Description
The 4-Flute Ball Nose End Mill is a precision tool used in milling applications. With a diameter of 4mm, this tool features a hemispherical tip, designed for creating smooth contours and intricate 3D shapes. The four flutes (cutting edges) provide a balance between material removal rates and surface finish quality. This tool is commonly made from high-speed steel (HSS) or carbide, offering durability and resistance to wear.
Key Features:
- Diameter: 6mm
- Flutes: 4
- Tip Shape: Ball nose
- Material: High-speed steel (HSS) or carbide
- Coating: May have coatings such as TiN (Titanium Nitride) or TiAlN (Titanium Aluminum Nitride) for increased performance and tool life
- Shank Type: Straight shank for easy mounting in milling machines or CNC routers
Applications:
- 3D Contouring and Profiling:
- Ideal for creating intricate 3D shapes and smooth contours on a workpiece.
- Commonly used in mold and die making, sculpture, and complex surface machining.
- Surface Finishing:
- Provides a fine finish on curved surfaces due to the ball nose design.
- Suitable for finishing passes on a variety of materials.
- Slotting and Grooving:
- Effective for creating slots and grooves in both metals and non-metals.
- The 4-flute design ensures efficient material removal while maintaining a smooth finish.
- Engraving and Detail Work:
- Excellent for engraving detailed patterns and text on surfaces.
- Used in jewelry making, sign making, and decorative engraving.
- Materials:
- Versatile for machining a wide range of materials including steel, aluminum, brass, plastics, and composites.
- Carbide versions are particularly suitable for harder materials and high-speed machining.
Advantages:
- Smooth Finish: The ball nose tip creates a smoother finish compared to flat end mills.
- Versatility: Suitable for a wide range of materials and applications.
- Precision: Excellent for detailed work and complex geometries.
- Durability: Available in high-performance materials and coatings for extended tool life.
