OptiMill®-Tro-Inox
Six-flute trochoidal milling cutter for milling in stainless steel

The specific kinematics of trochoidal milling makes it possible to positively influence the engagement
conditions due to a superimposition of the feed movement with a circular movement of the tool.
The specific kinematics of trochoidal milling make it possible to positively influence the engagement
conditions due to the superimposition of the feed movement with a circular movement of the tool.
The pressure angle is correspondingly low. This technological approach has the consequence that
a reduced chip width and cutting length lead to significantly reduced process forces.

1 Front geometry
– Five cutting edges
– Diameter 6.00 mm - 25.00 mm
– Cutting material HP826

2 Spiral angles
– Spiral angle 36°
– Unequal pitch
– Specially adapted spiral angles to the 1
length ratio of 3xD for a reduction of
of the pull-out forces

3 Carbide & Coating

– Tough tungsten carbide for highly
3
dynamic loads
– AlTiN based multilayer coating
for ideal thermal stability

Features Comparison of the maximum cutting volume up to the end of the tool life
– Preferred series in stock:
ø range: 4 mm to 20 mm
– On request
ø range: 14, 18 and 25 mm Nominal-O: 12.00 mm
ae = 0.5 mm
ap = 60 mm (5xD)
fz = 0,1 mm

– Number of cutting edges 6 hmax = 0,07 mm

– Unequal pitch
– Especially for trochoidal milling
– For cutting depths up to 5xD
