New Grade for Steel Turning Increases Tool Life

Sumitomo’s AC8025P grade for steel turning is designed to increase productivity in a variety of steel turning applications such as continuous cutting, light-interrupted cutting and interrupted cutting. The grade features Sumitomo’s Absotech platinum CVD coating combined with a tough carbide substrate to resist adhesion and cutting edge Carbide Milling Inserts chipping.turning inserts for aluminum According to the company, improvements to the coating adhesion strength control residual stress while maintaining wear resistance. The smooth surface treatment is designed to improve adhesion resistance along the ridgeline of the cutting edge. When machining low-carbon steel, rolled steel and other materials prone to adhesion, the grade is designed to increase tool life by reducing problems such as peeling or chipping of the coating layer at the cutting edge and deterioration of surface finish.

Benchtop Tool Presetter Inspects for Wear, Fractures

Big Kaiser Precision Tooling offers the entry-level Innotool Diaset benchtop tool presetter equipped with a 5.7" color LCD touchscreen and camera. TCGT Insert This vision-based camera version enables one-touch angle, radius, diameter and length measurements. An optional incident light can be used for inspection of cutting edges for built-up edge and flank wear or fractures.

The presetter is built with a stable measuring column and mineral cast base. According to the company, its strong foundation ensures rigidity and high temperature resistance for good repeatability and positioning accuracy of 0.0001". These capabilities are also supported by horizontal and vertical slides that smoothly move along hardened and precision-ground guideways, both with pneumatic locking mechanisms and foot-pedal control.

The high-precision rotating spindle provides runout measurement to an accuracy of less than 0.0008" TIR, the company says, and is available with either integral ISO-50 or ISO-40 taper Carbide Inserts spindles. Reduction adapters are available for other common interfaces including ISO, HSK, KM, Polygon and more. Various combinations of maximum diameter/maximum length are available. Two built-in USB ports enable simultaneous external data saving and label printer connection in addition to the presetter’s internal storage capacity of 99 reference points.

Toolholders Provide Coolant Thru Capability

Techniks FID end mill holders are designed for improved chip evacuation, extended cutting tool life and high speeds and feed rates. The holders feature two internal coolant paths through the bore VCMT Insert of the toolholder. These paths flood the tip of the cutting tool with coolant. The company says this offers Carbide Insert for Cast Iron manufacturers the benefits of coolant-thru capability without the need to purchase coolant-thru cutting tools.

?

The toolholders bore IDs are built to a tolerance standard of H5 to minimize runout. They are balanced to 10,000 rpm and come with lab certification for ID accuracy, taper accuracy and balance. The holders are compatible with CAT 40 spindles in sizes to fit tool shanks from ?" to 1".

Broaching Toolholder Interchangeable with ER Collet Chucks

Somma Tool Co. offers a new style of broach toolholder designed to be interchangeable with any style of ER collet chuck. The compact, adjustment-free offset rotary toolholder threads onto an existing ER (16, 20, 25 and 32) collet chuck and features a built-in 1-degree wobble cutting edge for offset rotary broaching. This versatile broaching holder enables the user to swap one holder among different styles of shanks including round, Capto, VDI, Morse, CAT and NMTB taper. The holder reduces the need for toolholder adapter bushings, making it an economical alternative to other broaching systems, the company says.

These rotary broach holders use SommaSiwss broaches with 8-mm diameter shanks and ½" diameter shank broaches. The system is adjustment-free for on-TNMG Insert center applications Indexable Inserts not requiring offset compensation.

Dormer Pramet's GL Tool Designed for Long Grooving Applications

Dormer Pramet has added a new set Cemented Carbide Inserts of tooling to its parting-off and grooving assortment. The 0.98" GL double-edged insert is available in a variety of widths ranging from 0.08" 0.236". Designed for long-grooving applications, GL supports 60% capacity over the existing LCMF16 insert, the company says. The G8330 PVD insert grade is said to maintain stability when machining steel, stainless steel and cast iron. 

The insert is also supported by two new geometries. The PR geometry is designed for medium to high feeds in a variety of machining conditions. Its cutting edge strength resists cracking when grooving interrupted cuts and is ideal for the parting off of barstock, according to the company. The PM geometry is an option for low to medium feeds into softer materials, such as austenitic stainless steel, as it offers greater resistance bar peeling inserts to built-up edge and reduces burrs when parting-off tubes. 

Toolholders are available with shank dimensions ranging from 0.63" to 0.98" and an overhang ranging to 1.26". 

Designed for small part machining, the tools feature a 30-degree angled screw position for easier indexing and a brace to increase toughness.

How carbide tools can help you save cost?

Carbide tools is more and more popular in those Carbide Grooving Inserts years, although its selling cost is much expensive that other material like HSS, but still many end user who working in machining industry choose carbide tools, as it can help save total produce cost.How it help saving cost ?Firstly, the carbide cutting tools with U Drill Inserts good wear-resistant and suitable hardness, it can have a longer tool life, the end user do not have to change the cutting tools frequently, so the labor cost decreased. in those years ,labor cost keep increasing, so it decreased can do much help for total cost saving .Besides, the carbide materials allow higher cutting speeds and feed rates on the workpieces, With this trait, The time required to complete the same machining program is shorter, Production efficiency is greatly improved. the unit cost shared by each pieces is lower .Therefore,the total cost is lower than use other material tools .We,Zhuzhou Estool tools .,co.ltd is a professional manufacture for carbide cutting tools, widely use in metalworking and woodworking, any needed, welcome to contact us for more details, thanks!
