CUSTOMER WINS WITH OUR PROVEN SOLUTIONS ITD Engineering Boosts Productivity A CNC manufacturer seeking improved machining performance reported significant wins after using Kennametal’s KCP25C grade for turning. They increased production from 200 to 300 parts per edge, ran faster and harder, achieved effective chip breaking and found the inserts to be more cost effective. They even experienced twice the tool life compared to their previous solution by using this insert that “doesn’t fail, it wears.” Horn Equipment Improves Cycle Times An equipment company serving the oil and gas industry seeking improved cycle times found success with Kennametal’s CNMG insert and KCP25C turning grades. Previously, facing operations required machining for approximately 2.5 minutes on the front side and 1.5 minutes on the backside, but with CNMG and KCP25C they reduced cycle times to just 15 seconds per pass.
