Indexable inserts - Import export

LMT Tools has developed the CopyMax family, specially for the die and mold making industry The latest addition to the family is the one-sided indexable insert CopyMax1. It is an alternative for the reliable CopyMax2 with a two-sided indexable insert. opyMax1 and CopyMax2 prove their advantages above the competition during the roughing and the semi-finishing processes. Both tools are manufactured using the manufacturing process HQS (High Quality Sintering), which is registered for patent approval. For the first time, HQS allows for pressing and sintering a ball nose copy insert complete, resulting in precision sintered cutting edges. In addition to introducing the new indexable insert CopyMax1, LMT Tools has developed new shanks for the CopyMax. A cylindrical steel shank version is available in two different lengths, and the cylindrical bolt-on milling cutter are both new to the program. Both milling systems are designed with internal coolant supply.

The milling cutters used during roughing in die and mold making have to continuously withstand high levels of stress otherwise process reliability and quality cannot be guaranteed. That is why the CopyMax® product family by LMT Kieninger has been specially designed to handle these extreme conditions. The patent-pending HQS (High Quality Sintering) production process and Nanomold Gold high-performance coating ensure high endurance during roughing and semi-finishing. The double-sided CopyMax®2 indexable insert has already convinced many customers with its up to fourfold increase in service life. The single-sided CopyMax®1 insert is now also available. Users can therefore select the appropriate model depending on to the requirements of the respective component. This definitely increases tool life and process reliability while simultaneous reducing handling.

The coating of the newly developed CopyMax®2 insert from LMT Kieninger is Nanomold Gold, which is already an indication of top performance in mold and die making. The copy milling insert itself has a new construction design. It has improved cutting and material properties as well as a fully functional second cutting edge. When the first cutting edge is worn, the insert can be turned over and re-used with the same long tool life. Benefits: Identical geometry to the highly efficient WPR-AR copy milling insert. - The stable cutting edge and proven Nanomold Gold coating double the service life per cutting edge - 4 times higher tool life possible by using the 2nd cutting edge. - Highly economic solution for more than 70 % of your applications in forming technology, energy technology and mechanical engineering.

Highly versatile: The MultiFace H45 PRO4 and P45 PRO8 face-milling cutters enable high material removal rates even on lower performance machines. This is achieved with the highly positive cutting edge geometry of the MultiFace H45 PRO4, which has four cutting edges per indexable insert, as well as the positive cutting edge geometry of the MultiFace P45 PRO8 with its eight cutting edges. The easy cutting cutters can therefore be used for many different applications.

High feed and short machining times are the advantages of the LMT Fette MultiEdge 2Feed mini in a nutshell. High removal rates are achieved especially when machining hardened or high-tensile materials, even with large projection lengths. These results are delivered by the proven high-feed geometry of the 9 mm small indexable inserts, their positive rake angle, the new LCK10M cutting material with high carbide content and the TiAlN-based high-performance coating. The machining of high-tensile steels up to 63 HRC and chilled cast iron up to 67 HRC presents no problem. The machining time for one type of tempered steel was almost half that of a competitor tool.

Carbideline consists of CarbideLine-S solid carbide tools, CarbideLine-H hybrid tools and multi-part carbide tooling with CarbideLine-I indexable carbide tools. All CarbideLine tools excel through maximum productivity in their specific fields of application. CarbideLine-H tools are a new addition to the product range. They cover the module range 5 to 12 and are the 1st. choice for rough machining and finishing large lot sizes, where the tools costs using solid carbide milling cutters are too high and the gear cutting quality is too low using indexable inserts. CarbideLine-H tools are also highly suitable for machining high-strength materials up to 1,400 N/mm2 and enable a gear quality up to quality grade AAA. Its preferred area of application is for gears for commercial vehicles, general mechanical engineering and energy technology. In one specific application it was possible to reduce the gearing costs per wheel by 20% with the CarbideLine-H compared with an indexable insert system.
