Advantages of using CBN

HARDENED STEEL MACHINING In terms of cost investment, it is much lower in machine cost and overhead cost due to the fact that a CNC lathe is cheaper than a grinding machine. As for the quality of finish, inserts can machine different profiles and the finishing is also commendable as compared to grinding. Environmentally, sludge treatment for grinding is a hazard to the environment but for turning, the chips can be collected and recycled. - Application Range Conditions Recommended Cutting Speed (m/min) BNC100 Application
