M4000 milling cutter range from Walter is opening up new opportunities
One range does it all and can be used to do everything
Walter is enhancing its M4000 milling cutter range with a slot drill and a T-slot cutter. Other new features: The key component of these milling cutters is a system insert for all tool bodies – this component is now available in more indexable insert sizes and geometries, as well as in a new cutting tool grade. As a result, the tools can be finely adjusted and specifically adapted to individual machining tasks.
The universal M4000 milling system from Walter previously consisted of the M4002 high-feed cutter, the M4132 shoulder milling cutter and the M4574 chamfer cutter. The system is now being extended with the addition of the M4575 T-slot cutter and the M4792 slot drill. As a result, users of this tool range can now successfully tackle just about all milling operations in many sectors of the metal cutting industry, using one and the same system. And that's not all. All the milling cutters are also equipped with the same system insert, which is square, positive and has four cutting edges. One indexable insert for all milling cutters, and one milling cutter range for almost all operations. For machinists who are cost-conscious when making their calculations and whose work involves applications that are frequently changing, this universality of tool use is a major factor in achieving higher profitability.
