Why? The innovatived Double Octomill have inserts that are positioned in
the pockets by HSS pins. This makes indexing easy and secure. You simply can’t go wrong because the insert is correctly located by the HSS pins. What’s more, the HSS pins ensure an extremely long life for the pocket (65 HRC).
Features:
-
Same tool for roughing and finishing.
-
Cutter body gives long tool life
-
High performance insert
-
Five different geometries
Three different pitches
Tools in the Double Octomill range are divided into three different pitches: Normal, Normal+, and Close pitch, providing optimum productivity for different machines and materials.
For example, if the machine has high power capability, choose the close pitch cutter (cast iron). If the machine has limited power capability, choose normal or normal+ (all materials). On the normal and normal+ versions, the insert is locked in place by a centre lock mounting, with a strong screw. The close pitch version has wedge mounting using a new, stronger and self-orientating wedge. Both insert locking solutions gives you easy handling and maximum security during the cutting process.
DOUBLE OCTOMILL -05
But now we’ve gone one better and created Double Octomill 05. Intended for smaller jobs, Double Octomill 05 still has all the benefits of its big brother but is designed to be used in smaller machines.
Inserts for Double Octomill 05 are available in four geometries for a wide range of materials, from cast iron to more exotic materials.
