*Diameter 100 mm for robust material removal
*Seven cutting edges for balanced cutting action
*32 mm bore for secure spindle fit
*Compatible with Sandvik, XTC, ZCC inserts

Greater throughput through balanced geometry and cutting angle

The cutter head’s balanced layout with seven cutting edges and a 45° cutting angle reduces vibration and distributes cutting forces evenly across the tool body. This leads to more consistent tool life per insert and a better surface finish on each pass. The geometry suits both finishing and light semi‑roughing operations where maintaining part tolerances and improving cycle times matter. By choosing a head that couples axial rake and clearance optimally, machinists benefit from predictable chip control and a reduced need for frequent rework.

Secure mounting and straightforward insert replacement

A 32 mm arbor provides a rigid connection to the spindle, improving concentricity and minimising runout during heavy cuts. Insert retention uses an M3.5×8.5 Torx screw tightened with a T15 key, enabling quick and safe insert changes while preserving the seat integrity. This straightforward fixing method shortens setup and maintenance times, helping shops keep machines productive and reduce non‑cutting time.

Broad compatibility for flexible tooling setups

Designed for SEET R245 style indexable inserts, the head is compatible with leading insert manufacturers such as Sandvik, XTC and ZCC, permitting procurement flexibility and straightforward replacement sourcing. The ability to accept widely available inserts supports cost‑effective stocking strategies and simplifies retooling across different machines or jobs without changing clamping or toolholder configurations.

Practical dimensions and handling for workshop integration

With a nominal diameter of 100 mm and a total length of 55 mm, the cutter head occupies minimal overhang while delivering a substantial cutting width. The unit weight of 1.715 kg keeps handling manageable for toolroom staff and reduces inertia effects in spindle dynamics compared with larger heads. These dimensions make the head suitable for compact setups where spindle clearance and tool reach must be balanced against cutting performance.

FAQ

What insert type does this cutter head accept?
The cutter head accepts SEET R245 12T3 indexable inserts; compatibility with inserts from Sandvik, XTC and ZCC is specified for flexible sourcing.

Is the arbor size suitable for standard toolholders?
Yes, the cutter head has a 32 mm bore suitable for matching toolholders and spindles that accept a 32 mm arbor.

How are the inserts secured to the cutter head?
Inserts are fixed using an M3.5×8.5 Torx screw, tightened with a T15 key, providing reliable clamping and straightforward replacement.

What cutting angle does the head use and why does it matter?
The head features a 45° cutting angle, which helps balance radial and axial cutting forces for improved surface finish and reduced vibration.

Can this head be used on compact CNC machines?
With a total length of 55 mm and a moderate weight of 1.715 kg, the head is suitable for compact setups where overhang and spindle clearance are considerations.
