Haimer’s Power Mill solid carbide end mills are made from fine-grain carbide and are equipped with the company’s Safe-Lock shank pull-out protection system. The end mill geometries are based on an unequal flute and helix design for chatter-free machining. All tools are coated with PVD and feature a smooth surface for improved chip evacuation. According to Haimer, the end mills offer a runout of 5 microns, and all shanks are based to an h5 tolerance.
The Power Mill portfolio includes tools with cutting diameters ranging from 2 to 20 mm and to 1". Tools are available with three, four and five cutting edges and with multiple lengths of cut. In addition, different cutting edge solutions such as sharp, chamfer and radius edges are offered, in addition to a roughing geometry with a cord profile.
