CrazyMill / CrazyDrill Hexalobe
Saving time while increasing 
precision and quality

Shorter machining time* -
up to 50% faster

  • Drilling and chamfering in one step (save one operation for chamfering)
  • Short cycle time for milling thanks to high removal rate (ap and ae), i.e. high-angle milling with helical interpolation

For example: milling in Titanium, version 3.5 x d, p = 0.4 x d (quality and cycle time depending on cutting parameter and machine conditions)

Special characteristics

  • New concept: drilling – chamfering – milling – deburring: four operations in three steps with two tools
  • Highest efficiency and short machining time for Titanium, Stainless Steel and Cobalt Chrome
  • Three specific geometries for the machining of Titanium, Stainless Steel and Cobalt Chrome: CrazyDrill Hexalobe Flat – one geometry; CrazyDrill Hexalobe – two geometries; CrazyMill Hexalobe – three geometries 
  • High-performance coating eXedur SNP, chrome free, heat and wear resistant prevent buildup of edges and guarantees optimum chip flushing 
  • Micro-grain carbide with high stiffness and edge chipping resistance
  • Highest surface quality and profile matching
  • Mikron Tool produces all tools with highest repeat precision. Hence the user will benefit from long term stable production conditions (stable process and machining precision)
