What are the advantages and disadvantages of tungsten steel milling cutter

Tungsten steel milling cutter is a commonly used milling tool, its advantages and disadvantages are as follows:

Tungsten steel milling cutter Advantages:

1. High hardness: The hardness of tungsten steel milling cutter is very high, which can be used for processing harder workpieces, and the wear resistance is also good.

2. High temperature resistance: Because the melting point of tungsten steel is very high, tungsten steel milling cutter can withstand high temperature, not easy to deformation, ablation or deterioration.

3. Long life: Due to its high hardness and wear resistance, tungsten steel milling cutter is not easy to wear during use, and has a long life.

4. Good cutting performance: the cutting Angle and cutting bite Angle of tungsten steel milling cutter are small, the cutting performance is good, and the machining surface is high in smoothness.

5. Wide range of application: Tungsten steel milling cutter is suitable for processing a variety of metal and non-metal materials, such as steel, copper, aluminum, plastic and wood.

Tungsten steel milling cutter disadvantages:

1. Expensive: Because tungsten steel milling cutter has the advantages of high hardness and long life, its price is relatively high, and it is not suitable for some small businesses or individuals.

2. Difficult to process and maintain: due to the high hardness of tungsten steel, the processing difficulty of tungsten steel milling cutter is also larger, and it also requires special grinding, coating and cooling methods for maintenance.

3. Easy to break: If the tungsten steel milling cutter hits hard objects or the load is too large during use, it is easy to break, which not only affects the processing quality, but also easily causes safety accidents.

4, the need for high-end equipment support: In order to play the advantages of tungsten steel milling cutter, the need for high-end processing equipment and perfect cutting parameters to support, for some small enterprises or individuals can not afford.

5. Not suitable for low-speed processing: due to the high hardness of tungsten steel milling cutter, it is not suitable for low-speed processing, which is easy to bring a lot of load to the machine tool.

In short, tungsten steel milling cutter has many advantages, but there are also many disadvantages, so in the selection of tools need to be considered according to the processing needs and actual conditions, in order to choose the most suitable for their own tools.
