Flank wear (mm) Flank wear (mm) Insert grades Insert grades New grade for heat-resistant alloys and difficult-to-cut materials A CA6535 CVD: For martensitic stainless steel and Ni-base heat-resistant alloys PR1535 PVD: For Ni-base heat-resistant alloys, titanium alloys and precipitation hardened stainless steel Suitable for variety of workpiece materials New development:High toughness Stable machining by preventing sudden insert fracture. Suitable for high-efficiency machining substrate For martensitic stainless steel and Ni-base heat-resistant alloys. High heat resistance and wear resistance with CVD coating. Improved stability due to thin layer coating CA6535 technology. Smooth TiN layer Smooth & less adhesion improved stability Tough α-Al2O3 layer Prevents oxidation and wear of coating layer due to high heat-resistance of aluminum oxide Special interlayer Prevents peeling of coating layer Ultra fine TiCN layer High aspect ratio and micro columnar TiCN coating layer improves abrasive wear resistance MEGACOAT base multi-layer For Ni-base heat-resistant alloys, titanium alloys and composition precipitation hardened stainless steel. Stable and longer tool life by special nano thin multi- layer coating (MEGACOAT NANO) PR1535 Tool life comparison: Longer tool life and more stable machining than competitors Ni-base heat-resistant alloys Martensitic stainless steel 0.40 0.40 Competitor B (CVD)0.35 0.35 Competitor A (CVD) 0.30 0.30Fracture Competitor B (CVD) 0.25 0.25 0.20 Competitor A (CVD) KYOCERA CA65350.15 0.200.15 0.10 0.10 KYOCERA CA6535 0.05 0.05 0.00 0 5 10 15 20 25 0.00 0 5 10 15 20 25 Cutting time (min) Cutting time (min) Cutting conditions: Vc = 50 m/min, ap = 1.0 mm, fz = 0.15 mm/t, wetInternal evaluation Cutting conditions: Vc = 300 m/min, ap = 2.0 mm, fz = 0.2 mm/t, wetInternal evaluation A13
