Coated SUMIBORON / SUMIBORON for Hardened Steel Machining BNC300 / BN350 H Hardened Steel The Ultimate in Interrupted Machining of Hardened Steel! ■ General Features BNC300 BNC300 CBN substrate that emphasizes on toughness coupled with a highly wear resistant TiAIN based coating layer that has improved adhesion strength. With a good balance of fracture and wear resistance, stable and longer tool life can be achieve in interrupted cut or in a mixture of continuous and interrupted cutting. BN350 SUMIBORON series highest fracture resistance and BN350 toughest CBN. Reliable grade for achieving stable tool life in heavy interrupted cutting conditions. ■ Characteristics BNC300 ● Stable and long tool life in interrupted cutting Achieving stable and long tool life in heavy interrupted cutting, with superior fracture resistance. ● Superior dimensional precision Good adhesion strength, TiAIN based, high wear resistance coating. Achieving superior dimensional precision even in interrupted cutting. ● Suitable for different types of workpieces Achieving significantly longer tool life even on workpieces that have a mixture of continuous and interrupted cutting. BN350 ● Stable and long tool life in interrupted cutting Stable and long tool life with superior fracture resistance, that prevents fractures which commonly occurs during interrupted cutting. ■ Cutting Performance Continuous Cutting + Mid Interrupted Cutting (Interruption Frequency 50%) Heavy Interrupted Cutting (Interruption Frequency 100%) Comp.
