Higher cutting speeds, longer tool life, and increased productivity when machining stainless steels are what metalworking customers can expect from the newly upgraded line of KC9225 inserts, part of the KENNA PERFECT turning system.
Specifically, a new coating construction helps increase cutting speeds between 20% and 40% compared to competitors' products. Enhanced post-coat finishing processes reduce chip hammering and built-up edge conditions, extending tool life and preventing insert damage, particularly in applications demanding continuous to lightly interrupted cuts at high cutting speeds.
Also on display during IMTS will be heavy-metal boring bars function equally well in finishing and medium-machining ID turning, grooving and threading tasks.
