“CoroMill Plura ball nose for ISO S is a new addition to our optimized assortment,” says Liam Haglington, product manager for solid carbide end milling tools at Sandvik Coromant. “This release introduces two new product geometries optimized for titanium and HRSA workpiece materials, respectively. The products have been developed for profiling—specifically semifinishing and finishing applications—in operations such as blisk and blade machining.”
Featuring up to six flutes, CoroMill Plura ball nose allows for higher feed rates without compromising the surface quality, meaning reduced machining times and a lower cost per part. While primarily designed for aerospace engine blisk machining, the versatile tools excel in many other application areas.
“These tools are optimized for profiling applications in HRSA and titanium alloys, giving their best performance when machining blades and forged structural components,” says Markus Groppe, global product and digital application manager for solid carbide end milling tools at Sandvik Coromant. “However, they are also a solid choice for application areas outside of the aerospace segment, such as the medical and automotive sectors. Operations like hip joint and turbocharger machining are prime examples where CoroMill Plura ball nose truly excels. Additionally, with secondary application areas of hardened steel for the HRSA assortment, and stainless steel for the titanium assortment, the six flute tools ensure the highest productivity and tool life for all types of die and mold applications.”
A wide selection of tools
“In addition to the standard assortment, we are also introducing elaborate customized solutions with a wide range of functionalities that cater to diverse customer demands,” says Sathish D, global product manager for customized solid carbide end milling tools at Sandvik Coromant. “Should the user still find that something is missing, our advanced engineered offering has got it covered.”
