PcBn for cast iron Machining

Product catalog summary
Overview: The document focuses on the use of Polycrystalline Cubic Boron Nitride (PCBN) cutting materials for machining cast iron, aiming to enhance productivity and reduce costs. It emphasizes the necessity of a comprehensive tool system that includes cutting materials, edge geometry, clamping systems, and tool carriers to endure high machining forces and thermal loads.
SPK PCBN Grades: Various PCBN grades such as WBN 115, WBN 105, WBN 100, WBN 120, and WBN 750 are detailed, each tailored for specific applications in machining grey cast iron (GJL) and chilled cast iron. WBN 115 is highlighted for its thermal stability and toughness, making it suitable for high-performance machining, while WBN 105 is ideal for universal machining of GJL materials due to its excellent wear resistance.
Cutting Data Recommendations: Recommendations for cutting speed, feed rate, and depth of cut are provided for different PCBN grades, focusing on their primary and additional applications in machining various cast iron materials.
Tool Systems - IKS-PRO and IKS-PROTec: These systems are designed for high-performance machining, offering stability and reliable clamping. The IKS-PRO system features a patented notch geometry for simple and reliable clamping, enabling increased cutting speed and feed rates.
Flexibility and Custom Solutions: The document discusses the flexibility of switching between PCBN and ceramic cutting materials without refitting tools, facilitated by the IKS-PRO clamping system. It also highlights the benefits of using a mix of cutting materials for complex machining tasks.
Performance Comparisons: Performance comparisons indicate significant reductions in wear and increases in tool life when using SPK PCBN grades compared to competitors. For instance, WBN 115 demonstrates 75% less wear and over 25% longer tool life in specific applications.
Types of SPK PCBN Inserts: Various types of inserts are described, including solid, multi-tipped, and laminated inserts, each suited for different machining tasks. The document also explains the designation system for these inserts.
Wiper Technology: The use of ZZ geometry, or wiper technology, is highlighted for its ability to improve surface quality and reduce machining times, thereby increasing productivity.
