Shaft milling cutter S769TM — 16 mm shank, for SOMT 11T3 indexable inserts by Teknik Makina

The Shaft milling cutter S769TM is a compact, indexable-insert milling tool engineered for light to medium-duty chamfering and profile milling with SOMT 11T3 inserts

• For SOMT 11T3 indexable inserts
• 16 mm shank diameter
• 32 mm cutting height
• 45° cutting angle

Reduced downtime through fast insert changes

The core advantage of this cutter is its compatibility with SOMT 11T3 indexable inserts, which enables quick replacement of cutting edges instead of regrinding. The clamping system uses a Torx M3.5x8.5 screw tightened with a T15 key, providing secure fixation with a simple, reproducible routine. For production environments this means shorter tool-change cycles and higher availability of spindle time, supporting predictable work scheduling and lower indirect costs.

Stable performance from a compact, rigid design

A 16 mm shank and a 100 mm overall length deliver an attractive balance between accessibility and rigidity for small to medium toolholders. The 32 mm cutting height allows effective engagement depth while the modest mass (0.153 kg) reduces centrifugal load at higher spindle speeds. These dimensional characteristics translate into consistent cutting behaviour, easier tool-holder selection and reduced vibration during interrupted cuts, which benefits surface finish and tool life.

Precise chamfers and clean contours with a 45° geometry

Configured with a 45° cutting angle, the tool excels at producing defined chamfers and bevels in a single pass, reducing the need for secondary operations. The arrangement with a single cutting edge simplifies chip control and enables straightforward cutting-force prediction, which is useful when programming CAM routines. For users unfamiliar with the term, the cutting angle describes the flank orientation relative to the tool axis and determines the chamfer profile produced on the workpiece.

Practical compatibility and handling in the workshop

Designed to accept inserts from established manufacturers and noted as compatible with Palbit inserts in the data, the cutter fits common industry supply chains. The combination of standardised insert format and Torx fixation supports routine servicing by skilled operators without special equipment. The compact weight and shank size also make mounting and balancing straightforward during tool set-up, contributing to faster machine readiness and repeatable process parameters.

FAQ

Which insert type fits this cutter?
The cutter is made for SOMT 11T3 indexable inserts; compatible insert models from established brands such as Palbit can be used.

How are the inserts secured and changed?
Inserts are fixed with a Torx M3.5x8.5 screw; a T15 key is used for tightening and removal, allowing quick and reproducible insert changes.

What are the key dimensions to consider for tool-holder selection?
Relevant dimensions include a 16 mm shank diameter, 100 mm overall length and 32 mm cutting height, which determine suitable collets and holders for stable clamping.

Is this tool suitable for chamfering operations?
Yes — the 45° cutting angle is optimised for chamfers and bevels, enabling precise profile creation in a single pass.
