Milling cutter system employs unique clamping design PDF Print E-mail
The ValMILL VFORCE milling cutter system from Valenite LLC, Madison Heights, MI employs Side Lock direct insert clamping design, a tool configuration ideal for high-density (larger number of inserts for any given cutter diameter) yet compacted insert mounting that presents more cutting teeth per revolution, and enables feed rates and material removal rates of up to three times the speeds of tools with traditional locking systems.

The Side Lock style mechanism design utilizes a single-screw with no extraneous parts required. It provides quick release of the insert to minimize indexing/changeout times, is easier to use than screw down type or wedge systems, and permits the use of a stronger, solid insert design.
