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.
It provides an excellent combination of wear resistance and toughness.
The new substrate, fine-grain alpha aluminum oxide coating and highly micro-polished cutting edges offer outstanding machining parameters and deformation resistance as well as a high-quality surface and a long, dependable life expectancy.
The improved grade KC9325 was designed for turning cast iron materials where increased toughness is required.
KC9325 meets the requirements for machining in interrupted cutting and for roughing.
Due to its thick alpha aluminum oxide coating, KC9325 is the ideal cutting material for turning gray cast iron parts at high cutting speeds, even when using a coolant.
The wear resistance has been specifically optimized.
Both grades enable productivity improvements as a result of reduced machining times and higher machining speeds and feed rates.
These grades are available for the following inserts: CNMA, DNMA, SNMA, TNMA, VNMA, WNMA, CNMG, DNMG, SNMG, TNMG, VNMG, WNMG with -UN and -RP chipbreakers.
Grade KC9325 is also available for -RN chipbreakers.
