New nesting cutter Z4+4 based on Fibonacci: Slim, swift and stable
LEUCO’s genuine Z4 Fibonacci nesting milling cutter sets new standards in terms of productivity, efficiency and quality.
This efficient configuration based on the Fibonacci principle enables more teeth to be arranged on a tool while also making the base body more stable, delivering advantages across all versions.
LEUCO's new Fibonacci Z4+4 shank-type cutter is a highlight on the nesting machining scene. The manufacturer employs a new kind of construction design to accommodate four rows of diamond-tipped cutters within a diameter of just twelve millimeters, including appropriate gullets. This enables the milling cutter to achieve high feed speeds and excellent cutting results while also remaining robust, even with its extended number of cutting edges, operating smoothly and also consuming less energy.
Another advantage of these small nesting cutters for milling is that they produce fewer offcuts, meaning that they make much better use of the material. With its new Z4+4 shank-type cutter, LEUCO now combines the benefits of minimum size with maximum cutting power – employing a remarkable efficient concept derived from mathematically definable structures from the natural world.
Genuine Z4+4: More teeth, faster tempo – as well as shatter-proof with low vibration
The LEUCO Fibonacci series of Z4+4 nesting milling cutters operate using four rows of cutters, each with several diamond-tipped blades – all accommodated within a diameter of just 12 millimeters. Since four blades are in operation continuously at every point on the workpiece, this tool has everything that defines a genuine Z4 milling cutter. It is the innovative design of this milling cutter that enables it to operate so robustly and smoothly. To achieve this, LEUCO employs the Fibonacci principle, based on highly functional shapes in the natural world. Which results in an optimum arrangement of blades on this narrow tool.
Because it has these additional blades and because they are arranged in such an efficient formation, this milling cutter is able to achieve what at present are the highest speeds during feed – a gain of as much as 25 percent compared to tools with three teeth. This enables the Z4+4 shank-type cutter with a 23 millimeter length of cut to achieve feed rates of 17 to 22 meters a minute when machining unpainted or coated particle boards, at speeds of 18,000 rpm. At a rotational speed of 24,000 rpm, that feed rate rises to 22 to 28 meters a minute.
LEUCO Fibonacci nesting range: Versatile and energy-efficient
In LEUCO's new Fibonacci nesting range, the Z4 milling cutter can also be paired with tools with diameters of 12 and 16 millimeters and ½'' with cutting widths of 23 and 28 millimeters. To satisfy individual requirements, LEUCO can also provide other cutting widths of 19 millimeters up to a length of 45 millimeters.
Even on versions with fewer teeth, a Fibonacci nesting milling cutter is worth choosing. Operation is remarkably sustainable, with a power saving of up to 15 percent compared to tools with the same number of blades. In addition, the special Fibonacci arrangement of blades makes the base body more robust and the tool breaks less easily.
Use of the Fibonacci principle prevents overlapping cuts. This substantially improves the cutting quality compared to conventional nesting tools. The optimum configuration of blades, based on a natural principle, minimizes vibration and enables the tool to operate more smoothly. LEUCO is able to use the space gained from its efficient tool design in various ways, including to strengthen the mounting of the basic cutter. This also enables the milling tool to cope with difficult situations.
Properties that make this nesting milling cutter the top performer in its sector. It is also quite unique: With its individual blades arranged within a tiny area, robustly and efficiently in accordance with a successful principle that has evolved in the natural world of millions of years. A perfect tool - small in size, big on delivery.
