Heavy-Duty Facing
It is hard to machine a large part without face milling
operations. Rough and fine machining of free and
bounded planes and preparing datum surfaces
require various indexable face mills. ISCAR’s
standard face mills possess nominal diameters up
to 315 mm (12 in), while special tailor-made tools
might feature higher values. Significant removal of
machining stock by milling is primarily an issue for
the production of large parts from steel and cast iron
and, slightly less, from titanium and aluminum.
