OSG PHOENIX PXM

Product system overview

OSG PHOENIX PXM is an exchangeable-head end-mill platform built from separately orderable heads, shanks, joints, and accessories. Head series, applicable-head size, shank designation, EDP number, geometry, grade, reach, and connection must be preserved as one verified assembly.

Industries and applications

• Modular roughing and finishing where exchangeable heads share a controlled PXM shank platform.
• Shouldering, slotting, contouring, profile milling, plunging, and material-specific work when the selected PXM head explicitly supports the operation.
• Long-reach or carbide-shank assemblies where runout, interface size, torque, and operating limits are documented for the complete combination.

Technical and quote details

• OSG lists PHOENIX PXM under exchangeable-head end mills and provides separate directories for holders and exchangeable heads.
• Official List 78018 identifies metric cylindrical steel and carbide shanks and lists EDP number, full designation, body type, neck dimensions, overall length, shank diameter, and applicable-head size.
• Official head lists such as 78PXBM and 78PXSE provide head designation, diameter, flute count, cutting length, grade, and applicable arbors and accessories.
• PXM head families cover different geometries and materials; a common PXM label or nominal diameter does not establish compatibility.
• OSG item records expose EDP and designation values that should be retained independently for search and replenishment.
• Compatibility, lineage, or lifecycle crosswalk: head-to-shank to PHOENIX PXM shank whose specified applicable-head size matches the exact PXM head (conditional). Match head and shank designations, applicable-head size, interface, diameter, neck and reach, body material, screw or joint, torque, coolant, maximum speed, and current OSG list revision.

Selection notes

Store head, shank, joint, screw, and accessory identifiers as separate products joined by a source-dated compatibility record.

Retain the OSG list number, EDP number, complete designation, applicable-head size, geometry, grade, reach, and current technical literature for each assembly.

Variables to validate

• PXM is a modular platform, not a universal head-to-shank interchangeability claim.
• Match the specified applicable-head size, designation, body type, interface, dimensions, head geometry, grade, screw or joint, torque, coolant, and maximum speed.
• Do not infer compatibility from diameter, PXM branding, or physical fit; use the current OSG head, shank, and accessory tables.
