NTK Cutting Tools has released a new proprietary group of advanced composite cutting tool materials called "BIDEMICS." They are designed for machining high nickel alloys used in the aircraft and oil and gas industries. JX1 is the first "BIDEMICS" grade released that has a 1600-SFM speed capability in semi-finish and finish applications vs. whisker ceramics.

The second "BIDEMICS" grade is JP2, a coated multitipped finishing insert which competes directly against carbide and PCBN applications.
