Effectively Cooling the Cutting Zone
May 1, 2014
Coolant is discharged directly from the chip breaker of the S100 with internal cooling.
A new addition to the S100 cutting insert with internal cooling is available in the new coating grade HP65, featuring the 3V geometry and 3 mm (.118") width.
"Specifically designed for grooving and parting off stainless steels, the wear-resistant TiAlN coating exceeds expectations in heat resistance and wear," said a company spokesperson. "Internal cooling supplied through the funnel-shaped nozzle creates a coolant jet, which supports chip forming and removing the chip from the workpiece. The coolant jet works directly on the cutting zone, ensuring the best cutting conditions. Additionally, this method of internal cooling considerably reduces the formation of build-up edge and chipping of the cutting edge. This enables higher cutting parameters when compared with conventional cooling systems and increases tool efficiently.
"When it comes to hard-to-cut materials, the AS45 carbide grade and the EN geometry with chip former also allows good chip flow with long tool life and reliability, even with long engagement times and at high temperatures. The holders featuring internal cooling are available in both right-handed and left-handed versions. Self-clamping or screw-down clamping technologies provide machine operators a simple method to replace cutting inserts with excellent repeatability."
