Product
The CMT 90° V-Groove Router Bit for Alucobond (Ref: 324253) is engineered for precise V-grooving of composite panels, especially ALUCOBOND®, enabling fast and accurate fabrication of three-dimensional panel shapes for architectural or signage applications.
Specifications
- High-quality HW (carbide) cutting edges for extended tool life and consistent performance
- 90° V-groove geometry specifically optimized for routing composite aluminum panels
- Suitable for routers, trimmers, edge banders, and CNC machining centers
- Designed for a balance of chip clearance and material integrity during cutting
- Ensures a clean cut on the rear of the panel while preserving material at the groove base for manual folding
Usage
This router bit creates a 90° V-groove on the back side of ALUCOBOND® panels, leaving a thin layer of material on the outer face. The routed panel can then be manually folded along the groove to produce precise bends without requiring a brake or press. The remaining material thickness defines the folding radius, allowing you to fabricate various shapes and profiles efficiently for cladding or display solutions using standard or CNC routers.
FAQ
-
What panel materials is this router bit compatible with?
This bit is designed for ALUCOBOND® and similar composite aluminum panels featuring a metal-plastic-metal sandwich structure. -
Does the V-groove completely cut through the panel?
No, it removes material from the rear, leaving a thin layer on the front cover sheet; this allows manual folding without cutting through. -
Can the bit be used with CNC machines?
Yes, it is suitable for both manual routers and CNC machining centers for automated workflows. -
What is the optimal remaining material thickness at the groove base?
It is recommended to leave a small, controlled layer (typically 0.3–0.5 mm) to maintain panel integrity and facilitate clean folding. -
Is specialized equipment required to fold panels after routing?
No press brake is necessary; after grooving, panels can be folded manually along the groove to create various shapes.
