A micro square end mill is a cutting tool used to create intricate shapes, grooves, and slots in materials such as metal, plastic, and wood. It is designed with a small diameter and flutes that are arranged in a square pattern. This allows the tool to cut into material with precision while reducing the risk of breaking or damaging it. The micro square end mill is an essential tool for machinists and engineers who need to create small-scale components with accuracy. It can be used for various applications including drilling, milling, counterboring, and reaming. With its versatility and precision, it has become an invaluable tool for many professionals in the manufacturing industry.
✎ Three Main Features of Micro Square End Mill
1. The size
The size of the micro square end mill can range from 0.5mm to 3mm, with the most common size being 1mm. This small size allows for extremely precise machining operations and can be used for a variety of applications including drilling, cutting and grinding.
2. The surface quality
Micro square end mills are a type of cutting tool that are specifically designed to provide superior surface quality when machining materials. They feature small, square-shaped flutes that cut through material quickly and efficiently, resulting in a smooth finish. The unique design of the micro square end mill allows it to produce precise results with minimal effort and time, making it an ideal choice for those who need to achieve high-quality finishes on their projects. Additionally, these tools can be used on a variety of materials including aluminum, steel, wood and plastic. With its ability to produce precise results quickly and easily, the micro square end mill is an essential tool for any machine shop or workshop.
3. The strength and toughness
Micro square end mills are an essential tool for any machinist, providing the strength and toughness needed to produce precise and accurate parts. They are made from high-grade materials, such as high-speed steel or carbide, which makes them durable and reliable. Their small size allows them to fit into tight spaces, making them ideal for use in a variety of applications. In addition, they can be used with a variety of cutting fluids to ensure maximum performance and longevity. With their strength and toughness, micro square end mills are an ideal choice for any machining project.

✎ How to maintain and protect the micro square end mill ?
In the processing industry, how to effectively maintain and maintain micro-diameter milling cutters is an issue that everyone should pay attention to. Generally speaking, we all hope that our milling cutters can be used for a long time, so learning how to maintain and maintain milling cutters is also important. It has become particularly important to follow the tool maintenance and repair rules and monitor tool wear. Only by doing a good job in tool maintenance can you effectively extend tool life and improve work efficiency. The following will introduce you to the daily maintenance and maintenance methods of micro-diameter milling cutters :
▶ 1. During the process of placement, transportation, installation and disassembly, attention should be paid to protecting the accuracy of the cutting edge of the milling cutter. Even if the milling cutter is sent for grinding, attention should be paid to and the accuracy of the cutting edge should be protected.
▶ 2. Milling cutters that have been ground should be cleaned first. Milling cutters that have been used with cutting fluid should clean up residual cutting oil and chips in time to prevent oxidation effects on the surface of the milling cutter and affect accuracy.
▶ 3. When placing milling cutters, avoid contact between the cutting edge and metal objects. When the drilling and milling machine is stored in the warehouse, special equipment should be set up to keep a certain distance between the milling cutters to avoid mutual damage to the cutting edges.
▶ 4. If the working environment is relatively humid, pay attention to the storage location of the cutting tools, check them regularly and apply anti-rust oil for protection.
▶ 5. Tools should be stored in special packaging to avoid damage to the cutting edge, wrong model, etc.
