Seco showcases Jabro end mills for composites

Troy, Michigan – Seco’s latest Jabro JPD and JC end mills offer fast, efficient cutting to part-processing applications involving carbon and glass-fiber composites and carbon and glass-fiber reinforced plastics. The products come in four new geometries.  

 

The JDP group that consists of the new 880 square end mill, 850 ball nose end mill, and 840 compression-type end mill features brazed polycrystalline diamond (PCD) plates. Main PCD-plated bodies include through-coolant channels for chip and dust evacuation. The JDP880 and JDP840 end mills are available in diameters that range from 6mm to 16mm, while the JDP850 covers diameters from 4mm to 16mm. Two PCD plate lengths – normal and long – are also available for the JDP880.

 

The JC group of solid-carbide end mills includes a new 875 solid-carbide router for superior surface finishes via a special edge treatment that prevents wear. An added diamond coating allows it to withstand the highly abrasive properties of composite materials. A special chip-splitting design offers clean cutting actions. Diameter ranges for the JC875 are from 3mm to 12mm, with 0.250" to 0.500" Imperial sizes also available.

 

The four geometries incorporate advanced designs to allow composite workpiece materials to remain undamaged during the machining process.
