Tungaloy adds PVD-coated grade AH8015 in several geometry types to its MiniForce-Turn series for machining heat-resistant superalloys, steel and stainless steel.
MiniForce-Turn is a successful line of turning tools that feature an innovative double-sided positive insert and unique seat interface for secure location, which is as free cutting as standard single-sided positive inserts with maximum stability and tool economy.
Intended primarily for machining heat-resistant superalloys, the new PVD-coated grade AH8015 also exhibits excellent performance in steel and stainless steel machining with a balanced resistance to wear and chipping.
AH8015 is offered in the -TS, -SS, and -TSW style chipbreakers on six-cornered WXGU0403 inserts and four-cornered DXGU0703 inserts to provide longer and more predictable tool life over existing grades in a wide range of applications and materials.
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.
Additional Products from Tungaloy-NTK America, Inc.
Tungaloy Corp. announced an expansion of the AH8000 series for heat-resistant alloy turning. This expansion adds a new positive insert line to the product family.
Tungaloy America Inc. offers TetraMini-Cut tools for grooving and threading of small parts. The TetraMini-Cut’s ground insert, with four corners, is not only economical but also perfect for high-precision and high-quality machining of small parts, according to the company.
Tungaloy offers AH7025, the versatile PVD grade for TungCut, the multifunctional grooving tool with 2-cornered inserts. TungCut provides stable and long tool life because of its unique rigid insert clamping system, according to the company.
Tungaloy has introduced DuoJustCut, the parting-off tool for Swiss-type lathes. The innovative clamping system designed for DuoJustCut provides highly rigid insert clamping, and a toolholder is applicable for three types of inserts according to parting-off diameters.
Tungaloy Corp. has introduced the AH8000 series of PVD grades and chipbreakers for turning heat resistant alloys. The new PVD grades feature impressive resistance to both wear and fracture due to the world’s first nano-multi-layered AlTiN coating with high Al content and dramatically reduces notch…
Tungaloy Corp. has introduced SH725, the new PVD grade for turning on Swiss-style lathes, and an expansion of toolholders for the DoMiniTurn external line.
