Turning tool for HRSA material machining Sandvik Coromant USA
A radical new tooling solution for machining of titanium alloys and heat resistant super alloys materials is now being introduced by Sandvik Coromant. The new and patented Xcel tool provides a host of design advantages when semi-rough turning into shoulders, not previously available from a single tool.
Xcel features the accessibility and easy programming of an 80 degree insert along with reduced wear compared to a square insert used at 45 degree entering angle.
- Reduced notch wear and faster cutting speeds than rhombic inserts
- Ability to machine into corners to produce complex shapes
- Greater accessibility in confined spaces
- Possibility to machine in two directions
- Reduced radial forces and constant chip thickness compared to round inserts
Two insert sizes are now available to suit depths of cut from 0.5 to 3 mm in intermediate stage machining. They are offered in three grades, all proven performers in ISO S materials.
