CBN Inserts for Cast Iron Finishing



Tungaloy Corporation has announced the addition of CBN inserts for high-speed cast iron finishing to its TPW/EPW Type milling cutter series.

The TPW/EPW Type series features a 4-corner insert design that balances sharpness and edge strength, enabling high-precision, high-efficiency machining. With a 90° cutting edge angle (KAPR), these cutters are suited for square shoulder milling as well as face milling around obstacles and fixtures. The inserts are available in four types, including the versatile MJ Type, providing stable performance across a wide range of materials. The cutter bodies come in both bore type TPW Type and shank type EPW Type, covering tool diameters from 32 mm to 200 mm (from 1.260" to 7.874"). Additionally, both of coarse pitch type and close pitch type are available, allowing users to select the optimal tool based on their machining conditions.

The addition to the TPW/EPW Type series includes CBN inserts designed for high-speed cast iron finishing. In addition to the economical 2-corner standard insert, a wiper insert option is also available to achieve improved surface finish. The insert grade is high-content CBN BX480, which consists of densely bonded medium-grain CBN. This grade offers high hardness, toughness and thermal conductivity, making it suitable for high-speed machining at cutting speeds (Vc) exceeding 1,000 m/min.
