Ceramic Milling Cutters Offer Cost-Efficient Machining of Nickel-Based Alloys



Walter ceramic end mill

Walter has introduced the Walter Prototyp ceramic milling cutters MC275/MC075. These two new tools are designed to deliver increased productivity, cutting speeds and high metal removal rates in the machining of nickel-based alloys. These cost-efficient tools feature enhanced toughness and allow for shorter machining times due to their combination of carbide and ceramic, which also produces enhanced vibration damping.

"Both the MC275, with a solid carbide shank, and the MC075 high speed milling cutter excel at roughing operations on nickel-based alloys such as Inconel 718, synchronous milling and dry machining in full slotting, lateral milling, ramping, helical milling and plunging operations," said a company spokesperson. For both mills, power chucks are recommended. The mills come in 8-25 mm and a corner radius of 1-1.5 mm.
