Description
CNMG CARBIDE TURNING INSERTS
CNMG Carbide Turning Inserts are high-performance, indexable cutting tools designed for a wide range of turning operations on CNC lathes and manual machines. Featuring a diamond (rhomboid) shape with an 80° angle, these inserts are typically double-sided, providing two cutting edges per insert for extended tool life and cost efficiency. Their robust carbide construction ensures high wear resistance and consistent machining performance.
KEY FEATURES:
✔ Shape: Rhomboid (80°)
✔ Corner Radius: Various sizes depending on application
✔ Double-Sided: Two cutting edges for longer tool life
✔ Mounting: Screw or clamp style
✔ Coatings: PVD, CVD, TiN, TiCN for enhanced wear resistance
APPLICATIONS:
CNMG inserts are extremely versatile and can be used in numerous industries, including automotive, aerospace, mold & die, and general metalworking. They are suitable for:
• Steel (carbon and alloy steels): Roughing and finishing operations
• Stainless steel: Machining stainless steels with high hardness and toughness
• Cast iron: Gray cast iron and nodular cast iron
• High-temperature alloys: Nickel-based alloys (e.g., Inconel), cobalt alloys, and other heat-resistant superalloys
• Non-ferrous metals: Aluminum, copper, brass, and titanium alloys
TYPICAL OPERATIONS:
• Turning (roughing and finishing)
• Facing and profiling
• Light milling or grooving in some cases
• Threading and contouring
ADVANTAGES
• Durable and reliable: Maintains cutting performance over long cycles
• Versatile: Works across multiple materials and industries
• Cost-efficient: Indexable edges reduce the need for frequent replacements
• High precision: Ensures consistent surface finish and dimensional accuracy
• Wide material compatibility: Ideal for ferrous, non-ferrous, and exotic alloys
