Product catalog summary
Overview: Hyperion's BZN Compacts line of polycrystalline cubic boron nitride (PCBN) products is designed for machining ferrous materials, enhancing tool life, surface finish, and dimensional control, which reduces part costs and boosts productivity.
Quality and Performance: The manufacturing process adheres to Six Sigma standards, ensuring consistent quality. BZN Compacts are composed of Borazon® CBN particles bonded to a tungsten carbide substrate, providing high wear resistance and thermal stability. Key benefits include increased material removal rates, reduced cycle times, and improved workpiece quality.
Applications: These products are effective on materials such as pearlitic gray cast irons, hardened steel, and superalloys, suitable for various machining applications, offering cost savings and productivity improvements.
Product Selection: A detailed chart outlines BZN grades and their applications, like BZN 6000 for high abrasion resistance and BZN 9100 for impact resistance, each tailored for specific materials and machining conditions.
Grade Characteristics: Each BZN grade is defined by its CBN content, applications, and properties such as abrasion resistance and chemical stability. For instance, BZN 6000 contains ~90% CBN and is used for severe interrupted cuts and finishing superalloys.
Thickness and Availability: The document specifies thickness ranges for each grade and layer option, with additional sizes available upon request.
Cutting Services: Hyperion provides precision cutting services, fulfilling orders within five business days, including cutting standard and custom shapes, through holes, and tight tolerance angles.
Conclusion: BZN Compacts offer versatile solutions for machining hardened ferrous materials, delivering enhanced wear resistance, performance repeatability, and cost efficiency.
