The carbide cutting tip, brazed to a specially engineered steel shank, is designed for precise groove cutting in composite building materials. This tool excels at routing V-shaped grooves, removing the aluminum cover and part of the polyethylene core, allowing the remaining material to be easily folded or creased by hand. High-grade Amana carbide ensures exceptional tool longevity, especially compared to standard carbide-tipped tools.
Composite Material Panels—such as TCM, CCM, and ACM—are widely used for diverse cladding applications, including the exteriors and interiors of office buildings, hospitals, convention centers, airports, and hotels. The material’s durability makes it an ideal choice for buildings, signage, and displays.
This tool is optimized for cutting and scoring various aluminum sandwich materials, including:
- Acetate
- Acrylonitrile-Butadiene-Styrene (ABS)
- Aluminum, Brass, Bronze, Clay, Zinc & Wood Composite Panels
- Aluminum 5052
- Aluminum Composite Materials (ACM)
- Aluminum Composite Panel (ACP)*
- ALPOLIC® Copper Composite Material (CCM)
- Alucobond®
- Alupanel®
- Bakelite
- Dibond®
- Durabond**
- e-panel™
- Etalbond®
- Lexan™
- Nylon
- PE and FR Cores
- Phenolics
- Plastic/Acrylic
- Plexiglas®
- PVC
- Stainless Steel Composite Material (SCM)
- Titanium Composite Material (TCM)
- Wood
*Aluminum Composite Panel (ACP) is a type of ACM flat panel that includes two thin aluminum sheets bonded to a non-aluminum core, commonly used for cladding, insulation, and signage.
**Durabond consists of a polyethylene core with a 0.3mm aluminum sheet on each side, pre-finished and requiring no additional decoration.
Benefits of Zirconium Nitride (ZrN) Coating
- Provides a harder, tougher cutting edge for prolonged tool life, minimizing material build-up in flutes during cutting
- Allows for faster operation speeds compared to uncoated tools
- Optimized flute geometry and low Total Indicated Runout (TIR) ensure clean cuts, reducing sanding needs and minimizing chatter under high chip loads (especially with low TIR spindles)
- High flute volume enables increased feed rates and chip loads
- High aspect ratio allows for deep-reach, single-pass cutting
- Optimized for cutting sign foam, sign board, hardwoods, thermoplastics, and phenolic composites
