Cutting Tools


These are tools used to cut material in various machining processes such as milling, turning, drilling, and grinding.


They come in different types, including end mills, drills, taps, reamers, and turning tools

 Materials for cutting tools can range from high-speed steel (HSS) to carbide, ceramic, and cermet, depending on the material being worked on and the precision required.

typically involves listing the various types of tools you offer, their specifications, applications, and other relevant details. Below is a basic structure that you can use for a CNC cutting tools catalog, which includes the most common types of cutting tools used in CNC machining

End Mills


End mills are used for milling operations. They can be used to cut through materials like metals, plastics, and composites.


Applications:
Milling, drilling, and facing operations.


  • Single Flute End Mills: Ideal for softer materials and high-feed machining.
  • Four Flute End Mills: Suitable for hard materials and producing smooth finishes. 
  • Sizes: Available in diameters ranging from 0.5mm to 50mm, with various lengths.
  • Double Flute End Mills: Provide good balance between speed and strength, used for general machining.
  • Ball Nose End Mills: Used for 3D contouring, sculpting, and profiling. 
  • Materials: High-speed steel (HSS), carbide, coated carbide.

DRILLS


Drills are used for creating cylindrical holes in materials.


Applications:
Hole drilling, reaming, countersinking, and tapping.

  • Twist Drills: Standard drill bits used for a wide range of applications.
  • Center Drills: Designed for precision holes at the center of workpieces.
  • Materials: High-speed steel (HSS), carbide, cobalt, coated options.
  • Spot Drills: Used to create an initial hole for the drill bit to enter.
  • Carbide Drills: Used for high-speed, high-precision drilling in hard materials.
  • Sizes: Available in diameters ranging from 0.1mm to 20mm.

TAPS


Taps are cutting tools used for creating internal threads In Holes.


Applications:
Thread cutting in metals, plastics, and composites.

  • Straight Flute Taps: Ideal for tapping through holes, used in materials like aluminum and brass.
  • Forming Taps: Create threads without cutting, ideal for softer materials like aluminum.
  • Materials: High-speed steel (HSS), cobalt, carbide.
  • Spiral Flute Taps: Ideal for tapping blind holes, especially in materials like steel.
  • Sizes: Available in a wide range of thread sizes (UNC, UNF, Metric, etc.)

REAMERS


Reamers are used to smooth or finish holes to a precise size.


Applications:
Hole sizing, deburring, and finishing operations.

  • Tapered Reamers: Used for reaming holes that require a slight taper.
  • Carbide Reamers: Used for precision reaming of hard materials.
  • Sizes: Typically available in diameters ranging from 2mm to 25mm.
  • Adjustable Reamers: Used when precise adjustments to the hole size are needed.
  • Materials: High-speed steel (HSS), carbide, coated carbide.
