High Performance and Long Tool Life with New VariMill II(TM) End Mills from Hanita



LATROBE, PA - Where achieving higher metal-removal rates will save a shop time and money, or where one tool can efficiently replace multiple tools used for roughing, semi-finishing, slotting, and profiling, and still deliver outstanding results, the new VariMILL II(TM) family of solid-carbide end mills from Hanita deserve close consideration.

Hanita VariMILL II end mills are being called the next generation of high-performance vari-style end mills. They are especially effective in roughing and semi-finishing applications in stainless steels, high-temp alloys, nickel- and carbon-based alloys, and titanium.

Features include a unique design with five unequally spaced flutes, a patented flute form and end geometry, and AlTiN coating that enables extremely heavy cuts and exceptional tool life while virtually eliminating tool chatter. VariMILL II end mill geometries eliminate chatter and harmonics so well they can slot up to 1XD, and perform side milling operations up to 0.5D radial and 1.5xD axial.

The best way to see the superiority and versatility of this cutter is to "take more than just a linear pass during a test," says Steve Abrams, product manager, Kennametal. "Take heavy cuts, move through corners, take pocket cuts, or step-down processes. Use the cutter in a variety of ferrous materials, especially difficult-to-machine materials. Hanita VariMILL II will perform exceptionally well in all these applications."
