Original Press Release:

Walter Introduces the M4791 Routing Milling Cutter, the Latest Addition to Its Versatile M4000 Line

New inch-size cutter is capable of plunging in solid material and producing a true flat bottom

Waukesha, WI—Walter has expanded its cost-effective, flexible M4000 milling cutter system with the addition of the new M4791 routing cutter. Capable of plunging in solid material and producing a true flat bottom, the new routing cutters have an application in both lathes and machining centers.

The idea behind the M4000 milling program is that the same indexable insert can be used for all milling cutters in the Walter M4000 family (inserts available in TTS and TTG). The new M4791 tools are offered in diameters of 0.75 in., 1.00 in., 1.25 in. and 1.50 in. with Weldon shanks for secure clamping. A variety of insert are available with insert geometries of A57, D51, D57, F57 and G88 so the exact geometry can be matched to the demands of the machining application.

The M4791, along with the entire M4000 milling cutter family, was designed around efficiency and economy. Efficiency is realized by minimizing cycle time, power consumption and stocking complexity. Economic benefits come from long tool life provided by superior insert grades such as Tiger∙tec® Gold and the utilization of a system insert for the entire program, which reduces inventory purchasing requirements.
