Buy profile cutters from the manufacturer
Profile cutters made from high-quality and durable materials
Buy profile milling cutters from the manufacturer ✔ Over 30 years of experience ✔ Certified ✔ Quality made in Germany ✔
We manufacture profile milling cutters and supply our customers with high-quality, precision-manufactured tools that are perfect for milling complex contours in both metal and plastic materials.
When milling workpieces, it is often the case that complicated contours have to be produced in a single operation. As a manufacturer of profile milling cutters, we know that this involves two major challenges. On the one hand, the workpieces must have a high contour accuracy and, on the other hand, they must be able to be produced or milled competitively. This is where our profile milling cutters are being used more and more frequently. They combine speed, flexibility and precision in milling work.
Lehmann GmbH Präzisionswerkzeuge always supplies you with the right profile milling cutter for every requirement.

The most important information about profile cutter
Our profile milling cutters transfer their contour directly to the workpiece during milling. For this reason, processes in which profile milling cutters are used are referred to as imaging cutting processes. The advantage of this method of operation is that complicated contours can be produced precisely and, above all, quickly in different materials. This leads to shorter cycle and downtimes. Time-consuming tool changes are largely eliminated, as several work steps can be performed by the same tool. For this reason, profile milling cutters are often used in multi-variant part production.
We use a wide variety of materials with different properties in the manufacture of profile milling cutters. You can also find a wide range of milling cutters at Lehmann GmbH Präzisionswerkzeuge.

The most important fields of application of our profile milling cutters
Due to their versatility, profile milling cutters are used in many areas. Almost all shapes can be realized with them. A typical application is the production of grooves of any shape on prismatic workpieces (e.g. T-slots), prisms, dovetail guides and semicircular guides. Furthermore, they are used in the milling of gear teeth by means of disc or finger cutters and in the manufacture of gears.
For example, the following designs are widespread
PCD tools
Solid carbide tools
HM tipped tools
HSSE tools
Which materials are suitable always depends on the material to be machined. Special tools for different answers can be found, for example, in our AcrylRun, AluRun, GraphiteRun and CopperRun series.

Special features of profile milling
In order to better illustrate the special features of profile milling, we have once again summarized various other processes for you at this point.
Profile milling is a special form in that it can be used to produce particularly complex shapes. The areas of application are correspondingly versatile.
- Face milling - production offlat surface (e.g. shoulders, sealing surfaces, flanges, housings)
- Profile milling - contour of the clamped tool is directly transferred to the workpiece
- Screw milling - Used together with profile milling for the production of spindles
- Round milling - Used for the production of cylindrical surfaces
- Form milling - Milling of free forms
- Plunge milling - Especially suitable for large depths

Profile milling
Profile milling is an imaging milling process. The name comes from the fact that the shape of the clamped profile milling cutter is transferred directly to the workpiece. The process is mainly used to produce grooves on prismatic workpieces (e.g. T-slots). Other areas of application include gears, dovetail and semicircular guides.
There is a special feature in the profile milling of gears. In contrast to roll milling, the cutting movement here is not only performed by the rotating profile cutter while the workpiece is stationary. It is only rotated by one tooth after each milled tooth gap. It should be noted that a specially adapted side milling cutter is required for each tooth form.
Profile cutters are characterized by the fact that their contour is transferred directly to the workpiece. For this reason, processes in which profile milling cutters are used are referred to as imaging chip removal processes. The advantage of this mode of operation is that complicated contours can be realized precisely and, above all, quickly. This leads to shorter cycle and downtimes. Time-consuming tool changes are largely eliminated, since several work steps can be performed by the same tool. For this reason, profile milling cutters are often used in multi-variant part production.
Very different materials with different properties are used in the manufacture of profile milling cutters. You will also find a wide range of them at Lehmann Präzisionswerkzeuge GmbH.

There are four forms of form milling
Free-form milling
Reshaping milling
Kinematic form milling
drum cams
NC form milling
- Movement is controlled manually
Reshaping milling
- Template serves as master
- Shape is scanned by sensors and passed on to the machine's feed drives
- Also known as copy milling
- Hardly ever used today
Kinematic form milling
- Motion is generated by gears
- Formerly used for the production of identical workpieces in large series, among other things for the production of cam discs and
drum cams
- Hardly used today
NC form milling
- Numerical control (today mostly via CNC)
- Workpieces can be moved in three axis directions and tools can be tilted around two axes.
- Even complex shapes can be realized
- E.g. for the production of dies in mold making, casting molds and turbine blades
