ALUMINA INDEXABLE MILLING CUTTERS
INDEXABLE MILLING CUTTERS
Insert Type | Uses | Typical Output / Performance | Key Advantages | Summary |
APMT 11 | Face milling, shoulder milling, slotting, ramping in steels, stainless steels, cast irons and more. | Good general‑purpose performance: according to spec it handles steel/stainless, coatings suit wide range. | Broad material compatibility • Many cutting edges per insert (economical) Good finish and flexibility across materials | The APMT 11 series is a reliable all‑round milling insert for general machining tasks. |
LOGU 03 | High‑feed milling, facing, shoulder milling, slotting, pocketing in materials like titanium alloys, PH stainless steels, etc. | High material removal rate (MRR) especially in weaker clamping situations or thin workpieces. Example specs list “for high feed … low depth of cut, high feed” in LOGU style. | Excellent for high‑feed operations • Low cutting forces → good for weak fixtures Shorter cycle times | LOGU 03 inserts suit more aggressive feed applications and less rigid setups. |
LMNU / LNMU 03 | Similar to the above: precision milling, finishing operations, smaller inserts for geometry control. (Note: sometimes “LMNU” used) | Good finish and versatility; less aggressive removal, more about control and accuracy. | Flexibility in multiple materials Good when detail/accuracy matter over pure volume | LNMU/LMNU 03 is more of a finishing/medium milling insert rather than aggressive roughing. |
WNMU 08 | Heavy flank milling, face milling, general to rough/finish in steel, stainless steel, cast iron and exotics. | Strong performance: Example spec shows feed per tooth 0.1‑0.3 mm, “high axial rake angle reduces cutting force” for WNMU series. | • Large number of cutting edges (6 edges in one spec) • Good economy per insert • Strong for general‑purpose/ rougher operations | WNMU series offers a high‑edge count insert for robust milling across materials which earns good productivity. |
