Positive diamond inserts

A highly positive insert geometry ensures a particularly smooth cut, minimising the stress exerted on the workpiece and the tool. As a result, long cutter life and virtually burr-free machining are ensured, particularly when processing long-chipping materials.

The wide finishing radius creates a high standard of surface quality, even at elevated feed rates. The coolant supply reliably ensures targeted cooling of the cutting edges as well as safe removal of chips from the working zone.

Using a special insert geometry for machining fibre-reinforced plastics combined with the hardness and wear resistance of the CVD thick film diamond coating, high levels of cutting performance are achieved. Horn's tried and tested diamond substrates guarantee that the cutting edges, produced using state-of-the-art laser technology, work efficiently.

These attributes, together with the exceptional rigidity of the head and the shank into which it is
screwed, both of which are made of quenched and tempered steel and TiN coated, combine to make the benefits of the cutting system a reality.

End mills in the DA32 system are available in diameters from 20mm to 63mm and incorporate between two and six inserts.
