NUTEX tools

Product catalog summary
Company Overview: ALESA Ltd. is a specialist in precision cutting tools made from HSS and carbide, focusing on solutions for complex machining challenges. Their product range includes the patented ALESA TWIST helical indexable insert and various Nutex tools designed for CNC centers.
Nutex Tools: The Nutex series comprises Nutex Mini, Nutex, Nutex Plus, Nutex Plan, and Nutex Faset. These tools integrate circular saw blades and holders, enabling machining without protruding fixings. Available in HSS and carbide, they offer hard material coatings to enhance tool longevity.
Specifications: Nutex Mini tools come in multiple diameters and coatings, each with specific part numbers. The Nutex Plus features three cutting edges for deep slots and improved chip flow. All tool holders are compatible with internal cooling systems.
Assembly Instructions: Nutex and Nutex Plus tools can be assembled with or without coolant spreading rings, influencing lubrication and fastening element presence based on the workpiece's edge.
Technical Information: The document includes diagrams for calculating the number of teeth for slot sawing and detailed specifications for each tool variant, including dimensions and compatible holders.
Custom Solutions: ALESA provides custom-made products for specific machining issues, highlighting their dedication to innovation and customer collaboration.
Coatings and Materials Overview: The document details various PVD coatings and their applications for cutting tools, emphasizing the advantages of coatings like TiAlN and AlCrN, which offer high surface hardness and are suitable for tough materials such as stainless steels, cast iron, and nickel-based alloys. These coatings enhance tool life and reduce machining time, resulting in cost savings.
Coating Specifications:
  • TiAlN Coating: Surface hardness of 3000 HV, ideal for tough materials and abrasive conditions.
  • AlCrN Coating: Surface hardness of 3200 HV, suitable for high-temperature applications and materials like stainless steel and nickel alloys.
  • TiN Coating: Provides a surface hardness of over 2300 HV, enhancing cutting speeds and reducing machining time.
Material Classification and Cutting Speeds: The document categorizes materials by tensile strength and provides recommended cutting speeds for both HSS and carbide tools, including detailed tables for various material types such as construction steels, stainless steels, castings, non-ferrous metals, and synthetic materials.
Key Recommendations:
  • Choosing the right coating can significantly increase tool life and metal removal rates.
  • Coatings like AlCrN are recommended for high-temperature and high-stress applications.
  • The document offers a comprehensive guide on coating compatibility with different material types and thicknesses.
Tables and Graphs: The document includes tables detailing possible coatings for circular saw blades based on diameter and width, as well as cutting speed recommendations for various materials, serving as a quick reference for selecting appropriate coatings and cutting parameters.
