MillQuadFeed – Power Generation Part – U type insert
IMPROVED PRODUCTIVITY
The workpiece is made of exotic stainless steel and has an extremely long machining length.
In an effort to improve productivity, the customer increased cutting parameters using the competitor’s tool, but short tool life prevented any productivity gains.
MillQuadFeed-U type inserts reduced cutting heat by generating thin chips through a low KAPR effect, effectively preventing edge fracture.
As a result, cutting parameters were optimized, leading to a 9 times increase in productivity.
