Is There Any Difference between Cemented Alloy Milling Cutter and Carbide Milling Cutter?

I believe everyone knows that potato is also called white potato, and the cemented alloy milling cutter here is also called carbide milling cutters.

In the machinery industry, much of the time the same product can be called differently, which may cause unnecessary troubles. For example, cemented alloy milling cutter is also called carbide milling cutter. Many people mistakenly believe that they are milling cutters made of two materials; In fact, it is not. Many people are brought into this misunderstanding because of their different names; In fact, carbide milling cutters and cemented alloy milling cutters are milling cutters made of the same material.

The use of cemented alloy milling cutter: The cemented alloy milling cutter is generally used in the CNC machining center and CNC engraving machine. It can also be installed on an ordinary milling machine to process some relatively hard and less complex heat-treated materials.

1. Cemented alloy cylindrical milling cutter: It is used for the processing planes on horizontal milling machines. The cutter teeth are distributed on the circumference of the milling cutter. According to the tooth shape, it is divided into straight teeth and spiral teeth types. According to the number of teeth, there are two types: coarse teeth and fine teeth. The helical coarse-tooth milling cutter has a small number of teeth, high tooth strength and large chip holding space, which is suitable for rough machining; Fine-tooth milling cutters are suitable for finish machining.

2. Cemented alloy face milling cutter: It is used for the processing planes on vertical milling machine, face milling machine or planer type milling machine. There are cutter teeth on the end surface and circumference, as well as coarse and fine teeth types. Its structure has three types: Integral type, inserted tooth type and indexable type.
