Solid carbide endmill combines roughing and finishing

Iscar is introducing a solid carbide endmill family of tools. The FINISHRED's innovative Fast Metal Removal (F.M.R.) design makes it possible to machine both roughing and finishing applications in the same process. Projects that require a roughing and a finishing process can now be accomplished with one tool, in one process. The FINISHRED from Iscar is designed to combine these two tool types, allowing the machinist to complete roughing and finishing operations in one process and eliminating the need for both tools. The EFR B44 FINISHRED endmill features four flutes with 45° helix. There are two serrated flutes designed for roughing and two continuous flutes designed for finishing. In addition, the FINISHRED produces both short and long chips simultaneously, making it applicable for slotting and cavity milling applications. The new endmill is suitable for all types of steel in addition to titanium, inconel, and high temperature alloys.
