A very popular helix angle, especially for general cutting metal materials, is 30#176;. For finishing end mills, it is common to see more tight spiral, with helix angles 45#176; or 60#176;. Straight flute end mills (helix angle 0#176;) are used in special applications, like milling plastics or composites of epoxy and glass.
#0183;#32;Our programmer came to me this morning asking what the best angle of flute to use on a 3quot; x 9quot; block of hard rubber that is 2quot; thick. Honestly, tooling for rubber pieces is completely foreign to me, and after searching the web for a bit, I''ve been unable to find the information that I''m looking for.

The helix angle is the angle that an end millamp;apos;s helical cutting edge makes with the plane of its centreline. On the periphery, the helix angle is the axial rake angle of the peripheral cutting edges. A higher helix angle means a larger rake angle, thereby increasing sharpness to the tool.
The endmill tool includes a shank for engaging the endmill tool to a rotating device and a point for plunging the tool into the workpiece. The endmill tool further includes a main body portion located intermediate the shank and the point. A primary flute is formed on the main body portion along a

#0183;#32;End mills (45 RHH tool, 25 RHH tool, 5 RHH tool, 25 LHH and 45 LHH tool). remainder have left hand helix angles of 25 and 45 In order to simplify the description of the tools, the one with a right hand helix angle of 45for example, is simply coded as 45 RHH and a tool with a left hand helix angle of 45is coded as 45 LHH.
Helix Angle The angle formed by a line tangent to the helix and a plane through the axis of the cutter or the cutting edge angle which a helical cutting edge often seen on Carbide end mills. Weldon Shank Industry name for a specific type of shank with a drive and location flat. The flat on the cutter provides positive ( nonslip
#0183;#32;If you label cells as Pitch and Diam in Excel, the formula I came up with is. =360*atan (Pitch/ (pi ()*Diam))/ (2*pi ()) If you have a 1 inch diameter, and a pitch of about, you get a helix angle of #186;. If I''ve left out a factor of 2 or something, I''m sure I will be corrected.
On an end mill with a 30 degree helix angle, 25 % of the force is axial and 75 % radial. On a 45 deg. helix angle, the forces are divided equally, 50 % radial and 50 % axial. High helix cutters have an helix angle of 60 deg. At a higher helix angle the radial forces are lower and cutting is smoother, vibrations lower. Surface finish and chip evacuation are better. The cutter is however weaker, cannot take heavy

Hihelix end mills have several advantages inherited with their design. Simple math says that a an endmill with 45 degree helix angle directs 50% of the cutting force downward versus 25% for a 30 degree end mill. Main advantages are: Higher rake angle directs more of a cutting force downward.
#0183;#32;Slower Feed Rate The increased radial force of a slow helix end mill requires running the end mill at a slower feed rate. High Helix Tool gt;40#176; Benefits. Lower Radial Force The tool will run quieter and smoother due to better shearing action, and allow for less deflection and more stability in thin wall applications. Efficient Chip Evacuation As the helix angle increases, the length of cutting edge
Longflute, 4flute, End Mills (Helix Angle 35) has diverse dimensions to meet customers''s requirements. If you are interested in our Square End Mills, please don''t hesitate to contact Wey Juan Square End Mills manufacturer.
The helix angle As the helix angle is increased, the sharpness improves, when the helix angle is decreased, deflection from the machined surface is reduced. End mills with a large helix angle are used when machining materials with low cutting resistance such as aluminium alloy or when machining materials that require a sharp geometry such as hardened steel and difficulttocut materials.

#0183;#32;The tradeoff however, is that the extra feedpertooth performance means more downthrust, especially as the helix angle increases. For that reason, Seco/Niagara suggested that any tool 3/8quot; or larger needed to be run in a sidelock/Weldon toolholder,
