The MS Plus series of general purpose solid carbide end mills has recently been expanded to include 2 additional types. The new types are a medium cutting length, the MPMHV and a short cutting length - the MPSHV. Both types feature a special reduced neck diameter.

Mitsubishi Materials’ first recommendation for highly efficient turning of sintered alloys and cast irons is the new MB4120 grade. Produced to complement the existing MB4020 and MB730 grades, but featuring the latest advancements in CBN particle technology to deliver the step in performance demanded by customers.

The VFX series now has a new advanced grade, MP9130, to add extra performance and reliability. MP9130 is made from an enhanced super-fine cemented carbide substrate for increased toughness that also retains hardness for longer tool life.

VQ, the top of the range series of end mills from Mitsubishi Materials has been further expanded to include a new 5 flute type for machining titanium alloy. This latest addition has been specially designed for deep shoulder and deep full slot milling up to 2 x D.

For the efficient turning of high hardened steel, Mitsubishi Materials has an extensive range of coated CBN insert grades, the BC8100 series. Four grades make up the complete range: BC8105, BC8110, BC8120, BC8130.

GW: Simple and efficient; double through coolant holes; flexibility; performance and reliability

Tough and multi: Mitsubishi Materials extensive high performance, indexable insert milling cutter range has been expanded to include a brand new type - VPX.

After the success of the original AHX640 series, plus the AHX440 type designed with smaller inserts for use on compact and lower power machines, it was an easy decision to develop a new style of AHX cutter for high feed face millling of steels, cast iron and harder materials. The new cutter body of the AHX475S lends itself to higher feeds due to the 75° approach angle geometry.
