According To The Different Structural Forms Of Milling Cutters, They Can Be Divided Into

1. Face milling cutter (also known as end milling cutter): The face milling cutter has cutting edges on both the circumferential surface and end face, and the end cutting edge is a secondary cutting edge. Face milling cutters are often made into sleeve type gear insert structures and blade machine clamp indexable structures. The cutting teeth are made of high-speed steel or hard alloy, and the cutting body is 40Cr. Drilling tools, including drills, reamers, taps, etc;
2. Mold milling cutter: Mold milling cutter is developed from end milling cutter and can be divided into three types: conical end milling cutter, cylindrical ball end milling cutter, and conical ball end milling cutter. Its shank has a straight shank, a flattened straight shank, and a Morse taper shank. Its structural feature is that the ball head or end face is covered with cutting edges, and the circumferential edge is connected to the arc of the ball head edge, which can be used for radial and axial feed. The working part of the milling cutter is made of high-speed steel or hard alloy.
3. Keyway milling cutter: used for milling keyways.
4. Forming milling cutter: The cutting edge is consistent with the shape of the surface to be machined.
