April 2, 2023

The MS plus end mill series is a range of general-purpose end mills with an excellent cost performance ratio that has been held in high regard by many customers.

The coating that the MS plus adopts is an original coating from Mitsubishi Materials. This coating with (Al,Ti)N and (Al,Cr)N layers enables machining of carbon steels as well as pre-hardened and high-hardness steels. It is a coating that can be used for a wide range of workpiece materials and displays greatly improved wear resistance.

Mitsubishi Materials is pleased to announce the addition of a chamfer cutter, MP3C, to the current range. This addition achieves excellent tool life and high efficiency machining when traverse feeding to machine a chamfer.

Key features of the 3-flute chamfer cutter, MP3C, an addition to the MS plus End Mill Series:

  1. An optimum helix angle provides great sharpness and reduces burrs. The chamfer angle is 45°.
     
  2. Can be used at high feed rates and has an extended tool life due to the 3-flute geometry. Burrs are greatly reduced due to the irregular helix flute geometry.
     
  3. The 3-flutes allow for an excellent balance between versatility and chip evacuation which enables high feed machining.
     
  4. The inclusion of a small-diameter bottom cutting edge also enables use when V-grooving.
