One cutter, many choices

A versatile new range of milling cutters and inserts form an important part of Dormer Pramet’s first product launch of 2017.

Expanding the company’s comprehensive range of milling cutters, the new addition adds an adaptable option to support a wide range of insert shapes and operations from roughing to finishing.

The new SOD05 cutter, developed under the Pramet brand, reduces tool change-over time and inventory costs with its universal pocket capable of carrying octagonal, round and square inserts.

It means that the user-friendly cutter, available in a wide range of diameters from 32 – 125 mm, can perform face milling, shoulder milling, slotting, plunging and ramping in steel, stainless steel, cast iron and non-ferrous materials.

To support the new cutter, Dormer Pramet has added to its range of octagonal (OD), round (RD) and square (SD) inserts. The OD insert has eight cutting edges and low cutting forces, promoting an economical option for face milling, while the RD inserts are suitable for high feed roughing, shallow profiling and ramping.
