High-Precision Single Flute Cutter for Acrylic and Plastic
Machining
AMG single flute cutter is a high-performance tool engineered for
efficient cutting and precision machining. It is widely used in
fine processing applications involving plastics, non-ferrous
metals, acrylic sheets, and composite materials. With a simple
structure and sharp cutting edge, it offers excellent chip
evacuation and superior surface finish, making it ideal for
scenarios that demand high surface quality and dimensional
accuracy.
Manufactured from high quality ultra-fine grain carbide material, the AMG single flute cutter is
produced using advanced grinding and edge honing techniques. Its
unique single flute design reduces cutting resistance, ensures
smooth finishes, and reduce burr formation. It is particularly
effective in CNC engraving, high-speed cutting, and thin-wall
material processing.
Applications:
Plastic mold machining
Acrylic and PVC sheet cutting
Thin-walled aluminum alloy milling
Precision contour machining of small parts
Specifications (Example Table):
| Tool Diameter (D) | Flute Length (L1) | Shank Diameter (D2) | Overall Length (L2) | Material |
|---|
| 3.175mm | 12mm | 3.175mm | 38mm | Carbide (HM) |
| 6mm | 20mm | 6mm | 50mm | Carbide (HM) |
| 8mm | 25mm | 8mm | 60mm | Carbide (HM) |
Working Principle:
The AMG single flute cutter operates at high spindle speeds. The
single-edge design reduces the tool-material contact area, fast
heat dissipation and reducing overall cutting load. This ensures
smooth and efficient cutting process, especially for soft and
transparent materials.
Advantages:
Ultra-sharp edge ensures clean, glossy cuts
Reduces melting or edge burning during processing
Efficient chip removal enables high-speed operations
Excellent wear resistance and extended tool life
Available in various sizes with support for customer specifications
