Cutting Tool Engineering - July 2003 Click the magazine cover to read the Productive Times column by Bill Kenedy, Contributing Editor entitled 'Die hard tools'. DatumPoint Introduces the RADICATOR, An Inserted Carbide Back Draft Style Milling Cutter TROY, MICHIGAN – Datum Point Tool, Incorporated of Troy, Michigan, introduces the RadicatorTM, an inserted carbide back draft milling cutter. The patent-pending design of the new Radicator insert has moved the actual cutting edges closer to the center compared to competitive designs, allowing a much freer cut. The massive size of the insert promotes improved heat dissipation. Applications include semi-rough, semi-finish and profile milling, along with a variety of other uses. The 1" diameter tool holder is available in six-, eight-, ten- and twelve-inch lengths. Two types of inserts are offered including a double-sided version for profile work or tapered walls. A single-sided insert can be used for cutting straight walls. The new Radicator inserts are offered with corner radii of 1/32, 1/16, 3/32, 1/8, 5/32, 3/16, 7/32 and 1/4. All inserts - both TIALN coated or uncoated - are conveniently available off the shelf. Other diameters are anticipated for release in 2003. The Radicator features the latest micrograin technology to improve quality and increased tool life dramatically.
