New MC232 Perform line of solid carbide milling cutters from Walter are flexible and cost-effective

The new cutters have a corner radius for improved approaches, longer tool life, and greater edge stability.

Walter has introduced the MC232 Perform line of solid carbide milling cutters. These new milling cutters, the latest addition to Walter’s cost-effective Perform product range, feature a corner radius and reduced neck. Solid carbide milling cutters with corner radii allow improved approaches to individual component geometries. It also improves the tool life of the milling cutter, as the edge stability is increased. The reduced neck in turn makes the milling cutter more flexible, as it can be used with an even wider variety of cutting depths. MC232 Perform line, with diameter sizes ranging from 1/8 in. to ¾ in. and 2-20 mm metric,
can be used for all typical milling applications (shoulder, slotting, pocket milling, helical plunging and ramping) and are suitable for a variety of materials.

Users also benefit from other features of the Perform line, such as the
high level of cost efficiency for small and medium batch sizes. Application of
the MC232 Perform include steel, stainless and cast iron. The new milling cutters are of particular benefit to job shops and manufacturers that frequently changing orders or quantities.

The Perform lineup is one of three designations to Walter product technology—Perform, Advance, Supreme. Perform tools are products that provide an economical solution with focused importance on price. The Advance tools are products which are efficiently balanced between price and performance. The Supreme designation indicates the highest level of
technology and performance available.
