Face milling head (Planmesserkopf) T472TM — 80 mm, 7 cutters — Teknik Makina

The face milling head T472TM is a compact cutter body for indexable inserts, engineered for precise face milling with HNHX 1006 inserts in small- to medium-sized setups

• 80 mm diameter for compact face milling
• Seven cutting edges for continuous material removal
• Compatible with HNHX 1006 Taegutec inserts
• 27 mm shank diameter, secure M5x12 Torx fixing

Consistent surface finish and efficient material removal

The face milling head delivers a stable cutting platform that reduces vibration and helps achieve a consistent surface finish across the workpiece. With seven cutting edges engaged, the tool distributes cutting forces evenly, which lowers load per edge and extends the life of each indexable insert. The relatively large number of cutters also increases material removal rate without demanding larger spindle power, contributing directly to improved throughput and shorter cycle times in repetitive face milling operations.

Fast, secure mounting for minimal downtime

A precise 27 mm mount and a dedicated Torx fixing (screw M5x12, key T20) enable repeatable seating and fast servicing of the cutter body. The mechanical design focuses on quick insert changes and firm clamping to avoid micro-movements under load. This results in reduced set-up time and simpler maintenance procedures, so the workshop benefits from predictable tool change intervals and fewer interruptions to production.

Cutting geometry explained for reliable chip control

The defined 55° cutting angle promotes a shearing action that reduces cutting forces and encourages stable chip formation at the leading edge. This geometry is particularly effective when paired with the HNHX 1006 insert format from Taegutec, providing a balance between edge strength and chip evacuation. For operators unfamiliar with insert geometry: a higher shear angle generally improves surface quality and can reduce built-up edge under many conditions, leading to fewer reworks and more first-pass compliance.

Compact footprint and predictable handling

With a nominal 80 mm diameter and an overall length of 50 mm, this cutter body is suitable for confined set-ups where access and clearance are limited. The compact mass (approx. 1.063 kg) makes handling easier during mounting and prevents excessive overhang that could amplify deflection. The combination of compact dimensions and robust construction makes the tool a practical choice for shops seeking reliable finishing with straightforward tool management.

FAQ

Which inserts fit this cutter body?
The cutter body accepts HNHX 1006 indexable inserts; these inserts are compatible with Taegutec geometry and deliver the intended cutting performance when mounted in the T472TM tool.

What does the 55° cutting angle mean for cutting performance?
A 55° cutting angle produces a shearing action that often reduces cutting forces and improves chip formation, assisting in achieving consistent surface finishes during face milling.

How is the cutter secured to the arbor or holder?
The tool uses a 27 mm mounting diameter and is fastened using a Torx screw (M5x12) tightened with a T20 key, ensuring repeatable seating and secure fixation during machining.

Is the cutter suitable for tight-access applications?
Yes; the 80 mm diameter and 50 mm overall length provide a compact footprint that is suitable for restricted working spaces where clearance is limited.

What are the handling considerations for workshop staff?
At approximately 1.063 kg, the tool is easy to manoeuvre during installation and reduces the risk of overhang-related deflection; standard torque settings for the M5x12 Torx fixing are recommended for consistent clamping.
