Uncoated SUMIBORON for Hardened Steel Machining B N1000 / BN2000 H Hardened Steel BN2000 ■ General Features An uncoated type of SUMIBORON that has a newly developed high-purity ceramic binder. Both fracture and wear resistance are combined to achieve a stable tool life in a wide variety of hardened steel machining. We offer a wide selection of tools starting with single- cornered types. BN1000 ■ Characteristics ● BN1000 ・ Superior high-speed machining grade with the highest wear resistance of any uncoated SUMIBORON. Sharpness Comparison Delivers excellent tool life in continuous cutting to light-interrupted cutting. ・ Improved fracture resistance while also emphasizing wear resistance. Improved hardness and heat resistance from the high-purity TiCN ceramic binder. ● BN2000 ・ General purpose grade suitable for typical hardened steel machining applications. Provides stable tool life in everything from continuous cutting to light-to-medium interrupted cutting. ・ High degrees of both fracture resistance and wear resistance. Compared to conventional grades, small cutting edge roundness Significant improvements in the performance of both by employing a high-purity ceramic binder. BN2000 Conventional Grade ・ Stable surface roughness by increasing sharpness (Figure on right). ■ Newly Developed High-Purity Ceramic Binder Conventional Grade BN1000/BN2000 Ceramic Binder Cracks High-Purity Ceramic Binder CBN Increased Wear/ Reduced Sharpness Impurities CBN The impurities contained in the ceramic binder for conventional With the newly developed high-purity grades brings about a strengthening in the sintered body and ceramic binder, the BN1000/BN2000 achieve a decrease in heat resistance, which becomes the cause of cracks toughness and improved heat resistance (chipping) and wear. by decreasing impurities to an extreme!
