KEY BENEFITS • Reduced power consumption • Increased cutting efficiency • Improved chip evacuation • Superior workpiece surface finishes • Increased tool life • Superior process stability NIAGARA CUTTER ® A245/A345 UPGRADE MAXIMIZE YOUR ISO-N PRODUCTIVITY Machining non-ferrous materials like aluminum, brass, copper and other ISO-N materials allows manufacturers to push their machines to the limit and achieve the highest metal removal rates (MRR). Push past those limits and achieve higher MRR in ISO-N materials – even with older and less rigid machines – with the upgraded family of A245/A345 solid carbide end mills from Niagara Cutter ® . Re-engineered tool geometry coupled with a new proprietary PVD coating developed by Niagara Cutter ® result in a minimum of 20% less power consumption, yielding improved cutting efficiency for superior surface finishes and exceptional tool life. Machining aluminum and other gummy ISO-N materials efficiently requires tools that can handle aggressive speeds and feeds and minimize built-up edge, even in less stable machining environments. The existing A245/A345 product line helps to address these issues with a cylindrical margin that minimizes chatter and vibration for superior surface finishes. Now, these products feature a polished K-land and optimized flute shape to control chip formation and reduce friction. Paired with a new proprietary Niagara Cutter ® ANF (aluminum non-ferrous) PVD coating with the smoothness needed to minimize built-up edge. As a result, manufacturers can reduce cutting forces and power consumption for truly exceptional MRR in ISO-N materials. RANGE OVERVIEW Inch & metric range expansion encompassing select existing Niagara Cutter ® geometries with and without ANF PVD coating: • 2-flute configurations - A245 square corner end mill - AB245 ball end mill • 3-flute configurations - A345 square corner end mill - A345R corner radius end mill - A345M metric square corner end mill (ANF coated only) - AN345 reduced neck square corner end mill - AN345R reduced neck corner radius end mill (ANF coated only) Optimized flute shape with K-land ANF coating For more information, please go to NIAGARACUTTER.COM or MyPages on SECOTOOLS.COM
