The KS series is a version of SEGLESS with an added machinability enhancer, and demonstrates better machinability than before.
It is suited to high-speed cutting for finishing processes that require high dimensional accuracy.
As the effects are produced with just a small amount of enhancer added, there is no degradation of the mechanical properties.
- 1. Extended lifespan of tools
The amount of tool wear can be reduced compared with conventional additives (MnS), allowing for a lower frequency of tool changes.
Additionally, even for long-distance cutting the surface roughness is maintained at Rz≦6.3μm.
- 2. Can be applied to a wide range of tools
The KS series has been confirmed to be effective with a wide range of tools.
(cBN tools, cermet tools, P-grade carbide tools)
