New developments
for cast iron and steel machining
Steel and casting materials are the most frequently used materials in machining production. Some examples are pump housings, compressors or steering systems. The developers at
MAPAL always focus on the economical machining of these large groups of materials, as
two successful examples show
New cutting material series for
milling cast iron and steel components
MAPAL has developed a specially tailored CVD-coated cutting material series for milling
cast iron and steel materials. The new cutting materials show their strengths especially at
high cutting speeds or when dry milling takes place.
The new cutting materials HC760, HC770 and HC775 impress with their extremely heat-resistant α-aluminium oxide coating with excellent layer adhesion and thus extremely long
tool lives. Users can apply them at very high cutting speeds in a significantly higher range
than their counterparts with a PVD coating.
The new cutting materials are also ideally suited for dry machining. Stable machine conditions are required for their use.
