Flying in the face of convention Sumitomo set out to produce a sharp edged, wear and heat resistant milling programme which would cost effectively revolutionise metal removal rates. Now a standard feature of its WEM style endmills,shellmills, and facemills, the Wavemill incorporates super thick high rake inserts, to maximise tool rigidity and significantly reduce cutting forces resulting in tnhe smooth cutting of a variety of workpiece materials at impressive feed rates.
