The inserts thus cut costs, avoid waste and produce more quality parts per edge, thus increasing capacity and productivity of manufacturers for critical turning applications involving steels, stainless steels, cast irons and high-temperature alloys.
Kennametal: Beyond Drive Cutting Inserts
Kennametal’s Beyond Drive cutting inserts come in a range of grades and geometries and suit turning applications. The titanium oxycarbonitride outer coating (TiOCN) coating increases wear- and abrasionresistance for lower temperatures and prolongs tool life. The bronze colour also acts as an effective wear indicator that enables the inserts to serve up to 30 percent more parts per edge.
