Greenleaf’s carbide insert grade G-9610 is designed to deliver increased material removal rates and increased tool life when machining titanium.
Using a PVD coating combined with a submicron substrate, G-9610 is said to provide added productivity for turning titanium-based alloys. The company says the smooth, lubricious coating is wear-resistant and chemically stable, which helps to protect the heat-resistant substrate and enables higher speeds and extended tool life in continuous cuts.
The insert is also said to provide high resistance to built-up edge (BUE), chemical wear, abrasive wear and loss of hardness at high temperatures. The insert is best applied at higher speeds and moderate feed rates. The insert is designed to retain a sharp edge longer, relieving cutting forces and excessive heat.
Inserts in grade G-9610 are available in various geometries and chipforms.
