Shoulder milling generates two faces simultaneously, which requires peripheral milling in combination with face milling. Achieving a true, ninety degree shoulder is one of the most important requirements. Shoulder milling is performed by traditional square shoulder cutters. Shoulder face mills of conventional designs are often capable of milling “true”, 90 degree shallow shoulders. Many shoulder face mills are universal cutters, and can be used advantageously for making holes. They offer a good alternative to face milling cutters when milling axially deflecting surfaces or for milling close to vertical faces.

We manufacture customized shoulder milling cutters for our clients depending on their requirements. These cutters are available in diameters ranging from 30mm to 200mm and can be used with a variety of inserts.
