The Seco 335.98 Disc Milling Cutter system is designed to reduce costs and boost efficiency in mass production environments. It delivers the lowest cost per part for half-side and face disc milling operations. The system’s advanced combination of cutter body and insert geometries optimizes performance, offering a strong interface, a free-cutting design, and minimized cutting forces.
The Seco 335.98 features dedicated inserts with eight usable cutting edges. These inserts’ unique geometries contribute to a significant 60% longer lifespan during both left-hand and right-hand side disc milling operations.
Benjamin Michelet, Seco’s product manager, explained, “The 335.98 disc milling cutter is designed to provide maximum performance, especially for high-volume production that involves left-hand and right-hand side milling. Manufacturers, particularly in industries like automotive, will see a major increase in productivity while benefiting from significant cost savings due to reduced insert consumption.”
Optional Insert Cassettes Offer Flexibility
The Seco 335.98 cutter bodies are also available with optional insert cassettes. These cassettes allow for quick and easy insert changes, providing added flexibility. In case of damage, only the cassette needs replacing, significantly lowering repair costs compared to replacing the entire cutter body.
The system offers a robust, reliable interface between the cutter body and insert, ensuring maximum stability. This setup also simplifies insert setup and indexing, preventing mounting mistakes. The inserts’ free-cutting design enhances chip flow, reducing the risk of jams. This feature minimizes cutting forces, eliminates vibration, and improves part quality.
Wide Range of Options for Customization
The inserts for the Seco 335.98 come in two standard sizes with various grades and corner radii options, making the system adaptable to different materials and applications. For even further optimization, Seco’s custom tools department offers on-demand customizations tailored to specific high-volume needs.
The Seco 335.98 Disc Milling Cutter system represents a major advancement in cost-effective, high-performance milling, making it an ideal choice for manufacturers looking to increase productivity and reduce tool wear in high-demand environments.
