Sandvik Coromant's CoroMill 490 Provides Higher Performance and Flexibility


March 3, 2008

Fair Lawn, New Jersey, March 3, 2008 - Sandvik Coromant has announced the release of the CoroMill 490. The first in a new family of versatile shoulder-milling tools, the CoroMill 490 offers cost reductions of up to 25% for face and shoulder milling operations in small to medium batch sizes.

The CoroMill 490 offers lower tool costs, reduced inventories, greater flexibility, higher precision and better tolerances. By using four-edge inserts with outstanding geometry design and new grades, the CoroMill 490 requires less cutting force. This results in a smoother profile and reduces the amount of machining time spent on finishing.

To minimize tooling inventories and operational expenses, the CoroMill 490 was designed to excel in a wide variety of milling operations. The tool can be used for contouring and edging, semi- and finish-boring with cylindrical or helical interpolation and slot milling. By providing high performance across a spectrum of milling applications, the CoroMill 490 can replace expensive stocks of specialized tools and simplifies production control.

For applications using near net shape precision forgings and castings, where reduced depths of cut and less final machining are required, the CoroMill 490 provides exceptional benefits. In these situations, the high levels of precision offered by the tool can allow for a finished product in just one pass.

The CoroMill 490 maximizes the potential of Sandvik Coromant's New Insert Generation Milling Grades. Combined with unique geometries, these new grades machine high quality component in a productive, dependable and predictable way, while holding tight tolerances. Unique features of the inserts include a new geometry of the parallel land, production of very thin chips, four main cutting edges and improved predictability. Additionally, the insert geometry and new grades make the CoroMill 490 the first cutter with a true 90-degree cut without sharp steps or mismatches.

The CoroMill 490 is available in diameters ranging from 1" to 3" for Arbor, Coromant Capto, cylindrical and Weldon shanks. Offered with L, M and H pitches, the new tool is offered in both metric and inch measurements.
