Rohit Cutting Tools India manufactures Solid Carbide TSlot cutters. These T-Slot cutters comes with following features: Features: - Carbide Material up to diameter of 25mm & Overall length upto 250mm is manufactured on request. T-slot cutters: A T-shaped milling cutter that machines a portion of a T-shaped slot into a workpiece. T-slot cutters often resemble a toothed disk mounted on a narrow arm. T-slotting: A milling operation that uses a T-shaped milling cutter to cut a channel shaped like an inverted T into a workpiece. T-slotting is often used to machine worktables. Up Cut Milling In up cut milling, the cutter rotates in a direction opposite to the table feed as illustrated in figure 14. It is conventionally used in most milling operations because the backlash between the leadscrew and the nut of the machine table can be eliminated. Up Cut Milling b. Down Cut Milling.

Days/Hours:Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday, 8 a.m. – 5 p.m.

1. 3 Manual Milling Machines with digital read outs. Hurco; Tri Onics; Sharp; Small Computer Numerical Control Milling Machine (Can be programmed to cut to cut aluminum, steel, copper, brass, wood, plastic. Does not cut concrete.) Haas VF-2, Milling Machining Center (holds 20 different tools and changes cutters/drills).
2. Key slot milling – roughing of full slot Side milling – finishing all around the slot, using up-milling to create true square corners The radial depth of cut should be kept low in finishing operations to avoid deflection of the cutter, which is a major cause of bad surface finish and/or deviation from a true 90° shoulder.
