SLOT MILLING WITH STABILITY BUILT IN
with Kyocera's 6-Edge High-Efficiency Slot Mill

The MG90B delivers stable, high-efficiency slot milling with an economical 6-edge insert. Sharp cutting edges lower cutting force and spindle load, rigid insert clamping holds groove width and diameter, and large chip pockets clear chips cleanly even at high feed rates. With standard cutting widths from 0.118" to 0.472", cutting diameters from ø1.969" to ø6.299", and custom configurations available, the MG90B is built to fit your slotting and grooving applications.

MG90B High-Efficiency Slot Mill Lineup

Economy + Sharpness

Six usable cutting edges per insert improve insert utilization and reduce tooling costs. A staggered arrangement positions inserts on both sides of the cutter body, and sharp edge geometry minimizes cutting force for smooth, stable slot milling with lower burr height.


Rigidity + Chip Control

A wide support surface directly beneath the cutting edge withstands cutting loads and minimizes insert movement for accurate groove width and cutting diameter. Wide chip pockets and recessed geometry prevent chip packing at high feed rates and leave a clean groove bottom finish.

More Edges, Less Movement, Clean Grooves

Six sharp cutting edges per insert lower your cost per edge. Rigid clamping keeps inserts seated under load, and large chip pockets clear chips at high feeds. Custom widths and diameters are available.

Economical 6-Edge Insert Design

Six usable cutting edges improve insert utilization and reduce tooling costs. The staggered insert arrangement positions inserts on both sides of the cutter body.

Sharp cutting-edge geometry minimizes cutting forces and reduces spindle load for smooth, stable machining.
