When a new insert grade comes to market, it typically refl ects a compromise between impact and wear resistance, or toughness and hardness. After all, a large majority of grades are developed to excel in specifi c manufacturing conditions.
High-hardness, heat-resistant insert grades, for example, are known for their ability to eff ectively perform at high cutting speeds. However, they lack the toughness required for handling interrupted cuts. Then, there are tough insert grades that can tackle interrupted cuts, but do not have the wear resistance required for high- temperature applications.
There are, however, three new products that manufacturers focused on steel turning applications can use to overcome this common metalworking problem: they are the TP2501, TP1501 and TP0501 grades from Seco Tools.
These next-generation Duratomic grades achieve the elusive balance of toughness and hardness when machining steel alloys, stainless steels and cast iron. Plus, the application areas for these grades overlap so they can accommodate virtually any steel-turning need.
Furthermore, the advancements Seco has made to its precedent- setting Duratomic a-based Al2O3 coating allow these TP grades to off er increased toughness, heat resistance and chemical inertness over their predecessors. This, in turn, makes them the most reliable, predictable and productive cutting tool solutions of their kind.
Another advantage of these TP grades comes by way of used-edge detection technology. This innovative technology makes it easy to spot cutting edges that have made contact with a workpiece, even in very light fi nish-machining passes. As a result, users can process more parts per edge, limit production interruptions and reduce waste.
TP2501: VERSATILE PRODUCTIVITY • Multi-capable grade for general steel turning applications
• Highly secure edge toughness behavior for unpredictable working conditions
TP1501: BALANCED PRODUCTIVITY • Balances speed and productivity in low-alloy steel workpieces
• High reliability and accuracy ensures consistent part quality
TP0501: HIGH-SPEED PRODUCTIVITY • Achieves exceptional speeds in high-alloy steel workpieces
• Extreme heat resistance provides coolant-free high metal removal rates
