Kyocera PR13 series achieves stable, long-life processing of difficult-to-cut materials

Many high-temperature materials are used in automobiles, airplanes, and power generation. In order to improve energy use, it is a general trend to use high-strength materials to increase mechanical strength, reduce body weight, improve fuel efficiency, and reduce environmental pollution. However, on the other hand, high-temperature resistant materials are prone to work hardening during processing, and the tool life is shortened by using conventional tool materials. For this reason, it is necessary to develop special materials and chipbreakers for machining tools for difficult-to-cut materials. Kyocera's PR13 series for turning can solve this problem effectively.

Kyocera's PR13 has the following three characteristics

1 New tool tip forming FET technology combined with low resistance of MQ, MS, MU chipbreaker, sharp cutting edge, tool tip strengthening, good chip handling, control of burr and boundary wear;

2 The most suitable and uniformity of the special base material particle couple promotes stability and fracture resistance;

3 The latest MEGACOAT coating achieves high temperature and long life in turning.
