EID PCBN GRADES
The composition and mechanical properties of EID PCBN have been carefully chosen in order to optimise the cutting tool performance in targeted machining applications. This has been achieved during synthesis, by varying the CBN volume%, the CBN grain size, and the chemical composition of the matrix.
High CBN-content PCBN
Low CBN-content PCBN
EID PCBN Cutting Tool Product Application Areas.
The range of workpiece materials that EID PCBN can successfully machine is constantly ex-panding, but the main material groups are:
-
Hardened steels
-
Hard facing alloys
-
Chilled cast iron
-
Pearlitic grey cast irons
-
Sintered iron
-
Superalloys e.g. Inconel 718
-
Powder metal e.g. automotive valve seats
ETN 35C
• finish machining difficult grey cast irons (milling) and hardened steels
ETN 35N
• severe interrupted turning of hardened steels and die steels
ETN 40C
• continuous & interrupted turning on hardened steels and valve seat
ETN 45N
• turning applications (both continuous and interrupted) of hardened steels and cast irons for superior surface finish
ETN 45C
• finish turning on case hardened steels and crank shaft, cam shaft, and gears
• moderate interrupted hard turning, finish hard milling & high speed
ETN 55N
continuous turning It gives an exceptional surface finish to workpiece and provides toughness to cutting tools
• grooving cam shafts & surface milling (cold work tool steel)
• mild & slight interrupted turning of gear shafts
EID PCBN Products
Successful machining applications have been established in the automotive, aerospace, and manufacturing industries, and some examples are:
High CBN content PCBN
ETN10, ETN16
ETN10
• gray cast iron cylinder boring (GG 20/25)
• nodular cast iron tuning (GGG50, 38-42 HRC with good cylindricity & higher feed rates than other tools)
ETN16
• brake drum tuning (GG20)
• TiAl6V4 exceptionally good for tuning applications
• internal gear tuning with very good surface finish
• ball nose end milling (CF53, 62HRC) with extremely high edge-stability and better surface quality
• sintered geared tuning (SK72-01, 60HRC)
Low CBN content PCBN
ETN35C, ETN35N, ETN40C, ETN45N, ETN45C, ETN55N
