“VariMill Xtreme will dominate the shop floor through productive output due to its versatile offering and ability to machine a broad range of materials in aggressive machining conditions” said a company spokesperson.

The product offering of the 4-flute solid carbide end mill is it is available in metric (57 sku) and inch (57 sku) standard diameters, straight and Weldon shanks and square-end, sharp edges, chamfers and corner radii designs are available.

Hanita is a solid end milling brand devoted to delivering high-performance tools for the most demanding operations and applications in the aerospace, energy and general engineering industries.

Key characteristics of VariMill Xtreme are its versatility whereby it is capable of machining a broad range of materials (steel, stainless steel, cast iron, super alloys), provides high-performance and tool life in a variety of operations including ramping, slotting, plunging, drilling, helical interpolation, dynamic milling, is productive with improved chip evacuation and increased edge/corner strength to reduce any risk of breakage while pushing the cutting parameters to the limit and exceeds expectations in aggressive cutting parameters.

Sandvik Coromant has introduced CoroMill 176, an indexable full profile carbide insert hob for gear milling. The company claims that this solution can reduce cutting time by a half and more than double tool life compared to traditional high speed steel cutters.

After the iconic VariMill I design, Widia Hanita are pleased to present the recently released VariMill Xtreme, the next generation of versatile high-performance end mills.

Target markets include the aerospace and energy industries as well as a host of general engineering industries.
