Tungaloy is introducing a coated cermet grade, AT9530 for steel turning applications. The new AT9530 grade incorporates Tungaloy’s unique multi-layered coating technology and special post-surface treatment PremiumTec. This combination provides superior resistance to wear and fracture for improved productivity in finishing of steel during high speed machining.
The grade offers remarkable wear resistance particularly in alloy steel turning, thus making it the first choice grade for that material application range. This latest addition complements the existing NS9530 and GT9530 cermet grades to enhance their application ranges and productivity.
The new AT9530 grade is available with the –TSF and –PS style chipbreakers, the first choice chipbreakers for steel turning, in standard ISO turning inserts as well as ISO-EcoTurn inserts. A total of 111 items are introduced to cover a range of applications.
Grade at a glance:
Well-balanced wear and fracture resistance thanks to special multi-layered (Ti,Al)N based coating
PremiumTec special post-surface treatment technology for machining stability
Workpiece is held in a chuck, mounted on a face plate or secured between centers and rotated while a cutting tool, normally a single-point tool, is fed into it along its periphery or across its end or face. Takes the form of straight turning (cutting along the periphery of the workpiece); taper turning (creating a taper); step turning (turning different-size diameters on the same work); chamfering (beveling an edge or shoulder); facing (cutting on an end); turning threads (usually external but can be internal); roughing (high-volume metal removal); and finishing (final light cuts). Performed on lathes, turning centers, chucking machines, automatic screw machines and similar machines.
Ability of the tool to withstand stresses that cause it to wear during cutting; an attribute linked to alloy composition, base material, thermal conditions, type of tooling and operation and other variables.

Tungaloy Corp. announces the expansion for EasyMultiCut: the EGP-CHP blade and the CTBU-CHP block, both of which respectively have a coolant hole for high-pressure internal coolant supply. EasyMultiCut is the multi-functional tool series for grooving, featuring a unique self-clamping insert that…
Tungaloy Corp. is launching the BXA20 series, a new coated PCBN grade for machining hardened steel. BXA20 delivers predictable and long tool life in a range of applications from roughing to finishing, including descaling of case hardened steel, which usually requires a large stock to be removed.
Tungaloy Corp. announces the expansion of DrillForce-Meister, the series of interchangeable-tip drills. DrillForce-Meister is a tool series for large-diameter holemaking (drill diameters from 26.0 to 41.0 mm) that features two effective cutting edges for high speed and high productivity.
NTK Cutting Tools offers a line of high-feed cutters (HFC) for milling aluminum. This series maximizes teeth/cutter, from seven teeth on the 50mm-dia. cutter to 22 teeth on a 125mm-dia. cutter, to reduce production time.
NTK’s new 3D molded chipbreakers are enhanced to achieve optimal chip control on the company’s Swiss tooling. They include: CTP–CX for cutoff operations, GTMH-GX for grooving or side turning, and TBP/TBPA-BM for “single-pass, back-turning” operations.
