Pramet unravel turning dilemma with new ranges

January 6, 2016 11:43 am

Pramet has introduced two new positive geometries and grades for turning applications in difficult to machine materials.
 Suitable for a variety of turning applications, the SF and SM geometries have been launched to support the machining of materials such as high temperature alloys and stainless steel.
Part of Dormer Pramet’s second product launch of 2015, the SF geometry features a sharp, positive rake of 14.5 degree. It is suitable for finishing applications in continuous cut with very low forces. The SM geometry has a positive rake of 13 degree and is a wear-resistant, universal geometry for medium machining (finishing up to roughing) and suitable for continuous and interrupted cut. 
Both geometries are available in a variety of grades and have been designed to promote low cutting forces and prevent work-hardening. This helps to reduce the risk of vibration when turning thin-walled components. 
In addition to the new geometries, two new turning grades have been unveiled by the global cutting tool manufacturer.  
The PVD coated T6310 grade features a special sintering process which enhances cutting edge reliability and strength. Its new substrate with intermediate Cobalt content provides additional hardness and increased abrasion resistance to offer greater reliability and prolonged tool life.
