Tungaloy has introduced DX110 polycrystalline diamond insert grade, a submicron grain sized PCD for superior finishing of nonferrous materials.
DX110 has a very fine grain size polycrystalline diamond structure that produces a mirror finish of various types of aluminum and copper alloys. The new DX110 inserts are all available with positive rake geometry with high cutting edge quality for effective chip control as well as reduced cutting force which minimizes deformation of thin-walled parts during machining. The T-DIA series is now able to meet a broader range of nonferrous challenges with the new DX110 inserts.
At a Glance:
Submicron grain PCD structure ensures super fine surface finishing
Positive rake cutting edge provides low cutting force and better chip control
Seven inserts to be added

- alloys
alloys
Substances having metallic properties and being composed of two or more chemical elements of which at least one is a metal.
- copper alloys
copper alloys
Copper containing specified quantities of alloying elements added to obtain the necessary mechanical and physical properties. The most common copper alloys are divided into six groups, and each group contains one of the following major alloying elements: brasses—major alloying element is zinc; phosphor bronzes—major alloying element is tin; aluminum bronzes—major alloying element is aluminum; silicon bronzes—major alloying element is silicon; copper-nickels and nickel-silvers—major alloying element is nickel; and dilute-copper or high-copper alloys, which contain small amounts of various elements such as beryllium, cadmium, chromium or iron.
- cutting force
cutting force
Engagement of a tool’s cutting edge with a workpiece generates a cutting force. Such a cutting force combines tangential, feed and radial forces, which can be measured by a dynamometer. Of the three cutting force components, tangential force is the greatest. Tangential force generates torque and accounts for more than 95 percent of the machining power. See dynamometer.
- polycrystalline diamond ( PCD)
polycrystalline diamond ( PCD)
Cutting tool material consisting of natural or synthetic diamond crystals bonded together under high pressure at elevated temperatures. PCD is available as a tip brazed to a carbide insert carrier. Used for machining nonferrous alloys and nonmetallic materials at high cutting speeds.
- polycrystalline diamond ( PCD)2
polycrystalline diamond ( PCD)
Cutting tool material consisting of natural or synthetic diamond crystals bonded together under high pressure at elevated temperatures. PCD is available as a tip brazed to a carbide insert carrier. Used for machining nonferrous alloys and nonmetallic materials at high cutting speeds.
- rake
rake
Angle of inclination between the face of the cutting tool and the workpiece. If the face of the tool lies in a plane through the axis of the workpiece, the tool is said to have a neutral, or zero, rake. If the inclination of the tool face makes the cutting edge more acute than when the rake angle is zero, the rake is positive. If the inclination of the tool face makes the cutting edge less acute or more blunt than when the rake angle is zero, the rake is negative.
