High-Feed Milling Series for Narrow and Long-Reach Applications



The YG-1 ENMX High-Feed Mill 4 high-feed milling series was developed to meet the stringent demands of versatility, productivity and process stability for today's applications. These types of tools are commonly used in mold & die, power generation and a variety of applications and materials in general machining markets. The YG-1 ENMX High-Feed Mill 4 concept is suitable for high-feed milling with small-diameter tools.

"The unique thickness of the YG-1 ENMX insert offers a series of benefits," said a company spokesperson. "First, YG-1 makes the inserts 20% to 25% thicker than others on the market. This allows normal flank wear to develop without encroaching on the secondary edge and results in full use of all four edges for a more economical solution."

Greater insert thickness also lends itself to stable clamping, enabling predictable and secure machining and longer tool life in tough applications. Also, the thicker negative insert has a positive rake angle that improves chip evacuation and reduces machining load.

In addition, YG-1's corner protection design enhances rigidity while increasing tool life with the optimized chip-breaker geometry.

The ENMX cylindrical cutter is available in diameters from 16 mm to 32 mm (0.75" to 1.25"). Shell mills are available in 40 mm to 50 mm (1.5" to 2") diameters.
