GWB - Making grooves i hardened steels

Our new double clamped toolholder and vertically mounted Sumiboron grooving inserts maximise rigidity when plunge and side turning grooves in hardened steels. Suitable for a variety of groove widths from 1.5 – 6.0mm our general purpose CBN grade BN250 is recommended for grooving shafts with a continuous non interrupted surface and our coated grade BNC30G should be used for parts with interruptions such as plunging a groove in the periphery of a gear or splined component.

Sumiboron BNC300 / BN350 - CBN grade for interrupted cuts

The punishing demands on an insert turning hardened steel parts with interrupted cuts similar to gears and splines requires outstanding resistance to breakage and wear at the cutting edge. Our newly developed super tough substrate combined with a highly wear resistant TiAlN coating has met the challenge. Sumiboron BNC300 is a new grade of CBN with outstanding fracture resistance and long tool life suitable for continuous and medium interrupted cuts (interruption frequency 50%) when turning hardened steels. For heavy interrupted cuts (interruption frequency 100%) use sister grade BN350.
