The core advantages of single flute milling cutters

1. Excellent chip removal performance
Large chip space: The single-edge design provides the largest chip groove, avoiding the chip clogging problem of multi-edge tools, and is particularly suitable for the processing of sticky materials (such as aluminum, copper, and plastics).

Reduce heat accumulation: The chips are quickly discharged, reducing the risk of thermal deformation of the workpiece and tool.

2. Low cutting resistance
Single-edge cutting: Only one cutting edge is involved in cutting, and the cutting force is 30%~50% lower than that of multi-edge tools. It is suitable for the processing of thin-walled parts and low-rigidity workpieces (such as sheet metal and thin-walled pipes).

Vibration suppression: Low cutting force reduces machine tool vibration and improves surface finish (up to Ra0.4μm).

3. High precision and finish
Edge finishing ability: The single-edge design can achieve a mirror effect through precise grinding, which is suitable for processing with high surface quality requirements such as precision molds and optical components.

No repeated cutting: Multi-edge tools may cause repeated cutting marks due to manufacturing errors, and single-edge tools completely avoid this problem.

4. Wide adaptability
Processing of special materials:

Soft metals (aluminum, copper): anti-stick knife, reduce burrs.

Non-metals (acrylic, wood): avoid material edge collapse.

Composite materials (carbon fiber): reduce the risk of delamination.

Complex shapes: suitable for fine operations such as engraving, narrow grooves, and corner cleaning.

5. Economy and flexibility
Low cost: simple structure, manufacturing cost is lower than multi-edge tools.

Easy to sharpen: single-edge is easier to sharpen manually, extending service life.
