inserts from recognised manufacturers such as Korloy allows predictable edge geometry and straightforward inventory management for indexable tooling systems. The design helps to reduce chatter and extend insert life, which in turn supports steady production throughput.

Reach and geometry that support accurate shoulder milling

A 30 mm cutting length paired with an 180 mm overall length provides the reach required for recessed or deeper features without frequent tool changes. The 90° cutting angle is ideal for square-shoulder and face-milling operations, enabling clean, perpendicular surfaces with minimal rework. At approximately 0.28 kg, the assembly remains light enough to avoid unnecessary spindle load while retaining sufficient mass for smooth cutting action. This balance between reach and rigidity contributes directly to repeatable part quality on batch and single-item runs.

Rapid insert replacement and secure clamping minimise downtime

Maintenance is simplified by a proven Torx clamping arrangement: Torx M2.5x5.5 screw secured with a T8 key, which makes insert changes fast and repeatable. Indexable inserts deliver economic benefits because only the insert is consumed, not the whole cutter body. The combination of secure fastening and standardised inserts reduces changeover time on the shop floor, improves operator safety during tool handling and helps maintain consistent cutting conditions across shifts. The result is lower life-cycle costs and higher machine uptime.

FAQ

What insert type does this cutter use?
The S230TM shank cutter is designed for APMT 11T3 indexable inserts; compatible inserts from Korloy were specified for reliable performance.

Is the tool suitable for deep pocketing tasks?
With a 30 mm cutting length and 180 mm overall length, this shank cutter provides extended reach for recessed features while preserving rigidity for accurate machining.

How are inserts secured to the cutter body?
Inserts are clamped using a Torx screw (M2.5x5.5) tightened with a T8 key, ensuring a reproducible and secure fastening for safe, efficient insert changes.

Can this cutter be used for shoulder milling with perpendicular faces?
Yes. The 90° cutting angle and the stable 16 mm shank are appropriate for square-shoulder and face-milling operations that require perpendicular wall finishes.
