EDGE2 Double-Sided DTB Cutters and Inserts
Dapra Corp.'s New EDGE2 double-sided DTB cutters and inserts feature twice the number of usable edges as single-sided button inserts for superior metal removal and value. These thick carbide inserts provide better heat and stress absorption, resulting in longer service life and increased strength, according to the company.
Akuma Indexable Carbide Inserts
Akuma indexable carbide inserts from Travers Tool Co. inc. use advanced substrates, high-tech coating processes and progressive geometries to provide tools for today's demanding machining applications.
Groove ‘N Turn Dovetail Grooving Inserts
THINBIT, manufactured by Kaiser Tool Co., announces the expansion of its GROOVE 'N TURN line of dovetail grooving inserts. Dovetail grooving inserts are used to machine O-ring dovetail grooves with 66° undercut angles.
CoroTurn 300
For longitudinal and face turning, Sandvik Coromant introduces the CoroTurn 300 for higher component quality, increased handling efficiency and longer tool life in steel turning operations. The CoroTurn 300 features stable insert clamping, as well as eight-edged inserts for the high chip control, tool life and surface finish.
EDGE2 Spherical Ballnose Tools
Truly indexable finishing inserts have arrived with the new EDGE² spherical ballnose (SBN) system from DAPRA Corp. SBN inserts feature two usable cutting edges, delivering cost savings and high-quality finishes.
VT Series of PCBN Indexable Cutting Tools
EHWA Diamond Industrial Ltd. offers its VT series of PCBN (polycrystalline boron nitride) indexable cutting tools. With the VT line of inserts, end users can achieve deeper depths of cut given the more robust method of cutting edge construction versus the industry standard brazed chip-style insert, according to the company.
Heli IQ Mill inserts
Iscar Metals Inc. offers Heli IQ Mill inserts for numerous milling applications across a variety of industrial sectors. The three helical cutting edges reduce cutting forces and power consumption, according to the company. The inserts are now available in cermet for machining medium to hard materials, are peripherally ground for milling stainless steel, and are ground sharp and diamond-polished for cutting aluminum.
PCD05- and PCD20-grade PCD-tipped milling inserts
Seco Tools LLC offers PCD05- and PCD20-grade PCD-tipped milling inserts for its Turbo 10 cutter bodies. The inserts are suitable for cutting aluminum, titanium, polymers and fiber-reinforced composites. When used with carbide inserts, the PCD-tipped inserts act as wiper inserts in fixed pockets. The two grades come in the company's X010 insert size with a corner radius of 0.016" (0.4mm) and a wiper length of 0.43" (1.08mm).
XSYTIN-1 ceramic insert
Greenleaf Corp.'s XSYTIN-1 is a phase-toughened ceramic insert grade that resists wear and thermal shock. It is for milling, turning and grooving heat-resistant superalloys, cast iron, nodular iron, ductile iron, steel and stainless steel at extreme feed rates and high cutting speeds, according to the company. It is suitable for interrupted cuts, scale removal, roughing, semifinishing and finishing.
PCD inserts with CB3 chipbreakers
Rani Tool Corp. offers German-made PCD inserts with CB3 chipbreakers from Becker Diamond Tools. The chipbreaker has a semiserrated wave profile on the flanks of the cutting point, which increases the material-removal rate and produces short, controlled chips. The inserts are suitable for machining with flood coolant or minimal-quantity lubrication.
SwiftCARB Corner Rounders
SwiftCARB offers a complete line of straight-shank and shell-mill indexable-insert corner rounders. According to the company, the tools increase cutting speeds and feed rates by 25 percent, and the tools' inserts can be changed quickly, which enhances efficiency. The company stocks more than 70 radii, from 0.010" to 1" and from 1mm to 25mm.
