MaxiMill – Slot-SNHX milling cutter

CERATIZIT’s UP2DATE catalogue is now available, showcasing the latest product developments and advancements for the cutting tool industry.

Designed to help customers optimize machining performance, extend tool life, and maximize production efficiency, this edition features tooling solutions tailored to meet intricate milling and micromachining operations. Included in the spring 2025 UP2DATE edition are the MaxiMill – Slot-SNHX milling cutter, the MaxiMill – Tangent milling cutter, and the WTX – Micropilot micro drill.

The MaxiMill – Slot-SNHX is a side and face milling cutter system that is designed for use in range of materials, including steel, cast iron, and aluminum. The tool delivers soft cuts while effectively avoiding interfering contours, making it an ideal solution for diverse milling applications.

It features trouble-free contours on the face side and sufficient axial freedom of movement that ensure smooth machining even in hard-to-reach areas. The system is equipped with an internal coolant supply up to a diameter of 200 mm, which minimizes chip jamming.

It is available in three models. These slip-on milling cutters offer diameter ranges from 80mm to 200mm each of which include internal coolant supply, and multiple sized cutting widths. The screw-in milling cutter also provides an internal coolant supply on diameters of 50mm, 63mm, and 80mm and cutting widths of 6mm and 8mm. The milling cutter with cylindrical shank and internal coolant supply is available to CERATIZIT customers in diameters of 50mm, 63mm, 80mm and 100mm as well as cutting widths of 6mm and 8mm.

The MaxiMill – Tangent is a new tangential indexable milling cutter designed for machining hard-to-reach steel or cast iron components. Engineered to deliver stable and soft-cutting machining, it provides a uniform chamfer profile over the entire length of the cutting edge for maximum stability within a single system.

It has indexable inserts optimized for machining ISO P and ISO K materials and features a maximum infeed depth of 8 mm for the -09 insert, while the larger model goes even further to 12 mm. This tool includes universal -M50 and -F50 chip breakers. There is an integrated face-cutting edge.

It is available in three mounting styles: shell mill, screw-in cutter, and straight shank. Cutter diameters range from 25mm to 125mm. The large and stable contact surfaces in the integrated carrier inserts carrier provide additional stability and reliability. Inserts can be rotated, turned, and replaced quickly and easily to prevent any drop-offs in efficiency during tool changes.

The WTX – Micropilot is a micro drill used for spot drilling small components with intricate geometries. With a special drill point angle of 160 degrees, the tool provides maximum positioning accuracy and prevents wandering while drilling to achieve extreme precision within a single run. Since it is designed to co-drill with the WTX – Micro, the usual mirroring required for drilling inclined and curved surfaces with an inclination up to 50 is no longer necessary.

It is coated in CERATIZIT’s Dragonskin for optimum chip clearance and extended tool life. It also has spiral internal cooling channels to ensure maximum flow of cooling lubricant for improved surface finish.
