VERSATILE TURNING GEOMETRY FOR FINISH TURNING OF DIFFICULT-TO-MACHINE PARTS
Turning geometry from ATI Stellram combines with proven grades and coatings to increase productivity and provide high resistance to heat and edge breakdown, with little to no loss in tool life.
Posted: August 4, 2010
A new, highly versatile turning geometry for the finish turning of components manufactured from steel to the most difficult-to-machine materials, such as high-temperature alloys, has been launched by ATI Stellram (La Vergne, TN).
The Stellram® 1B insert is available in a choice of hard-wearing grades, including SP0819, which is designed for high cutting speeds on difficult-to-machine materials, and Nitro-Lok® -coated NL37, designed for high cutting speeds in unalloyed and alloyed steels. These grade and coating technologies combined with this unique geometry, not only boost productivity but improve component integrity.
According to ATI Stellram, the 1B geometry has been designed in combination with proven grades and coatings to provide high resistance to heat and edge breakdown, resulting in little to no loss in tool life while still increasing productivity.
ATI Stellram has also produced a dedicated product brochure, which includes the complementary medium to roughing 4E geometry for difficult-to-machine materials. The brochure provides a range of useful information, including cutting data and chip control charts.
