CVD-COATED CARBIDE GRADES PROVIDE IMPROVED WEAR RESISTANCE IN CAST IRON MACHINING

Kyocera Industrial Ceramics Corporation, Cutting Tool Division (Mountain Home, NC) is offering CA4505 and CA4515 CVD-coated carbide grades of indexable cutting tool inserts for machining gray and nodular (ductile) cast iron. Featuring Kyocera’s Bright Black (BB) coating technology, the CA45-series offers superior resistance to premature insert wear and fractures.

There are several key advantages of the Bright Black CVD coated CA45-series, including:
– Improved CVD coating adhesion provides enhanced anti-peeling performance through optimal layer composition consisting of an ultra-fine TiCN layer, an alpha-alumina layer and Kyocera’s proprietary, special-surface top layer.
– The special-surface top layer treatment reduces material build-up on the insert cutting edge and improves surface finishes on the workpiece, while reducing insert chipping during the machining process.
