Mill for gray and ductile cast irons

Modern Machine Shop, Nov, 2006 by Matthew D. Danford

A 90-degree, double-negative milling cutter with positive cutting insert geometry, Sumitomo's SDP Spider mill is designed for high-productivity face milling of gray and ductile cast irons. Each insert consists of eight cutting edges. According to the company, a positive chipbreaker insert provides reduced cutting force and more productivity while extending tool life.

The cutter is available with an ACK100 CVD-coated grade for high speed milling applications and a ACK200 CVD-coated grade for general purpose milling. Both grades are available in 3", 4", 5" and 6" cutter bodies.
