Fräsvverktyg

Fräsvverktyg, commonly translated as milling tools or milling cutters, are rotary cutting tools used in milling machines to shape metal, plastic, wood, and other materials. They feature one or more cutting edges that remove material as the tool rotates and moves through the workpiece. The design of a fräsvverktyg depends on the specific machining operation, material being cut, and desired finish.

Common types of fräsvverktyg include end mills, which are used for creating slots, pockets, and contours. Face mills are used for producing flat surfaces. Shell mills are similar to face mills but are designed to be mounted on an arbor. Ball nose mills are used for creating rounded profiles and 3D shapes. T-slot cutters are used for milling T-shaped slots.

Fräsvverktyg are typically made from high-speed steel (HSS), carbide, or diamond-coated materials, offering different levels of hardness, wear resistance, and heat tolerance. The geometry of the cutting edges, flute design, and coatings play crucial roles in performance, chip evacuation, and tool life. Proper selection and maintenance of fräsvverktyg are essential for achieving accurate and efficient machining results.
