Seco Tools‘ range of larger LP09 inserts is aimed for use with its High Feed 2 cutter bodies, enabling manufacturers to improve their productivity and process reliability.

The inserts, featuring higher insert-corner strength and dual cutting edges, are designed for a range of high-feed milling operations (face milling, helical interpolation, slotting, side milling, pocketing and plunging), and are particularly suited for machining ‘difficult’ materials used in the mould and die, aerospace, and oil and gas industries.

High Feed 2 cutter bodies feature stronger reinforced cores and more teeth per diameter enabling higher feed rates to be employed – resulting in faster material removal rates. Furthermore, during high-feed milling operations, the optimised flutes of the cutter bodies evacuate chips quickly and more efficiently.

The rectangular shape of the LP09 inserts combined with the closer-pitched cutter bodies help extend tool life beyond that achieved with square inserts. Cutter-body pockets ensure consistent and precise insert positioning/seating during indexing, while high-strength screw clamps hold inserts securely in place.

LP09 positive inserts are available in a full range of grades, including D12, MD15, M13, ME08 and E08. Seco Tools’ High Feed 2 cutter bodies range in size from 25mm to 100mm.
