Chipbreaker for Swiss Turning



Sumitomo Electric Carbide, Inc. offers its MESI chipbreaker for Swiss turning and small parts machining. It features a 15° nose and a sharp 8° main edge, and provides a low cutting force. "Studies have shown the MESI to perform with high wear-resistance in applications using titanium," said a company spokesperson. "A wavy cutting edge maintains better chip control (for bar feeder machines), while the incorporation of dimples reduces cutting temperatures."

The MESI is suitable for medical parts and high precision parts machining. Available geometries include CCGT, DCGT and VCGT; grades include AC510U / 520U / 530U / AC610M / 630M.
