New Solutions for the Die and Mold Industry

Why Long-Reach?
In many situations in the die and mold industry, there is a need to machine deeper than the length capabilties of the standard endmill range. With the long HELI2000 cutters the tools may be used in a collet chuck and set to the length required by postioning in the chuck, or in the case of Weldon shank the cutter can be cut to size to suit the operation.

Why Reduced Shank Diameter?
Many applications require machining along a high vertical wall or pocket.
By reducing the shank diameter by one millimeter, a clearance is created between the machined wall and the tool shank. This has major advantages for the user where interference of the tool shank and the machined surface may occur.

Two Endmill Options:

• Long Shank
• Reduced Shank Diameter
• The HM90 range of endmills (HELI2000) is now available in longer lengths for the die and mold industry and also with reduced shank diameter for machining deep vertical walls.

Tool Advantages:

• Increased life of the tool body.
• High 90o shoulder accuracy.
• Large choice of chipformers is available using HELIMILL inserts
• APKT 1003 and ADKT1505 inserts may be mounted on these HELI2000 cutters.Long reach for deep cavities
• Length can be set by user
• No interference of the tool shank with the side wall of the workpiece
• High accuracy of HELI2000 designUtilizes the improved cutter body life of HELI2000
• Tool are available in a diameter range of 16 to 40 mm (.38 to 1.50")
  in a variety of configurations
