oc For machining cast iron with SUMIBORON, cutting speeds (Vc) f = 0,1 mm/rev Crater wear WET should be 200m/min and above. WET cutting is recommended.

(vc ≥ 200 m/min)

Milling

SUMIBORON BN Finish Mill EASY

- High speed machining Vc = 2000m/min

- Surface Roughness Rz=3,2 (Ra=1,0)

- Running cost is reduced because of economical insert

- Easy insert setting with the aid of a setting gauge

- Safe, anti-centrifugal force construction for high speed
