Machining data of Greenleaf’s products have shown


significant improvement over current machining technology when correctly applied in a well-designed machining process.


Greenleaf Gets Results Here are examples of some of our latest innovative products and their results:


Ring Max™ is a complete tooling system


for cutting American Petroleum


Industry ring grooves for oil and gas industry transport


and containment. API ring grooves are machined into hardened surfaces enabling


two halves of the flange to seal firmly with erosion-resistant metallic gaskets. Tight tolerances of 0.001” (0.03 mm) are required and specifications are closely regulated. Ring Max™ cutters are available in most popular shank configurations. Using WG 300® whisker-reinforced ceramic inserts Ring Max™ can cut machining time from 30 minutes or more to less than one minute. The latest addition, the Ring Max™ III cutter, is a precision two-piece modular system that features a replaceable ring groove cutter that can be changed in just seconds and can also accept face mills.


Index-O-Cut™ is a high-performance milling system for all materials thanks to its high-shear cutting action and the 45˚ lead angle on the octagon-style insert. The design of the Index-O-Cut™ face mills allows for light-duty machines to


run these cutters at high speeds with reduced spindle load. They feature the most effective number of inserts per cutter diameter possible, resulting in increased performance and tool life. The geometry of the Index-O-Cut™ makes it a great general machine shop tool for a variety of materials and will maximize your productivity in a variety of applications from light-duty milling to heavy machining.


WG-700™ coated whisker-reinforced ceramic material features an optimized substrate and a nano-layered platinum coating. WG-700™ excels in machining difficult-to- cut materials such as nickel- and cobalt-based super alloys. Metal removal rates using WG-700™ are up to 10X greater than carbide and 3X greater than SiAlON materials. In machining Inconel 718 Plus with a 30% higher machinability rating than Inconel 718, productivity has been maintained with the same machining speeds and feeds. In some applications, tool life has also improved.


GSN100™ is an engineered blend of hot-pressed silicon nitride ceramic and proprietary toughening agents for machining cast iron. Typical applications include brake drums, brake rotors, cylinder blocks and heads, machine beds, and all types of gear cases and housing for trucks, tractors, and farm equipment. GSN100™ delivers outstanding tool life at cutting speeds up to 5000 SFM (1524 SMM) in single-point turning and grooving operations as well as milling. GSN100™ is available in all standard geometries and engineered specials.


Game Changing Choices We make decisions based on project information and


goals. If special tooling is needed or tool layouts for standard products are required, the Engineering department begins the initial work. Applications Engineers begin to detail grades, speeds and feeds, or even choose to involve Research & Development if a special grade or coating is deemed necessary based on the material and project specs. Custom solutions involving special-designed


tooling give us the unique capability of making game changing choices. Typically we try our standard products first, but the solution might require a mix of standard and special tools. It should be noted that 70% of our steels tools are design-to-build and 50% of our insert recommendations are design-to-build,
