CUTTERS
Profile-sharpened
milling cutters are
sharpened by
grinding a narrow
land, mainly on the
tooth flanks.
The advantages of
these cutters are
their longer life.
(a) Trapezoidal
(b) Parabolic
Straight-flute plain
milling cutters are
very seldom used at
the present time
because of their
non-uniform cutting
action.
Only cutters of
narrow width, such
as side milling
cutters, may have
straight teeth.

Denoting the
diameter of the
mounting hole by d.
the thickness of the
body by m and the
height of the tooth
by H the cutter
diameter can be
calculated by the
formula
D=d+2m+2H
z = m.D
Fine-tooth plain
milling cutters are
commonly used for
finishing and semifinishing.
They are unsuited
for roughing since
the tooth pitch is
small and chip
space is inadequate.
These cutters
have a helix angle
=30 to 35;
They have from
10 to 12 teeth.
This is done by
making
projections and
recesses at the
end faces of the
mating cutters.
The projections
of one cutter
enter the
recesses of the
other.
In comparison with
high-speed steel
cutters the use of
cutters with brazed
helical tips of
cemented carbide
enables the output
to be increased by
three to five times
and cutter life is
enhanced from two
to five times.
Body of the
cutter, made of
structural steel,
has blade slots
tapered to an
angle of 5.
The blades are
driven into the
slots where they
are held by
friction.
After sharpening
the cutters
several times the
blades can be
raised by one
serration in the
slots to restore
the initial
diameter of the
cutter.
As a matter of
fact, if a blade
with only a single
5o taper is set
over one
serration it will
occupy position //
and its overhang
from the body will
not be changed.
As the workpiece
(cutter being
relieved) rotates
uniformly, the
relieving tool
advances uniformly
toward its centre.
The amount of relief,
or relief value,
characterizes the
advance of the
relieving tool.
If we consider a
portion of AB of the
cutter profile to the
cutter axis, its relief
angle will be constant
and equal to
K.z
= arctan ------.Dc
Since K, Dc and z dont
vary
The portion BC is
inclined at an angle .
The relief angle
measured in a plane
perpendicular to the
cutter axis will vary
along this portion
because diameter Dc
gradually decreases to
Ds.
Since Dc > Ds,the relief
angle at point C will be
larger than at point B.
Angular relieving
In angular
relieving, the
relieving tool
travels, not
perpendicular
to the cutter
axis, but at
some angle to
it.
In triangle D1CD,
side K1 represents
the displacement of
point D in a plane
perpendicular to the
cutter axis, and side
K2 is the
displacement in a
plane parallel to the
axis.
K2
tan = ---K1
Ray IV is the
beginning of tool
retraction, and
Ray V is the end of
tool retraction and
the beginning of the
relieving motion for
the next tooth.
