Kennametal Beyond PVD Grades Advanced PVD coatings using Beyond technology are well suited to resist the high temperatures associated with machining tough alloys. By offering increased tool life (by 30-40%), the general engineering, transportation, aerospace, energy, and earthworks markets can experience benefits in their profitability. They can also realize benefits by utilizing the strength of the new PVD coating in combination with the broad product offering to perform turning, grooving, and cut-off operations in a wide array of materials and applications while maintaining consistent chip control and minimizing insert edge wear. For more information, see pages B2-B115 of the Innovations Master Catalog Cutting Tools 2013. Grooving and Cut-Off : -CL and -GUP Geometries The A2 CL geometry maximizes your cut-off productivity. The A2-CL geometry offers tighter chipbreaker capabilities when machining low-carbon steel, excellent chip evacuation in low-feed applications, and improved stability and rigidity. The A4-GUP geometry, available in molded and precision-ground styles, provides a positive rake angle, enhanced chip control, and lower cutting forces. The -GUP geometry offers up to 180% longer tool life and higher productivity in steel, stainless steel, and high-temperature alloy materials. For more information, see pages A2-CL: D13 and A4-GUP: D70 and D73-D74 of the Innovations Master Catalog Cutting Tools 2013. Kennametal Select Kennametal Select products make it simple to get the most out of your inserts and your money. Every insert is gold, which exposes wear as the tool continues to be used. This makes it easy to detect when an insert is ready to be changed maximizing the product’s value and protecting the workpiece. Also, because Kennametal Select inserts can be used in most applications, a single insert can take on any number of tasks, thus reducing your inventory. Kennametal Select products are also reliable enough to cut steel, stainless steel, cast iron, and high-temperature alloys, enabling quick changes in workpiece materials without the need to swap inserts, saving time and money.
