Cermet-Compressor parts-AT9530

Improved tool life and high efficiency

The customer requested improvements in machining efficiency and chip control.
Testing the combination of a ZF breaker and AT9530 with a cutting speed of 150% resulted in 1.5 times more stable machining. AT9530 showed excellent wear resistance and superior surface finish, leading to a successful replacing from competitor's CVD grade. Furthermore, the ZF breaker significantly improved chip control and evacuation.
