Minicut International is a Canadian company specialized in the manufacturing of high-precision cutting tools for the aerospace and metalworking industries. With an experienced team of dedicated engineers, technicians and tool makers, the Montreal based manufacturing operation is supported by a distribution network as well as warehousing centers.
While exporting 60% of its production, Minicut International enjoys sizeable business with aerospace contractors such as Boeing, Northrop, Pratt - Whitney, Bombardier, Bell Helicopter, GE, and Korea Aerospace, just to name a few. Minicut International is also present in Europe, Japan and Korea, however, the majority of its business stems from its broad industrial distribution network.
Much of the success obtained by Minicut International in this highly technological and most competitive field of activity is its constant commitment to research in manufacturing and product technology, resulting in the development of innovative high performance products. The Minicut roughing end mills and the Megamill indexable carbide milling cutters are Minicut€™s signature products and have been specifically developed for machining Aluminum, Titanium, Inconel and other exotic materials.
Founded in 1963, Minicut International utilizes advanced manufacturing techniques with state of the art equipment.

Unique Applications: The MEGAMILL
INTERNATIONAL's newly patented indexable carbide
milling cutter is truly the next generation in
cutting tool technology. The MEGAMILL is the only
indexable cutter today which incorporates a
sinusoidal insert along a true positive helical
arrangement. The MEGAMILL's high shear and free
cutting geometry will tremendously increase your
feeds and speeds while reducing horsepower
requirements and eliminate cyclical vibrations.
The MEGAMILL is available in long edge, shell
mill and face mill type with insert grades and
coatings for specific applications.

Success Stories: few years ago INTERNATIONAL developed, patented
and introduced the "MINICUT" roughing End Mill to
the metalworking industry. Until that time the
scope of development throughout the cutting tool
industry had been basically concentrated towards
different and somewhat better materials in order
to obtain the higher levels of productivity.
The "MINICUT" however, presented a new chapter in
cutting tool evolution with a revolutionary
geometric concept applied to the cutting edge.
In fact the "MINICUT" End Mill embodies three
very particular geometric concepts: 1- Variable radial rake angle with interrupted
cut.
2- Undulated flute face.
3- Sinusoidal gullet and trailing faces.
When the cutting edge comes in contact with the
workpiece, the angle of attack (or rake angle)
being continuously different at each point of the
cutting edge, creates a shearing force along the
width of the chip formation while the interaction
of this force with the interrupted rake face
obliges the chip to uncouple and evacuate from
the machining surface - therefore elimination of
build up on the cutting edges and reduction in
recutting of chips.
The effect and consequences of the sinusoidal
gullet and trailing faces on the formation of
chips are explained as follows: During chip
formation, as the chip begins to curl within the
gullet space this geometry provides less space in
which to curl at the two extremities of the
interrupted cutting edge compared to the central
portion. The sinusoidal gullet in fact reaches
its maximum amplitude at the middle of the
interrupted cutting edge. This uneven curling
space creates a springing effect on the chips and
together with the shearing force produce the
phenomenon of chip ejection from the work area as
observed by the many users of "MINICUT" End
Mills.
It is this unique geometry which enables
the "MINICUT" to achieve better machining
capabilities over other types of roughing and
finishing high speed cutters used in the industry
today.
