TaeguTec Introduces Shooting Star

The impressive StarMill SED range of end mills from TaeguTec has now been expanded to offer a greater choice of diameters, lengths, radii, coatings and geometries to suit the ever changing demands of the marketplace.

Already a star performer on difficult to cut materials such as stainless steel, titanium, inconel and other high temperature alloys, the StarMill has been extended with the arrival of the SED4 UL range of 4-flute extra reach end mills. The new UL extension introduces end mills with 3, 4, 6, 8, 10 and 12mm diameter with an overall reach from 63 to 92mm depending upon the chosen diameter. With a flute length from 10 to 40mm, this addition to the SED line-up enables manufacturers to reach deep into small cavities and difficult to reach surfaces.

In addition to the SED4 UL line, TaeguTec has also introduced a complete line of SED4 UR end mills with a corner radius for enhanced tool life and machining performance. The new SED4 UL range is available in diameters from 2 to 16mm with each diameter offering the customer a selection of corner radii. Whilst the 4mm diameter tool offers users the choice of a 0.1, 0.2 or 0.5mm radius, the largest 16mm end mill is available with a 0.5, 1, 2 and 3mm corner radius. 

All ranges within the SED StarMill portfolio incorporate unequal flute spacing and a high-helix that combine to reduce harmonic effects and vibration during high-speed machining. Furthermore, the polished high-helix flutes improve chip evacuation whilst the dynamic new TT5515 grade coating prolongs tool life under the most challenging of machining parameters.
