Indexable Drills Top Cut 4™
-V38 Chipbreaker
Productivity
- Eliminates the formation of bird-nesting on the tool in long chip materials drilling.
- Improves the chip formation dramatically to guarantee a smooth chip flow.
- No machine stops due to bad chip evacuation on low carbon steels, stainless steels, and titanium high process reliability.
Performance -V38 Chipbreaker Application Areas
- Larger feed rate window compared to the -V36 geometry when The new -V38 geometry is the first choice when: applied to low carbon steels and stainless steel. The drilling application with Top Cut 4™ platform
- -V38 geometry is available on the inboard insert, as well as on the bodies and inserts is applied to: outboard insert. Low carbon steel (typically P0 and P1).
- Stainless steels, such as AISI304, AISI316, and similar materials.
- Better general hole quality (surface and dimension) thanks to the
- Titanium alloys, like Grade 2 and Grade 5.
improved chip flow:
- Bird-nesting on the tool body is an issue.
- No drifting of the tool body causing deviation in the hole size.
- No contact of the chips with the hole surface causing bad finishing. Vibrations are generated due to a bad chip flow. Chip can’t evacuate
from the hole and generates big noise during machining. Technical Details Bad surface quality caused by the chip in contact with the hole.
- Bigger hole size. Bad chip flow can generate tool drifting.
- PSTS inserts.
- Lower power consumption and less torque are needed.
- Special edge geometry for more effective chipbreaking action.
- First choice for low carbon steel, stainless steel, and super alloys.
- Periphery insert with wiper land.
Disconnected edge with balanced cursive and straight edges.
Donut-shaped, dimple design chipbreaker. 2° rake angle with sharp edge.
