Technical Breakdown of the Code
Q: Designates the specific proprietary high-feed cutter series or product line, optimized for low entry angles and high chip thinning effects.
50.0R: Indicates a 50 mm (1.97") nominal cutting diameter for the tool body.
.H: Refers to a hardened heavy-duty tool body or holder configuration (often featuring through-coolant or specific arbor mounting).
INS-LNMX 06: Specifies the required seat geometry built to accept LNMX 06 size indexable inserts.
PT-H023: A manufacturer-specific project, pitch spacing, or pocket hardware code (often correlating with high-feed face mills designed by brands like Korloy or similar high-feed tooling systems). [1, 2]
Properties of the LNMX 06 Insert System
The inserts paired with this cutter body have distinct attributes:
Double-Sided Design: LNMX 06 inserts are negative, rectangular, and double-sided, yielding 4 highly economical cutting edges per insert.
High-Feed Geometry: Features a low lead angle (typically around 15° to 20°), which directs cutting forces upward into the machine spindle. This layout allows you to run extremely high table feed rates (\(f_{z}\)) at a shallow axial depth of cut (\(a_p \leq 1.0\text{ mm}\)).
