IS80 CVD Coated Si3N4 IW7 AL2O3+Sic Whiskers

High Speed Rough TurningMain Advantages
on Grey Cast Iron• High hardness (Hv 2,100)
  • Multi-layered coating on IS8 matrix
  • High fracture toughness due to SiC (silicon
  • Roughing and interrupted (1) cutting on cast iron carbide) whisker reinforced ceramics
  • Excellent thermal shock resistance, which enables using coolant and interrupted cut machining
  • Excellent for roughing and semi-finishing operations at 8-10 times faster cutting speeds when compared with carbide grades
  • Good oxidation resistance due to its alumina substrate Cutting Speed (m/min)

IS9 Si3N4 Turning Nickel Based Alloys

  • Very tough Si3N4 ceramic grade with high cutting edge stability
  • Machining on nickel based high temprature alloys, in roughing to finishing applications
  • Honing is the standard edge preparation
