WhizCut Carbide Grades
WhizCut Carbide Inserts
WhizCut inserts are specially developed to suit
the cutting conditions in CNC Swiss automatics.
The WhizCut precision carbide inserts are made of
carbide which
results in maximum strength when looking at hardness and wear
resistance. All cutting edges are fully ground and exceptionally
sharp. This, together with the latest types of coating and
suitable cutting geometries, gives WhizCut inserts an excellent
tool life.
The WhizCut carbide inserts are available in both PVD coated and
uncoated Micrograin carbide with hardness over 1700 Hv. The grades
are classified as follows:
Stock Standard Carbide Grades for external inserts
- 8M is an uncoated grade covering ISO groups K10-K20 and
M10-M20.
- C8 is a coated grade covering ISO groups K05-K20, M05-M20
and P05-P10.
- F8 is a TiAIN multicoated grade where extreme heat is
developed when machining.
Stock Standard Carbide Grades for internal boring bars
- 10M is an uncoated micrograin grade at ISO K20-K30 for non
ferrous materials.
-
C10 is an TIN, PVD coated micrograin grade covering ISO groups
P20-P30 and K10-K30 for longer tool life and higher cutting speeds in Steel,
Stainless etc.
-
F10 is a TiAlN multicoated grade suitable when extreme heat (900°C) is
developed during machining.
-
B10 is a AlCrN coating suitable when extreme heat (1100°C) is developed
during machining.
WhizCut replaces carbide grades resulting in a 30% increased tool-life
Last year we performed some extensive tests with
different new types of grades for our carbide insert tooling. Many of our customers were working
together with us on this very important project. The result from these
tests was a great success. We found one type of carbide being
outstanding in improving the tool-life and performance of our inserts without any
negative results compared with our present grades 8M, C8 and F8.
The new carbide in the 8M, C8 and F8 grades is harder
but still has the same strength as the old ones. It is therefore
considerably more wear-resistant and has given an average of 30% better
insert tool-life. We have therefore decided to replace our previous grade. We
are fazing out our stock of our old grade and have started delivering
inserts with the new grade. Inserts with the new grade will have a label that says
“New improved grade”.
It is our firm belief that all our customers will see
the results of increased tool-life and productivity. |
