SECO ADDS LARGER INSERT SIZE TO T4-12 SQUARE SHOULDER, HELICAL MILLING CUTTERS www.engineeringnews.co.nz 45 S T O C K TA K E By adding larger insert sizes to its popular T4-12 line of square shoulder and helical milling cutters, Seco allows parts manufacturers to achieve increased depths of cut and higher metal removal rates when roughing and semi-finishing steel, cast iron and other workpiece materials. In continuing the value and stability of the T4-12 line, these larger-sized inserts all come with four curved cutting edges that lower the tooling cost per part and ensure smooth machining operations. These inserts tangentially mount in their cutter bodies for increased performance stability and easier access to their mounting screws. Moreover, this type of mounting directs the cutting forces to the thickest part of the inserts, which contributes to the higher metal removal rates of these products. Cutter diameters for the larger T4-12 helical inserts range from 50 mm to 100 mm, with corner radii up to 3.1 mm. The inserts also come in a wide selection of grades and geometries, including high positive rakes. Normal pitch cutters perform slotting and contouring operations, while close pitch versions only handle contouring, with a 30 percent radial width-of-cut capability in full axial depthof cut situations. www.secotools.com Russell Fraser Sales (RFS) has expanded their range of in-house ultrasonic thickness gauges. Due to the popular reception from their customers for their first in-house entry-level RFG-1000 gauge, RFS has increased their range to now include the more advanced RFG-2000, RFG- 4000 and RFG-4000DL models. The new RFG-2000 is designed to be used for measuring steel only and is so easy to use: simply turn the unit on, zero it and start taking measurements. The display is easy to read, even in poor lighting conditions with a bar graph giving an indication of the stability of the reading. Featuring lightweight metal housing the RFG-2000 can save you time and money by providing fast, repeatable and accurate results, even in harsh operating conditions. Typical applications include: corrosion and pitting, tube and pipe, tanks, boilers and disc brakes on mining trucks. www.rfsales.com.au ULTRASONIC THICKNESS GAUGES SUNON FANS At Hi-Q Components we stock a wide range of Sunon AC and DC fans. With lower power consumption and noise, higher torque, airflow and air pressure they are renowned for performance and reliability. Sunon fans are used in many areas of manufacturing and general electrical engineering including refrigeration, ventilation and computing. AC fans benefit from automatic motor wire wrapping technology ensuring stable performance for high air flows with low acoustic noise. The larger models have thermal cut-outs and starting capacitators. The advantage of Sunon DC fans is the specifically designed ‘Green Motor.’ Using single phase full wave winding this produces lower internal temperatures improving the life span of the motor while the torque is increased 80 percent due to thicker diameter wires. Available in 5, 12, 24v(DC) 115 and 230v(AC), vapo bearing, life lubricated ball bearing as well as oil impregnated sintered sleeve. With a range of speeds and sizes available to suit most applications. Contact Hi-Q Components for further information, Tel: 0800 766 709 or Email: sales@hiq.co.nz EXPANDED RANGE OF IN-HOUSE
