Boosts abound with Ceratizit’s new milling system
The ability to achieve cost-effective, secure, milling, with added process flexibility is now a reality thanks to the development of Ceratizit’s MaxiMill 271 indexable insert milling system.
Double the tool life!
Tooling expert Walter GB has announced that its new WEP10 cermet indexable insert offers two major advantages over coated carbide inserts for finish turning: double the tool life; and no fluctuation in dimensional wear which minimises the need for re-adjustment - for example, when making modifications to the component.
Made from an extremely fine-grained substrate on a TiCN/CN base with an Ni/Co binder, the benefits are a result of the insert’s highly wear-resistant multi-layer coating.
In addition, a special edge preparation on the cermet grade produces a ‘glossy’ finished surface – at high and low cutting speeds – and this premium finish is particularly desirable for components that are visible, such as those used in car interiors, for which a good surface value alone isn't enough.
WEP10 is suitable for stainless steels and cast iron as well as ISO P materials, and is especially useful for finishing parts such as drive shafts and gearwheels with a continuous or slightly interrupted cut.
