Cutting 240º Ball Nose Milling Cutters with Three Effective Flutes
The lollipop-shaped ball nose cutters feature 240° spherical cutting edges and are available in the following tool configurations:
BLP Endmills – Endmills in the diameter range of 16 to 50 mm
BLP-M - Milling heads in the diameter range of 16 to 40 mm with FLEXFIT adaptation
BLP-Shell Mills - Arbor-type cutter in 50 mm diameter
The BLP- shell mill was designed to be mounted on face mill adapters with a 22 mm adaptation. A special screw, SR M10X20-10600, is supplied with the cutter.
This screw was designed to be used instead of the standard cutter’s frontal clamping screw. It serves as a retaining knob which pushes the cutter onto the adapter face by means of a screw situated on the cutter’s upper periphery.
