[0021] The technical solution of the present utility model is further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0022] Example:

[0023] like Figure 1 As shown, a milling cutter comprises a cutter head 2 and a shank 1. A plurality of chip cutting edges 3 are arranged at unequal intervals on the end of the cutter head 2 away from the shank 1. The chip cutting edges 3 can be used to perform chip cutting operations on the surface of a workpiece. The plurality of chip cutting edges 3 extend radially outwardly from the cutter head 2 to form a front cutting face 4, a finishing edge 5 and a back cutting face 6 in sequence. The finishing edge 5 can be used to perform finishing operations on the surface of the workpiece when cutting chips.

[0024] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the angle between the wiper edge 5 and the chip cutting edge 3 is 7°-10°. Figure 2 a is the angle between the wiper edge 5 and the chip edge 3, the included angle and the length of the wiper edge 5 are 0.6mm-0.7mm, the wiper edge 5 and the back face 6 form a tool tip, the tool tip is an arc structure, the angle between the back face 6 and the axial rake angle of the axis of the cutter head 2 is 1°-3°, Figure 2 c is the angle between the back face 6 and the axial rake angle of the axis of the cutter head 2, and the angle between the front face 4 and the chip edge 3 is 11°-13°. Figure 2 b is the angle between the front cutting edge 4 and the chip cutting edge 3. The center width of the chip cutting edge 3 is 0.1mm-0.2mm. Within this range, the strong vibration caused during processing is reduced, the processing stability is improved, and the wear of the chip cutting edge 3 is reduced. When processing the workpiece, the polishing treatment is performed on the workpiece at the same time through the coordinated use of the polishing edge 5, so that the rough and fine processing operations on the workpiece can be performed at the same time, thereby improving the processing efficiency. Figure 3 d is the center blade width.

[0025] like Figure 1 and Figure 6 As shown, a cutting edge 7 is circumferentially arranged on the side of the cutter head 2, and the cutting edge 7 is spirally arranged along the axis of the cutter head 2. A chip removal channel 8 is arranged between adjacent cutting edges 7, and a plurality of chip blowing holes 9 are arranged on the chip removal channel 8. A chip blowing channel 10 is arranged on the axis of the handle 1, and the chip blowing channel 10 is conductively connected with the plurality of chip blowing holes 9. Waste chips generated during cutting can be discharged to the outside along the chip removal channel 8, and the waste chips attached to the surface of the workpiece and the chip removal channel 8 can be blown away by the chip blowing channel 10 and the chip blowing holes 9, so as to avoid damage to the cutting edge 7 or the chip cutting edge 3 caused by friction between the waste chips and the cutting edge 7 or the chip cutting edge 3. A plurality of chip dividing grooves 11 are arranged on the cutting edge 7, and the distances between the chip dividing grooves 11 are unequal. The width of the chip dividing groove 11 is a structure that is narrow in front and wide in the back, and the chip dividing groove is in the shape of an oblique rice grain, and smaller waste chips can be discharged to the outside through the chip dividing groove 11.

[0026] like Figure 1 and Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the core thickness of the cutter head 2 is 9mm-11mm, and the front angle of the cutting edge 7 is 15°-17°. Figure 4 f is the core thickness, e is the front angle, the first back angle of the cutting tool is 9°-12°, and the second back angle of the cutting tool is 24°-27°. Figure 5 Here g is the first back angle and h is the second back angle.

[0027] Working principle:

[0028] The chip cutting edge 3 and the cutting edge 7 can perform cutting operations on the surface of the workpiece being processed. The finishing edge 5 on the chip cutting edge 3 can perform finishing treatment on the surface of the workpiece being processed during chip cutting, which can improve the smoothness of the workpiece surface, thereby meeting the needs of semi-finishing during the workpiece processing process. The waste chips cut by the cutting edge 7 and the chip cutting edge 3 are spirally discharged to the outside through the chip discharge channel 8, and the smaller waste chips can be discharged to the outside through the chip dividing groove 11. By injecting external high-pressure airflow into the chip blowing channel 10, the airflow blows away the waste chips attached to the chip blowing channel 10 or attached to the workpiece surface through the chip blowing hole 9, thereby avoiding the friction between the waste chips and the cutting edge 7 and the chip cutting edge 3, which leads to a reduction in the service life of the cutting edge 7 and the chip cutting edge 3.

[0029] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solution of the utility model rather than to limit it. Although the utility model has been described in detail with reference to the preferred embodiments, ordinary technicians in the field should understand that the technical solution of the utility model can be modified or replaced by equivalents without departing from the purpose and scope of the technical solution of the utility model, which should be included in the scope of the claims of the utility model.
