Face milling cutter, also known as disc milling cutter, is used for machining planes on vertical milling machines, face milling machines or gantry milling machines, and there are cutter teeth on the end face and circumference, and there are also coarse teeth and fine teeth. There are three types of structures: integral type, tooth type and indexable type.
Face milling cutters are divided into two categories, one is to fix the carbide insert on the teeth by brazing, and then install the teeth on the milling cutter body, which is called the toothed face milling cutter;
The second type is to install the carbide insert directly on the milling cutter body, and then fix it with screws, etc., which is called indexable machine clamp milling cutter. The face milling cutter has two front angles, axis front angle and radial front angle, and the direction of the two front angles is selected according to the material and cutting conditions of the object to be machined, that is, positive +, negative -, or zero.
