Seco 00050756 Indexable Copy Face Mill 3 Inch

Product Description

The SECO 00050756 is an indexable copy face mill designed for helical interpolation and ramping operations on CNC machining centers. Built to the R220.97 cutter style, it accepts four VPGX2206E-E10 series inserts secured by screw clamping. The maximum cutting diameter is 3.0 inches (76.20 mm), the maximum depth of cut is 0.394 inches, and through-coolant delivery is standard. Right-hand cutting direction and a 5-degree maximum ramping angle make it suited for contour milling and cavity work where tool path flexibility is required. Licensed machinists and CNC operators working in job shop or production environments are the primary users of this tooling.

This face mill is configured for arbor mounting with a 1.0-inch arbor hole diameter and a 0.380-inch keyway width. It is applied in ferrous and non-ferrous milling operations where copy milling, pocket ramping, or helical entry paths are programmed. The four-insert configuration balances metal removal rate with machine spindle load, making it practical for mid-size vertical machining centers and horizontal mills running through-coolant programs.

Key Features

Compatibility

Compatible insert grades include VPGX 220631EN-E10 and VPGX 220631FN-E06. The insert inscribed circle is 22.00 mm. Arbor mounting requires a 1.0-inch bore with a 0.380-inch keyway.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified machinists following the machine tool builder's spindle and arbor mounting procedures. Power down and lock out the machining center before mounting or removing the cutter body. Verify insert seating and screw torque using the insert manufacturer's recommended tooling before running the spindle. Confirm through-coolant passages are clear and unobstructed prior to operation.
