High-Feed Mills: RHINO-FEED™

The ultra-aggressive geometry of our high-feed RHINO-FEED line takes advantage of chip thinning to allow feed rates up to 5x faster than normal! Use RHINO-FEED high-feed inserts for:

• Mold cavity and core roughing
• Roughing of complex part contours
• Slotting
• 2D contouring
• Pocketing
• Helical interpolation
• Face milling
• Step milling

How does RHINO-FEED work?

High-feed milling creates significant chip thinning due to an extreme lead angle. Feed rates must compensate for this to maximize productivity. The figure at left shows an example of this condition.

Adjusting feed rates to account for chip thinning creates cutting conditions that provide very high feeds (IPM), but at lighter depths of cut (DOC). See the specific operating instructions for each size of high-feed insert to get the most of your Dapra RHINO-FEED product!

High-Feed Cutter Bodies

• Through-hardened, extra-tough tool steel for optimum strength
• Surface hardened for extra wear and chip-welding resistance
• Machined after hardening for excellent runout
• Standard and long-reach bodies available

High-Feed Inserts

• Strong design allows high feed rates in all materials
• Positive clearance provides excellent ramping and helixing capabilities
• Multiple geometries for either smooth cutting or strong edge conditions
• Simple but effective grade variety provides strong performance in all materials
