Mark all as readVSM490
Delivers high surface quality and productivity in shoulder milling applications, including multiple passes (step-down) applications.
Eliminates finishing operations in many applications.
Versatile: steel, cast iron, stainless steel, titanium, aluminum; from roughing to finishing applications.
Double-sided strong insert with 4 cutting edges; high positive geometry for lower cutting forces.
VSM490-10™
Four insert geometries for all material groups in shoulder milling applications
For non-ferrous materials.
Applications
- Face milling with modular M4000 cartridge milling system.
- Full slotting with 100% radial engagement.
- Shoulder milling with step-down capabilities and great wall finish.
- Shoulder milling with low axial and high radial engagement.
- Shoulder milling with low radial and high axial engagement.
- HPC face milling. Excellent choice to clean up castings.
- Trochoidal slot milling.
- Z-axis plunge milling.
- Contour milling.
Best Practices
Best-in-class wall finish with VSM490-10 at axial stepping-down jobs. For many shop floor setups, no additional finishing is required and has a positive impact on shorter machining time and lower tooling cost.
VSM490-15™
Four insert geometries for all material groups in shoulder milling applications
For non-ferrous materials.
First choice for stainless steel. Lower cutting forces.
