SUMIBORON/Coated SUMIBORON Sintered Alloy Guidance for SUMIBORON Grades ● Advantages of Sintered Component machining with SUMIBORON SINTERED COMPONENT As compared to carbide or cermet, edge wear is very small for SUMIBORON, which also has better wear resistance and can be form to a sharp edge easily. MACHINING Good machining precision and surface finish can be achieved because SUMIBORON is able to prevent burrs and chipping on the edges of the workpiece.
