CBN hones for improved surface finishing of machined superalloys

By its very nature, high-nickel, iron or cobalt alloy steels, including Monel, Inconel, Incoloy, Invar, Rene and Hasteloy, are some of the most difficult materials to machine. Because these superalloys are designed to deliver high strength at extremely high temperatures in components often found in “hot” sections of engines and turbines, the stresses and heat generated during machining are considerable.
