Advanced Ultra-Hard Carbide Inserts
Superior Toughness & Hardness
Engineered from a specialized ultra-hard carbide, offering a balance of high toughness and extreme hardness.
Designed specifically for interrupted cutting conditions, including severe intermittent machining in high-hardness applications.
Unlike conventional high-hardness inserts prone to chipping under impact, this carbide insert excels in shock-resistant performance.
Key Features
High fracture resistance, ensuring durability even in high-impact cutting.
Optimized for interrupted machining, reducing thermal shock and maintaining cutting edge stability.
Higher cutting speeds in extreme conditions, as intermittent cutting allows slower heat buildup compared to continuous operations.
Can This Insert Replace CBN?
Answer: Not entirely, as CBN is ideal for continuous machining with high cutting speeds and low material removal rates.
However, this carbide insert excels in interrupted and severe intermittent machining, where CBN is prone to chipping under impact.
It is best suited for semi-finishing to rough machining at medium-to-low cutting speeds, offering better safety and performance in shock-heavy conditions.
Recommended Cutting Parameters
For 55-60 HRC Materials:
Cutting speed: 50-70 m/min
Depth of cut: 0.2-0.50 mm
Feed per revolution: 0.10-0.20 mm
For 60-65 HRC Materials:
Cutting speed: 30-50 m/min
Depth of cut: 0.15-0.25 mm
Feed per revolution: 0.12-0.20 mm
For 65-68 HRC Materials:
Cutting speed: 18-30 m/min
Depth of cut: 0.10-0.20 mm
Feed per revolution: 0.08-0.15 mm
For Extreme Intermittent Machining (e.g., 62 HRC Gears):
Cutting speed: 70-120 m/min
Depth of cut: 0.15-0.25 mm
Feed per revolution: 0.15-0.22 mm
Usage & Cooling Considerations
Suitable for both dry and wet cutting.
Avoid sudden cooling fluctuations (do not rapidly alternate between coolant and dry cutting) to prevent tool edge damage.
This next-generation carbide insert eliminates the trade-off between toughness and hardness, making it a safer, more efficient, and stable choice for high-hardness intermittent machining applications. 🚀
