MillQuadFeed15 – Inconel cladding machining – Flat Top Inserts
IMPROVE TOOLLIFE & PRODUCTIVITY
The competitor’s tool suffered from rapid wear and long cycle times when machining Inconel 625 cladding. To overcome this, MillQuadFeed Flat-Top inserts were proposed. With excellent edge strength, they suppressed chipping even on welded surfaces with variable depths of cut, enabling stable high-feed machining. As a result, cycle time was reduced by 30% and tool life was extended by 30% compared to the competitor’s tool, achieving both higher productivity and longer tool life.
