ㆍ The 1st recommended chip breakers for machining lnconel which remains highly resistant

Feature

ㆍ High positive cutting edge reduces chip contact.
ㆍ Minimized temperature while machining ensures longer tool life.
ㆍ Stable machining with superior chip evacuation in high depth of cut.
 

VP Chip Breaker

The VP Series ensures stability in Inconel and titanium machining.
VP1 / VP2 / VP3 / VP4 is a chip breaker series that features sharp cutting edges ideal for evacuating heat and preventing built-up edges. VP1 is a chip breaker to carry out high quality machining with its sharp cutting edges. VP2 is a chip breaker for medium cutting to finishing, with its characteristics of stable chip control even at varying depth of cuts. VP3 is a chip breaker for medium cutting that provides stable chip control at high depth of cuts, and reduces cutting loads. VP4 is a medium to roughing chip breaker ideally suited for Inconel which remains extremely hard at high temperature over 800℃ and involves severe work hardening.

Advantages

ㆍ VP1: Cutting edges designed in high-positive      - Reduced contact area between rake surface and chip minimizes cutting heat and improved tool life ㆍ VP2: High-positive cutting edge design/Side rake angle applied      - Stable chip control improves machinability when ball machining at variable depths of cut ㆍ VP3: High-positive cutting edge design/Wide land applied      - Improved stability at interrupted cutting when tougness is required. Stable chip control and machinability at high depth of cut ㆍ VP4: Rough machining stability resulting from reinforced cutting edges and wide chip pockets
