Round Insert Cutter T293TM — Ø63 mm, six-edge design | Teknik Makina

The Round Insert Cutter T293TM is a purpose-designed face milling tool for insert-based machining, offering compact performance for workshop and production environments where quick insert changes and reliable clamping are essential

• Compatible with RDMT 1003 inserts
• 63 mm cutter diameter for compact operations
• Six cutting edges for steady material removal
• Secure clamping with M3.5 Torx screws

Efficient, insert-based machining for short cycle times

The cutter is optimised for economical machining by accepting indexable inserts (RDMT 1003), which enables rapid reconditioning of the cutting edge without regrinding. The combination of a Ø63 mm body and six cutting edges provides a balance between material removal rate and tool life, making the tool suited to repetitive face-milling operations. The design focuses on reducing machine idle time: inserts are replaced in seconds and the cutter is returned to productive service immediately, which supports a steady production flow and controlled process costs.

Reliable clamping and simple maintenance to lower downtime

A robust clamping system, specified with a M3.5 locking screw and M3.5x8.5 Torx screw, secures each insert reliably during cutting. The use of a standard T15 key for fastening ensures compatibility with common workshop tooling and simplifies maintenance procedures. Because clamping hardware and spare fasteners are standard sizes, maintenance routines are faster and less error-prone, which translates into measurable reductions in set-up time and an improved availability rate for the tool holder.

Compact tool body and proven compatibility for flexible integration

With a 22 mm shank (toolholder connection) and an overall length of 40 mm, the cutter is dimensioned for both compact set-ups and machines with limited clearance. The compact form factor is advantageous where tool overhang must be minimised to reduce vibration and improve surface finish. The tool’s compatibility with RDMT 1003 inserts allows straightforward integration into existing tooling systems, permitting a modular approach to tooling inventory and enabling cost-efficient stocking of inserts rather than complete cutters.

Practical specification and workshop-ready details

The cutter’s balanced construction and a total weight of 0.46 kg make handling and tool changes straightforward on the shop floor. The geometry with six cutting edges smooths material removal and helps to distribute cutting forces evenly across the insert set. Where process planners require consistent repeatability, the combination of standardised insert form, secure Torx clamping and compact Ø63 mm body provides a predictable performance profile that supports stable cycle times and repeatable part quality.

FAQ

What inserts are compatible with this cutter?
The cutter accepts RDMT 1003 indexable inserts; the tool body is designed specifically for that insert form to ensure correct seating and cutting geometry.

How many cutting edges does the tool provide?
This face mill features six cutting edges, which distributes cutting forces and supports steady material removal in repetitive operations.

What is the shank diameter and how does it affect machine set-up?
The shank diameter is 22 mm, a compact size that suits machines or holders requiring reduced overhang and helps maintain rigidity in short-reach milling tasks.

Which fastening hardware is required for insert replacement?
Insert clamping uses a M3.5 locking screw and a M3.5x8.5 Torx screw, tightened with a T15 key, allowing straightforward maintenance with common workshop tools.

Is this cutter suitable for a modular tooling system?
Yes, being compatible with standard RDMT 1003 inserts, the cutter supports a modular tooling approach that simplifies stock management and reduces the need for full-body replacements.
