Increase performance in irons by up to
30%
Appreciably higher cutting speeds and a distinct improvement in process reliability when cutting grey and nodular cast irons were observed using carbides with a MT-CVD-TiCN coating.
Kennametal's new KC9315 and KC9325 cutting materials permit appreciably higher cutting speeds and produce a distinct improvement in process reliability when cutting grey and nodular cast iron materials They can improve performance by up to 30 % compared with other carbide grades

Micro tooling system speeds up auto lathe changes
Quick-change tooling system for automatic lathes, featured in the "Micro Machining Tools" catalogue, has achieved time savings of up to 40% and can be used in turning and boring operations.
The "golden" KC9315 has a highly wear-resistant substrate with a thick, extremely high-performance MT-CVD-TiCN coating.
It is suitable in particular for the higher cutting speed range and is extremely wear-resistant when machining nodular cast iron materials GGG50 to GGG80.
The "black" grade KC9325 - a wear-resistant substrate - features a thick aluminium oxide coating.
It is mainly intended for machining grey iron and ferritic nodular cast iron materials up to GGG40.
The improved wear behaviour yields a distinct increase in tool life when machining ADI and GGV materials.
The polished cutting edges make it possible to use this grade for cutting steel, especially in dry machining processes.
Both grades are available for the programmes Kenloc (neg.
indexable inserts with hole), SREW-ON (pos.
indexable screw-on inserts ) and Kendex (pos.
indexable inserts without hole).
The chip breaker programme covers the entire range of Kenna Perfect geometries.
