Fast Feed Milling Cutters
        Fast feed (FF) milling cutters are a key factor in      Another concept is based on using one or two
        fast feed milling techniques. The cutter geometry,      straight edges that are chords of the arc. In
        designed for efficient chip thinning, needs to          both cases, the small cutting edge angle (usually
        ensure correct distribution of the cutting force        9-17°) meets the requirements of chip thinning
        components. There are two principal geometrical         and total cutting force. Ensuring the geometry of
        approaches. The first design requires the cutting       solid carbide fast feed endmills and replaceable
        edge of an FF milling cutter to be an arc of a          milling heads demands the specific shape of
        great circle.                                           a cutting edge, while in indexable milling it
